In this video I'll be sharing tips on how to draw fur in pastels which can be transferred across to any other fur texture. Drawing fur in pastels relies on layering, contrast and pencil technique all of which I'll cover in this video. The key techniques are crucial when drawing photo realistic portraits and can make a huge difference to how three dimensional a portrait looks when finished. I'll be demonstrating all of this on Jasper the Springer Spaniels pastel drawing =).
