  3. HOLDING PASTELS • Hold the pastel like you would a pencil • Thickness of lines depend on the amount of pressure you put on the pastel • Careful though – pastels break easily

  4. BLENDING/MIXING COLORS • Mixed directly on your paper • Two types • Optical mixing – colors next to each other appear to blend together • Blending – pastels are mixed on the paper

  5. HOW TO BLEND • Smudging with your fingers • Keep your fingers clean to keep from contaminating other colored areas • Blending tools • Tortillion or paper towel • Lifts a lot of the color off of the paper.
