Week 73 - Elephant in Soft Pastel

This week we're drawing an Elephant and we'll make it multi colour by colouring it in soft pastels

Join us every Tuesday morning from 11am to 12.15/12.30pm to draw/paint together every week. It will be a time of drawing and painting and conversation. Complete beginners are very welcome.

If you are able to print out the image to have it beside you whilst drawing, hopefully you'll find this helpful on the day. Otherwise, you can perhaps view it on your phone ?

You can pre-sketch the outline of the shapes if you wish to save time ? I find the black background very severe so I'd recommend making it any pale colour of your choice instead of black
