Oil Pastels only using two colours, Pink for shadows and Orange for lighting. We were looking at distances from the roof of the university building. When doing great distances I prefer to use water colours, but we weren't in the best place for that so I went for oil pastels and charcoal. I feel I were able to create a nice line to show the slops and dips of the Bradford landscape




















Taking a closer look at the spire from the church using charcoal pencils, creating detail and depth.



I prefer this landscape rendition in contrast with the oil pastels, it shows a lot more volume in the sketch, showing better distance. The oil pastels are a solid colour no matter how much pressure you use the colour doesn't vary much, unlike charcoal there are many different pitches of colour and shade you can get, just by changing the ammount of pressure used.
