Soft pastel

Take easy steps with pastel as you work with the limited colours from a starter set on white paper, with Mike Rollins
The finished painting The Lighthouse at Beachy Head, pastel on paper, 12x10in. (30.5x25.5cm)

The starter set. We’ve all received one and it can be a useful addition to a plein-air painting kit, and a chance to try something new and exciting, or a present to pass on to someone else. Whenever I run a workshop and students bring their own supplies, I try to tailor the painting palette to the colours found in a typical starter set. I want to show them how they can produce wonderful art by mixing the limited colours they have to hand.

If they don’t like the medium after trying it, then they haven’t invested too much on materials. If they do like it, they can finish off what they have and add further colours as they gain experience.
