Korshub's take

Draw a sunset landscape with pastel pencils, step by step

Taught by an instructor with over 30 years of experience, this course teaches you to create a tree sunset landscape using pastel pencils — a medium chosen specifically because it's easy to blend and forgiving for beginners. You'll work with a specified set of Faber-Castell PITT Pastel Pencils and sand-coloured PastelMat paper (or a UART 800 grit alternative), following a provided outline you can trace onto your paper before building up the drawing in layers.

Who it's for

Beginners who want a guided, materials-specific project to build confidence with pastel pencils rather than starting from a blank page.

Key takeaways

How to transfer a provided outline onto your paper before drawing

What do I need?

Pastel Pencils

Pastel Pencils are a wonderful medium, they can be blended easily on top of each other and, because they're in a pencil form, are very easy to use. This subject is classed at an "beginners" level. We have listed all the colours that you need below:

Faber-Castell PITT Pastel Pencils

102 cream
149 bluish turquoise
230 cold grey I
170 may green
165 juniper green
186 terracotta
118 scarlet red
175 dark sepia

Pastel Paper

The paper I use is Sand Coloured PastelMat Pastel Paper (300gms thickness). This is a fantastic paper and can take a lot of layers.

It has a sand paper like texture to it which makes it more difficult to erase mistakes on but the results you can get are worth it. If you do not have this paper you can use your own pastel paper (UART 800 grit is a great alternative).

Outline Drawing

I provide you with a basic outline drawing for each picture. If you wish to use this, simply trace the outline to your paper using a graphite transfer sheet like tracedown (for dark grey paper you will benefit from using a white tracing sheet so you can see the outline more clearly).

Step by Step Instructions

I walk you through step by step with video instruction how to draw each stage. You'll learn techniques behind drawing beautiful landscape pictures and create pictures you can be proud of.
