Blue Jay in pastel - by Taylor (grade 6)

Taylore selected the reference photo for this one from a stack of calender pictures, got out her pastels, a piece of blue construction paper and began to draw.  She worked swiftly and confidently in the way of someone who knows exactly where they are going.  Note the strong sure lines she uses to convey the pine needles and her creative and very convincing use of light and dark on the branch to convey the rough texture of bark!
