I did a really quick sketch at the edge of the windy cliffs at Portpatrick. The photo shows a picture of me at work with my lovely Neocolor wax pastels. As you can see they are brand new!! Later I applied water with a brush to the wax pastels as they are water soluable. This brings out the colours and allows them to flow and give the appearance of a watercolour. I am just getting the feel for using these pastels but they are good for working outdoors.
