Colourful skies

I found my old box of pastel pencils and thought I'd have a go on this picture of a very colourful sunset

Colours

In this day and age of endless AI possibilities I’m not even sure the photo I based this one on is 100% real, but the colours were too beautifull to ignore the photo. And of course you can do this paint, but the nice thing about pastels is that you beautifully blend the colours. Use them on top of each other and just create these layered colours.

It was basically a study to see what I could do with pastel pencils, but I like the result. Especially the sea, the waves and reflection of all the colours ended up pretty nicely, so it deserves a spot on the website!
