Twisting and turning
By changing which part of the pastel you make your marks with, and twisting and turning it to make these changes, you can get varied and exciting marks.
Have a go, and notice the different qualities of mark that you can make. Imagine that you are making the pastel ‘dance’ on the paper, and keep varying the pressure that you apply.
