In general, I usually like to have a plan and that’s true for the way I work with pastels, though at times I will leave things out of the preliminary sketch because it’s something I can just figure out as I go, like a monotonous background, or a pattern on a fabric. It’s things like proportion and perspective that I try to determine ahead of time, because pastel paper can only take so much erasing.
