How to Draw Rocks and Boulders
In this video tip, See the Light chalk artist, Jim Pence demonstrates how to draw large rocks and boulders with lecturer’s chalk. He’s also included four short (five-ish minute) YouTube videos with different approaches to drawing rocks with pencil and pen.
Jim is drawing with lecturer’s chalk on bogus paper. You can purchase these supplies at Eternity Arts (eternityarts.com). If you don’t want to buy chalk, soft pastels will work just as well, and you can draw on pastel paper or construction paper.
