Pastel and Watercolor work beautifully together! I love to create a vibrant watercolor underpaintings for my pastel paintings.

But first.... why an underpainting? This is a question I get all the time and this lesson will be a great way for you to get those answers. Here is a summary:

WHY AN UNDERPAINTING?
