Learn the art of drawing dark subjects in this BONUS LIVE Event
These skills are fundamental to creating realistic and dynamic art. Black subjects challenge you to master light, shadow, and contrast, as their dark surfaces reveal subtle reflections and tonal shifts that aren’t immediately obvious. These nuances force you to look beyond “black” and explore the interplay of colors like blues, grays, and browns, honing your observational skills and understanding of color theory.

MEET THE artist
Hey, I'm Rob Ballentine
I'm holding Alice in the picture here, she was the first picture that when I finished I said "Wow! I did that!". And she reminds me just how capable anyone can be after they start their journey with pastel pencils.
I started drawing pets and animals by accident when I was 53, right during the Covid pandemic. What began as a simple portrait for a friend unexpectedly went viral, and suddenly, I was flooded with commissions. That’s when I realised I had to learn fast - not just to improve my skills, but also to speed up my process because the requests just kept coming.
The only problem? I had zero experience with pastel pencils. In fact, I hadn’t drawn since high school, so it all felt incredibly overwhelming. Maybe you can relate – I remember thinking, “Doesn’t it take years to get good at this?” But let me reassure you: it doesn’t have to take years. You can get good quickly – and you can do it today!
I spent months studying the pros, trying to figure out how they were able to produce such amazing work. And I cracked their secret! I discovered a methodology behind their techniques, the foundations they were working from. Things I wish I had known when I first started. And that’s exactly why I created the Book Bundle.
I want to share everything I learned, so you don’t have to go through the same struggles I did. Understanding why we do what we do as artists is the foundation of becoming great with pastel pencils – or any medium. Too often, we're taught to dive right into techniques without understanding the underlying principles. Trust me, this was the mistake I made, and it’s one I want to help you avoid.
In the Book Bundle, you’ll learn these essential foundations that will give your artwork purpose, direction, and meaning. This is the kind of knowledge that will set you up for success as you start your pastel pencil journey – and help you grow much faster than you might expect.
So if you’re ready to dive in and start creating beautiful art that’s full of purpose, this is the perfect place to begin.

I purchased the book bundle and was really pleased with it all. It included information on software I could get to adjust the photo I would use and identify the colours used. The books are full of information about drawing with pastel & information about what is important gaining commissions. It’s well worth the money & I’m really looking forward to getting started. I’m just waiting for my pencils."

Why I chose Pastel Pencils over other mediums for realistic portraits
I found Pastels are a wonderfully forgiving and versatile medium. You can create everything from bold, vibrant portraits to soft, delicate landscapes. And they don't take hours and hours to get good.
With the right techniques, pastels allow me to capture beautiful textures like fur, glassy eyes, and even lifelike landscapes. You'll also find they're the best for realistic portraits and don't take as long to create a portrait as other mediums like coloured pencils.
I discovered that Pastel pencils allowed for superior blending, making it easy to create smooth transitions, soft edges and realistic textures. The powdery consistency makes it easier to layer and build up colours.
What I loved about them is that Pastel pencils are vibrant due to their high pigment content. The matte finish and soft texture create a painterly, luminous effect that you'll also find is ideal for expressive art and realism.
There's no doubt that mistakes can be easily corrected by erasing or lifting the pigment - this was a life saver!
They work so beautifully on textured paper, allowing for a variety of effects, from fine details to painterly strokes that just made the portraits pop. They're excellent for creating depth and texture in subjects like fur, feathers or landscapes.
Cutting down on time was a big one for me and istant coverage and bold colours without the need for heavy pressure or layering, making the time-efficient for large areas and detailed work alike just perfect!

WHY USE COLOUR CHARTS?
Using colour charts and books with multiple reference images taps directly into how the brain learns and processes visual information, making it an incredibly powerful tool for mastering pastel pencils. Neuroscience shows that visual learning and repetition strengthen neural pathways, enhancing your ability to recognise and replicate subtle variations in colour, tone, and texture. Colour charts provide a structured framework for your brain to categorise and match colours, which accelerates your ability to make intuitive choices while drawing.
Working from our colour chart books and reference images offers the kind of repetition and diversity that trains your brain to recognize patterns across different subjects, improving both your observational skills and artistic versatility. These methods combine the best of structured learning and creative exploration, activating both the logical and creative sides of your brain, leading to faster, more confident skill development.

Frequently Asked Questions
I'm a complete beginner. Will these books be too advanced for me?
No, these books are designed with beginners in mind. They cover foundational techniques like creating realistic eyes, noses, and fur textures, and include step-by-step instructions that make the learning process approachable. Additionally, they provide line art and reference images to help you start immediately, even if you’ve never drawn before.
I’ve struggled with art in the past. What if I’m just not talented enough?
Talent isn’t a requirement! These books focus on teaching skills and techniques that anyone can master with practice. They also encourage embracing imperfections and learning with true tries and tested methods - no trial and error which is why most people struggle, fail or don't achieve the results they want, helping you overcome self-doubt and perfectionism.
I’m worried about wasting money if I don’t use all the materials.
The bundle includes a materials guide that ensures you purchase only what’s necessary, saving you from overspending. It also recommends affordable, high-quality tools, making it easy to start without breaking the bank.
I don’t have a lot of time to dedicate to learning. Will this work for me?
Yes! Each book is concise (40-75 pages) and focuses on actionable steps, allowing you to learn in manageable chunks. You can dip in and out of the content at your own pace without feeling overwhelmed.
Can I really achieve professional-looking results from just books?
Absolutely. The bundle includes techniques used by professionals to create realistic portraits, like mastering bokeh backgrounds and fur textures. Plus, bonus tutorials and high-resolution reference images give you everything you need to create stunning artwork.
I don’t see how this could be worth the investment.
