    The views from the sky are enchanting and inspiring: the winding country roads, the patchwork of ranch land, and wandering sinews of waterways. Celebrate the view of your house from the sky with the brilliant colours of soft pastels!

    The patterns seen from this vantage point provide an interesting launching point for composition and a great opportunity to play with a fairly new and luscious medium, PanPastel. These are highly pigmented soft pastels that mix and layer like paint, using special sponges and tools to get the fluid textures for this project.

    Google Earth lets you fly to a birds-eye view of almost anywhere on the planet. To find and print a map, use this tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUgik2taMQw
