So I was looking at some of your Kirby chalk art and...

The colours and shading.

Please

How are they so godly??? Like- DAM

answer: chalk pastels!! normal kiddie chalk comes out super pastel and light, which is fine if you're looking for that color, but soft pastels are so much more vibrant and create a lot of pop!

also keeping in mind to spread out the chalk by furiously scrubbing the concrete with your fingers (OR LITERALLY ANYTHING ELSE) to blend and save on the chalk stick 👍

#i recommend looking at street painting videos for the exact blending techniques :] tbh i dont use a lot of them because its too hot but-#-theyre very cool to look at!!#and thank you sm for the ask <3333 im meltingg srsly this made me get up and doodle some guys on the sidewalk :D #i used the kiddie chalk for the base layer and went on top with soft pastels since the pastel sticks are very tiny #kirby series #veves ultra cool art #kirby #kine the fish #marx kirby #chalk art #being so fr i dont know what im doing with chalk. i treat it like digital art and i know thats not how youre supposed to use it lmao #ask
