Pastels are one of the most immediate and satisfying mediums to work in. They can produce intense, vivid colours or soft and subtle shades. In each session you will be able to experience different techniques using colour and composition that will add atmosphere and depth to your paintings. Learn how to push the colour to create vibrant paintings with ordinary photos.

There will be demos and plenty of one-on-one instruction. The first day we will be using suede board and the second day we will be using a sanded board upon which we will do an under painting. We will be using different techniques each day so come ready to have some fun and experiment.
