Many students “fall in love” with pastels after taking this workshop! Soft pastels are fun to use, colorful, versatile, and expressive. You'll be introduced to this dry painting medium through two or three exercises on different papers. This workshop is also good as a refresher course for those with some experience.
Create three different interpretations from the same photograph using colorful soft pastel on various papers! We'll be using different papers and styles of application, learning which styles and techniques work best for you. This repeatable workshop is for beginner to advanced levels.
Drawing is the foundation skill for all the visual arts. A lack of drawing skills often relates to a lack of understanding of spatial concepts, and with problems with artistic 'vision' – the ability to create in artwork what is in one's imagination. Learn to see and measure accurately, and some ways to loosen up. We'll explore gestural and expressive mark-making, exaggeration or distortion, and co-operative drawing using the basic drawing tools of graphite, charcoal, pen, and ink. This workshop is appropriate for all skill levels.
