Edgar Degas took his pastel work very seriously. Leonardo da Vinci used black and red chalk with yellow pastel highlights. The goal of this class is to introduce pastels and the many ways they can be used. Each student will develop their own style, no matter the subject, still life, landscape, seascape, figure or portrait. For the first half hour of each class we will critique work created the week before. As a group we will discuss each others artwork. This is a great time to talk about you, the artist, and briefly discuss your next step. This is also a great time to observe each other’s work and maybe even pick-up something new that a fellow student might have suggested.

Fluid Acrylic on Yupo does amazing things. Using bought, unexpected and handmade brushes attached to long handles allows you to not stress too much about your marks. I can’t promise that you will leave with a finished piece but you will have ideas to carry you forward and you will have had a fun two hours. All supplies will be provided.

Bring your “not so happy with” works on paper and let’s see if we can make them into something you are happy with. Watercolor crayons and Distress Oxides are both opaque and can cover whatever you don’t like. Stencils and stamps can sneak in on even the most traditional of paintings. Sometimes just changing the color with a transparent color can brighten things. Stamps, stencils, watercolor crayons, Distress Oxides and whatever else I think of will be provided. Let’s try some new things!
