Pastel gives a beautiful soft texture to any canvas/paper with a myriad of colors available through blending and creative techniques. From artists like Degas to Toulouse-Lautrec and even Picasso this medium has enjoyed a long history. In this class we will explore some of the options and techniques in pastel used for creating landscapes, portraits and abstracts. If you previously took the Art sampler class, this will take the exploration of using pastels in art further and give you more detail and experience with pastels. Materials will be provided. $10 for material fee will be collected by instructor at time of class.
