Pastels are so much more than a springtime color palette! In Painting with Pastels, you’ll discover effective and fun ways to “paint” with soft pastels (not to be confused with oil pastels, which won’t be used in class.) You’ll learn mark-making techniques like shouts and scumbles, watch detailed demonstrations, and receive patient help from your instructor. This class is best for students with some drawing experience.
Students need to purchase materials for this class.
See the materials lists for further information.
