Clive Eastland

I have been a professional artist for the past 17 years. I enjoy painting a wide range of subjects in pastel using the purest form of painting material there is. Inspired by nature and using the virtually pure pigment of pastel, I love to capture the elusive qualities of light and shade, enjoying the transformation that occurs when something I see in reality or imagination comes to life in a painting. Working in small groups, I like to enthuse my students by teaching in an informal and interactive manner which shows the fun and enjoyment that working in pastel can bring.
