Further Detail
This one day workshop will introduce you to the fantastic versatility of pastel. Not having to wait for paint to dry or having to mix colours gives you plenty of time to enjoy the session.
During this demonstration you will receive both group and individual guidance and shown how using colour and contrast can reveal shape and attract the viewer’s eye to the focal point of your subject. At the end of the day you will have your own small paining to take home.
