Tutor Clive Eastland
10am - 4pm
This one-day onsite workshop is suitable for complete beginners and those with experience
Workshop Details
This 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. Clive will work on his own piece during the session so students can observe the process of development using this versatile and accessible medium, whilst offering abundant guidance along the way. You will be shown a variety of methods and techniques of pastel application to help interpret the different surface textures of old stonework and flaking paint in a rewarding and convincing manner.
Skills/Techniques Covered
Materials
Materials are not included in your booking fee.
The tutor will supply the pastelmat to work on at £1.80 per sheet. He will also have for sale a limited range of pastels of some of the required colours needed for the course that are not normally supplied in starter sets to be payable to the tutor on the day. The tutor may not have the facilities to take card payments for materials in the workshops. Please remember to bring cash or your cheque book.
Please Bring With You
We advise that you do not buy any materials required for a course more than two weeks in advance, because occasionally a course is cancelled due to low enrolment.
