Shadow Pastel Workshop with Jude Tolar, PSA, IAPS/MC*

Shadows are important elements in a painting. Shadows enhance light. They bring darker and cooler values to an image, and help define shapes. They can even be the main focus of a painting, as in the pastel painting above.

Watercolor and Ink Class

Come discover the dynamic process of watercolor and ink with a one-day class at the Prairie Art Center.
