Techniques for Soft Pastels
Friday & Saturday, November 3 & 4, 9 am–4 pm
with Jude Tolar, PSA*
This two-day workshop will focus on techniques for painting with soft pastels. We’ll work mainly from life, both outdoors ––weather permitting ––and indoors. Ideally, we’ll spend one day outdoors, painting from life (en plein air). And the other day we'll work indoors, painting from life and/or from photos. (Details will be determined closer to workshop time, when we know more about weather.)
I’ll demo each day and work with each artist individually. All levels of experience are welcome, from beginners to seasoned pastelists. Ages 16 and up.
Supply fee: I will bring Art Spectrum ColourFix sanded paper, which you can buy at my cost. This will be about $10 per large sheet (approx. 19 1/2 x 27”). We’ll cut those to smaller sizes (11x14, 9x12, 8x10”). Plan on using at least one, maybe two large sheets.
You are welcome to bring your own paper,
if you prefer. Just please be sure it is sanded paper. See separate Supply List for suggestions on sanded papers.
