Pastel Workshop (St. Joseph) – Mar ’24

Ready to get back into pastels – or do you want guidance on where to start? This Florence themed class is for you!

This class will have exercises to emphasize the use of the pastels and techniques, and is great for both beginners and those that would like more guidance in their current pastel painting process.

I will discuss materials, show examples of my work, do demonstrations, and have a planned exercise to get you familiar with the materials. Students need plenty of paper so that you have opportunity to produce more than one painting.

I hope to inspire you with my love of pastels, which I have been painting with since I was a teenager. I have been a member of the Mid-America Pastel Society for the last 15 years.

This workshop takes place on Saturday, March 30th 2024, between 10:30am to 4:30pm. Cost is $100 (includes lunch).
