Let's Learn Soft Chalk Pastels.
About the Event:
In this beginning class you will learn the basics of using soft pastels, what supplies work best, and how to create wonderful effects. This is a fast-working medium, and most projects can be completed in just a few hours or less. You will learn different strokes, how to blend and when not to and how to capture light. We will do florals, landscapes and still life. We will also learn how to preserve and frame your work.
Week 3: Let’s Start a Landscape Seasons 1
This will be our spring or summer landscape.
In this class we will:
- Learn the basics of landscape drawing and how to get that depth in your picture.
- Briefly discuss perspective and how to underpaint and get that “glow” in your work.
- Develop your composition of mountains, trees, water and beautiful skies.
Here is a list of recommended supplies, although you are welcome to join the class if you are unable to obtain them all. This list will also be sent in your confirmation and reminder emails.
