4- Week workshop – June 3 – Member $110 Non-Members $140 – 9am to noon.
Painting pets with pastels can be a delightful and rewarding artistic endeavour. This course will explore creating images of some of our best friends with the lovely medium of soft pastel. This workshop will investigate the properties and limitations of pastel including mark making, blending with fingers and brushes on small pieces of Canson and colour fix. We will be considering colour schemes, as there is little opportunity to mix colour, and what impact does the colour of the paper have on the colours of the pastel, the lightness or darkness of the paper will determine whether your working on shadows first or leaving your lights out. Participants are encouraged to bring an image of their best fur friend, or feathered friend.
