Pastel is a fantastic medium and has the ability to merge painting with drawing. Pastel is a wonderful transition medium when going from watercolor to oils. This workshop is about color, value, and expression. If you already have a good collection of pastels, bring them in. If you are new to the medium, Amery is happy to help you get started. Students are encouraged to bring in a variety of photos with a good balance of light and shadow, as well as simple shapes like the image used for this workshop description. Amery will also provide a number of pictures for the class. The first day will begin with a demo, after which students will work on the same subject as Amery. The remaining days, students will work on a subject of their choice. Students will receive plenty of individual instruction.

Bohling, Amery

Amery Bohling is a full-time artist based in Scottsdale Arizona where she owns Amery Bohling Fine Art Studio/Gallery. Recognized as a skilled artist, her work vividly portrays the enduring strength of the West’s landscapes while skillfully capturing its' light. Most widely known for her vibrant straight forward paintings of the canyon, her work is a combination of old world and new West. Providing a contemporary perspective of traditional western landscapes, Bohling often features local life living within the landscape. Amery’s appreciation of the environment comes from “a desire to paint the landscape in its natural state and to preserve these beautiful locations for others to enjoy and future artists to visit.” She has participated in national and international art exhibitions and is featured in multiple Art magazines including the cover page of Arizona Highway’s February 2019 issue celebrating the Grand Canyon National Park’s Centennial. A sought-after instructor, she teaches primarily at Scottsdale Artists School. Bohling has recently released two instructional videos with Streamline Video/Liliedahl Production: Seascape Secrets and Painting the Grand Canyon. She has also been a main stage speaker at the Tucson and a speaker at the San Diego Plein Air Conventions.
