The “CORE” of Soft Pastels
Class | Available
Paint forms photographed in strong, natural sunlight and isolate that edge of light and shadow that makes pastel painting so powerful. Practice layering and glazing techniques that exaggerate illumination and transparency. Describe dreamy, leafy backgrounds, reflective glass containers, and dried, old newspapers. Increase the ‘sizzle' and richness of your colors. This is a ‘how to” technique class. All levels. Printed references furnished. Work at your own pace. Expect weekly demonstrations and friendly class participation. www.lizkenyon.com
