About this Event
Be inspired by the simple beauty of the season. Join us in exploring the rich colours of the autumn landscape. Capture the vibrant russets, violets and golden yellows building layers and becoming more confident with the versatile , beautiful medium of soft pastel.
Discover the vibrant world of soft pastels in this relaxed workshop that is great for beginners and those wishing to refresh their skills. Whether you're completely new to art or looking to explore a new medium, this hands-on session will introduce you to the basic techniques of working with soft pastels. You will learn how to build layers of colour, create depth and atmosphere, and develop confidence in handling this wonderfully versatile medium.
Soft pastels are loved by artists for their rich pigments, immediate results, and expressive qualities. Unlike many other art materials, pastels allow you to work directly with pure colour, blending and layering to create everything from delicate transitions to bold, vibrant effects.
During the workshop, Anita will guide you step-by-step through the process of creating your own pastel artwork while sharing tips and techniques that will help you continue your creative journey at home.
