Building Bold Landscapes in Soft Pastelwith Alison Crary
November 1 & 2, 2025 | Saturday-Sunday
Times – 10:00 am – 4:00 pm
Experience – All levels of experience are welcome.
Location – Sedona Arts Center, Theatre Studio
Learn how to create bold and vibrant landscapes in soft pastel. This course will be broken into steps to simplify the process. Each step will include instructor demonstration with questions encouraged, followed by student practice, group discussion and individual feedback.
We will start by simplifying the scene into basic shapes and value masses to build a compelling composition from a provided reference photo. The next step will be to explore color relationships, both for the underpainting and the pastel layered over it. These steps will help students gain confidence to build their finished piece, with instruction regarding the painterly handling of pastels to build an impressionistic style landscape painting.
Students will be able to work at their own pace, and more than one painting may be completed during the course depending on the level of experience and working speed of each student. All levels are welcome, although instruction will be focused on beginner to intermediate levels of pastel experience.
