A unique outdoor workshop where you can develop your pastel skills surrounded by the beautiful Yorkshire Lavender fields in North YorkshireThis is an ideal workshop for artists who want to explore the lovely and versatile media of soft pastels in this unique and spectacular setting in North Yorkshire. There are creative and colourful compositions everywhere!
Hillsides of clipped Lavender stretch into the valley with lovely scenic views of beautiful farmland beyond with woodland and fields all the way to the horizon. Yorkshire Lavender have proved to be very successful in terms of painting subjects over several seasons for my students and it's clear to see when you join us why that is!! We are totally spoilt for choice for great painting subjects in this relaxed and inspiring location.
Whether you are a beginner, intermediate or advanced artist, the tuition you'll receive will help you personally develop your art skills regardless of the media you choose to bring with you. No student will be out of their depth, left behind or otherwise. This is your day and your media - rest assured, I am conversant with so many and will teach you lots!
Demonstrations will be in pastel however so it's worth bringing to learn from practical experience how to put into practice what you'll be watching and being taught but, no dictate, its your choice.
A favourite workshop with students so early booking is highly recommended to secure your place!
