A one day workshop exploring colour and texture in pastel. This course is an opportunity to learn how to draw and paint a beautiful animal, creating paintings based on strong design and a creative approach to colour and texture using a variety of techniques related to Pastel. We will explore painting fur, water, and strong contrasts.

As I will be teaching techniques from basic principles this is a course for all levels of ability and would make a great gift.

 

Using a strong subject will allowing us to concentrate on texture, tone and detail. The slow development for the drawing is an opportunity to relax, find a still space and simply draw with beautiful results.

Before the course I will email more information including the Zoom Link (the workshop will be delivered on line through Zoom) a materials list, photography, a gridded photograph to help with the drawing and a printable outline drawing.

For course members who would like it, for £10 I can supply and outline drawing on Pastelmat and an A3 photograph. Please ensure I am informed at trevorozzi@icloud.com , at least a week before the workshop

The course will start at 10am and finish at 3.30pm
