$168

 

This course is suitable for beginners and more advanced students. Basics for beginners will be incorporated into the lessons as well as opportunities for more advanced students to stretch themselves.

This term will focus on Composition and Design. Each week we will concentrate on one of the building blocks of strong composition and design so that you can build up a set of tools to guide you when composing your paintings.   We will also look at examples of artists using these design elements.

Students will be encouraged to incorporate  the ideas and techniques in their own work to broaden their understanding of how impactful good composition can be. 

Soft pastels lend themselves to all styles and subjects and are very forgiving for the beginner while offering enormous scope to the more advanced artist.

Come along and explore the joy of pastel painting!
