Studio Courses in Pastels
Pastels I, II, III and IV
Needing a prior knowledge of seeing and interpreting values, this
course teaches techniques of applying and blending pastels for
achieving the most brilliant colors possible. Major emphasis is
placed upon sequence of application as well as procedures for blending.
As class advances, techniques using various surfaces and a variety
of different pastels will be explored. Preparing your own surfaces
and learning a variety of under painting approaches will be covered
in this very versatile medium. Once the elementary techniques have
been acquired, students begin working independently. Good drawing
skills are important for rendering realism, while some abstraction
of form and utilizing design as a focus, will be included in these
lessons. Classes run sequentially and build on prior skills learned
from previous classes. |
