This session blends history, material understanding, and practical technique into a single, inspiring experience. All participants will receive free samples of Rembrandt Soft Pastel and be entered to win a 60-piece set of Rembrandt Soft Pastels.
Students will learn and execute a variety of pastel techniques which they will combine in a final take home project. They will also receive samples of pastel and pastel paper to use during the demo and take home for further exploration.
