Have you been curious about pastels, but would like a fun, non-judgemental atmosphere in which to learn? This class is for you whether you're a beginner who has never tried pastels or an experienced artist who needs some motivation to get painting again by being with other creative people.
I will demonstrate some techniques then guide you to bring out your own artistic style. Using photos as a guide, you will be the filter through which the feelings of the landscape are transformed to produce an image that is completely yours.
All supplies are included in this 3-hour workshop provided by the Richeson Company in Kimberly, Wisconsin.

Green Bay Packers colored flower. Go Packers!
I feel extremely grateful to have been here. My cousin, Ron took this photo a few days ago while we walked on the beach. The view was spectacular. Being there gives me a perspective that I get nowhere else. My cousin, fortunately, appreciates living here every day!
My fabric earrings have a painting-inspired fabric on each side (in case the wind blows!), sugical steel hooks and a lightweight coating so they're both durable and comfortable. Each pair - each earring, in fact - is unique. They range from sublte, muted florals to bold patterns and images, from small to over-sized.
