Workshop with Fang Sullivan

Pastel Still Life Workshop – Harmonies in Broken Color

This fun, hands-on one-day workshop is great for all levels and explores the broken color technique, developed by the Impressionists, to create vibrant, lively subjects without smudging. Elevate your pastel skills to the next level—by the end of the workshop, you’ll be confidently using pastel color layering and mixing techniques to bring your still lifes to life and develop your own artistic style. Bring your pastel —any soft pastels and/or NuPastel sets, with primaries and a full range of values, any toned pastel paper, and a curious heart. No oil pastels please.
