| My Knight in Shining Armour. 19x25. Pastel on sanded paper by Christy Olsen. |
Painting can be fun; however, it is a highly complex process with many elements to consider, such as line, value, shape, size, space, texture, and color. Have you ever modified something in your artwork to discover something is suddenly out of whack?
Let’s try a new approach! Packed with excellent tips and tons of information, Christy Olsen will show us how to work through the elements in the context of relationships rather than in isolation. She will also demonstrate her pastel techniques and cover the basics needed to create a successful pastel using a systems approach.
September 13, 2014 (10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.)
Refreshments served.
