Guest Speaker & Demonstration
Tucson Pastel Society (TPS) (Nov. 2024)

Invited to demonstrate and lecture!

This event, sponsored by the Tucson Pastel Society (TPS), will be held at the TPS Art Center in Tucson, Arizona.

PanPastel® Crash Course

Pastel is a medium, used for sketching, drawing, or painting since the Renaissance, not an aesthetic. PanPastel® is the world's first range of pastel colors that can be mixed and applied like paint. They are professional artists' quality soft pastel colors in a unique cake-like or pan format. They may be used by themselves or with the pastel medium.

This demonstration will have PanPastels® available for the audience to experiment with throughout the demonstration. We'll do some mark-making exercises focused on techniques specific to PanPastel® medium and then demonstrate how to use them with regular pastels.
