Pastel Workshop
With Clive Scott
Saturday 7th September 2024
10.00am – 4.00 pm
Clive has been using pastels exclusively for seven years and has won several awards in Timaru and Geraldine exhibitions and National Pastel Artists of NZ pastel challenge.
He describes using pastels as “painting with sticks and pencils”
He favours the medium for it’s flexibility and ease of being to able to correct any mistakes easily. The technique is the same as using oils and acrylics but without the need of drying time. Pastels mainly used the dark to light method using pure pigments bound with a fine clay. This results in bright, vibrant colours and stunning results.
The theme of the workshop is “Open”. The subject matter is your choice. Clive is an experienced tutor who will guide you through this exciting day.
The workshop will suit all skill levels.
