This special workshop is exactly for you. Get your fingers ready to smudge soft pastels all over the paper and create this beautiful, vivid, early autumn landscape.
​
Soft pastels are a fantastic technique, especially for beginners or those who would like to try a new technique.
​
Soft pastels are named - DRY PAINTING because each small colourful stick is loaded with a rich pigment. You don't have to worry about water or brushes.
Pastels are not running everywhere; you can layer them, paint boldly, paint details and you have perfect control over them!
​
I promise you, you will love them.

The workshop IS suitable for absolute beginners.
All used supplies are provided, but if you have your own, please feel free to take them with you.​
