Art Pastel Course is suitable for beginners.

During the course, participants will practically learn about soft and hard art pastels and theory with oil pastels. Dry pastels beautifully form in color, creating a very soft velvety color drawing. Let's try drawing on different types of paper surfaces. Dry pastel suitable for drawing and painting, where it is necessary to create the impression of a smooth transition (especially for portraits, landscapes, figures).

The greasy pastel is its characteristic closer to painting with oil. Beautifully work with it in detail and a hatch area. Let's try drawing on different colored surfaces.

Oil pastels are very adherent to the substrate and can be heated (hair dryer) or turpentine wash to paint like an oil painting.
