About the event
BIG PETALS PASTELS “Big petals” will take you on a journey of the pastel medium to create extraordinarily beautiful, colorful flowers reminiscent of O’Keeffe’s abstract florals. We’ll start with a brief history, terms and some basics of drawing Next we’ll learn about value, volume, and color then work directly from fresh flowers to create our masterpieces! Students will finish the workshop with a completed painting to take home. NO PASTEL EXPERIENCE IS REQUIRED.
Bring a favorite orchid (Trader Joe’s has a great supply!) or rose from your garden (I’ll bring some from my, Dorothy’s, garden) and draw an enlarged flower!
