Painting with Pastels Workshop

This one day course explores the painterly qualities of both soft chalk pastels and oil pastels. Suitable for both beginners and more experienced artists, you will be able to work from direct observation of simple arrangements of botanical forms such as fruit and leaves and also from landscape using photographs.

The morning session will cover botanical still life with some basic taught drawing techniques included and the afternoon session will be devoted to landscape. Working at your own pace with individual tuition, you can enjoy the historic setting and relaxed atmosphere of the Undercroft Learning Centre at Worcester Cathedral.

All art materials are provided and there is tea and coffee on arrival. You will also be given card mounts to present and take home your finished artworks.

The course for 12 students begins at 10.30am and finishes at 4.30pm.

Cost inclusive of all materials is £50.
