Plein Air Pastel in High Falls

Workshop

ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP:

Two seven hour sessions at Marlene’s farm in High Falls, beginning with a discussion of materials, including soft pastel choices, paper samples and details of storing and framing pastels. Methods and various tools used will also be discussed. Frequent demos, group exercises and individual instruction.

This workshop emphasizes balance and values to describe the rich spring landscape of showy gardens, a quiet pond, and the magnificent backdrop of the Shawangunk Ridge. Possible excursion to the Falls in the town of High Falls. From initial sketches, to under-painting with pastels, to a completed work, looking as part of process is stressed. Plein-air, weather permitting. All levels. Pack a lunch. Overnight accommodations across the road, please contact: http://www.clovecottages.com or email wiedenbaum@aol.com
