Unwind, live in the moment, and have fun by painting pastel winter landscapes. Make yourself a cup of coffee or tea and make art following along with the lesson/photo of the day, work from your own photo, or simply watch and paint later! The camaraderie of this online class offers a unique opportunity to bring your art to a higher level by brainstorming with each other.
Scientific studies have shown there is a connection between making art and reducing stress in your mind and body. Making art doesn't only make you feel better, it also creates tangible, physical changes in your body and brain.
unwind with art Pastel Waterfalls 4-week Zoom class Mar. 16 - April, '21 Tuesday mornings from 10AM – 11:40AM CST. $60 for the four-week class
Suggested supplies to have on hand:
Some type of pastel paper at least 9” x 12” (I use and highly recommend PastelMat.)
Soft pastels and hard pastels (I use and highly recommend either Unison or Richeson hand-rolled soft pastels and Richeson square (hard) pastels, but use what you have to start).
Tape that won’t damage your paper if you tape it down.
A surface (table, board, or easel) to work on.
Either the image I email you to work from or one of your own.
A smooth non-textured rag (I use a soft t-shirt cut up to about 4” x 6”) and/or pastel blending sticks, tortillons.
A good cup of coffee, tea, or hot cocoa to savor as you create.
“At the deepest level, the creative process and the healing process arise from a single source. When you are an artist, you are a healer; a wordless trust of the same mystery is the foundation of your work and its integrity.” ~ Rachel Naomi Remen, MD
