Create Texture with Pastels
Create endless possibilities of textures while working with pastels. Texture can bring up vivid memories of touch. This 4-week session we will be using photos from my very recent trip to Italy as references to focus on creating different textures. Email me with any questions at all: mary@marytelfer.com. Unwind, live in the moment, and have fun by painting with pastels. 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. “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 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. In the scientific study, The Connection Between Art, Healing, and Public Health, Heather L. Stuckey, DEd and Jeremy Nobel, MD, MPH summarize ”art-based interventions are effective in reducing adverse physiological and psychological outcomes." |
