'Pastel Sampler' Workshop

Alice Kelsey painting with pastel
I'm one of three artists teaching a pastel workshop this Saturday, and am really looking forward to sharing the wonders of this medium, and creating in general! I'm also eager to talk with other artists, and learn of some of their discoveries and approaches. I'll be covering basic pastel techniques, and sharing the stages of development of several of my works with photos at various stages- I learn a lot from this process, and hope that others will too! I'll also be doing a hands-on demonstration of starting a new painting. Anne Kenyon will focus on materials available to pastel artists, and Marianne Fyda is doing a still life of artful dessert items (and we get to eat the still life when she's done!). The workshop is co-sponsored by the Art Alliance of Central PA and the Central PA Pastel Society, and I just heard that it is filled- sounds like a fun day to be among a tribe of artists!
