Still life painting has been around since images of food were painted on the walls of Egyptian tombs to give the dead something to eat in the afterlife. Impressionists, Post-Impressionists, and Fauvists used still life subjects as an opportunity to play with paint-handling, color, and composition. We will do precisely that as we paint from colorful arrangements based on actual still lifes by 19th and 20th-century masters. Pastel is intensely colorful and can be applied in a myriad of ways, from a fine line to a broad passage of color. This workshop is an opportunity for you to receive individualized instruction in the pastel medium.
