Introduction to Soft Pastels

Join artist Natalie Charles for a dynamic introduction to soft pastels, working through a series of exercises to help you find your own way with this versatile dry medium. Using still life setups as reference, you'll explore techniques for describing shape, tone and texture, and learn to build a personal colour palette, drawing inspiration from artists across art history and today.

Drop in for a single session to try pastels and learn new techniques, or book the full course to work through the exercises week by week and develop your own approach to the medium.

Suitable for all abilities, whether you're new to pastels or refreshing your skills.
