Pastel Still Life and Collage | Tricia Reust
Over the course of the weekend, we will look at brief theory of design, particularly for collage; how pastel can be used as a wet medium as well as dry.
Tricia’s teaching process includes theory, handouts and demonstrations.
What will I learn?
Pastel techniques especially stroke-making and brief colour theory.
Working over the two days on exercises and one larger still-life work, participants can choose to work in a traditional manner or a more contemporary approach.
Who is this workshop suitable for?
This workshop is suitable for beginners and experienced alike as Tricia's teaching process is that she provides a handout, covers theory and demonstrates every single step beforehand as you go along in the drawing process. Tricia spends as much time with each participant as possible.

What is provided
- Tea and coffee (please bring your own cup)
