Sometimes the work won’t look perfect — but progress > perfection every single time.
A messy start still gets you higher than waiting for the “perfect” moment.
Just take the step. 🚀✨

Beginning Oil Pastel

Scott Turner

November 23

Oil pastels are probably the most misunderstood and underappreciated medium. Many artists, when asked about oil pastels, think of a mixture of oil paint and soft pastels. The average person thinks of crayons because their first exposure to them is with a student-grade version and so assume that they are hard to work with. Misconceptions abound. The truth is:
• Oil pastels are dynamic, vivid, versatile, and extremely forgiving
• Oil pastels will expand your range of artistic expression
Geared for those who love to work with their hands, you squash, push and blend oil pastels with your fingertips as well as apply texture, carve, scrape and cut away with a palette knife. Three basic techniques are taught in this one-day class for creating everything from photo realistic portraits to lush landscapes to eye popping abstracts, but the focus is on landscapes. By the end of the day, you may even join the growing number of converts to this wonderful medium.
