Course Description:

This two day workshop will be useful to anyone who has not used pastel; those that have found problems using them or for more experienced pastellers who would like the opportunity to try other papers, pan pastels and learn a few new tips and techniques.
The surface that you use when working with pastel can make the difference between enjoying and being successful with it, or feeling that ‘it doesn’t work for you’. We will investigate what paper and pastel types are likely to suit your emerging style. You’ll also learn about the impact of surface colour on your artwork and the best ways to preserve your work by fixing, mounting and/or framing your piece.
Materials Required:

All tools and materials will be provided at a cost of £10 per head.

Artist’s Profile:

In 1981 Jackie had her first exhibition in Tewkesbury and since then has exhibited her work around the UK and abroad.

She moved to the Forest of Dean in 2001 where she had the opportunity to take over a local art class.

“I have always been interested in trying out different mediums and surfaces and this has stood me in good stead now that I am an art teacher”.

Jackie regularly exhibits with the Society of Feline Artists, the UK Coloured Pencil Society (of which she is a member and has won several awards) the National Exhibition of Wildlife Art (another award!) and has exhibited with the Society of Equine Artists and the Society of Wildlife Artists.

“These successes have spurred me on to further experiment in new mediums, concentrating even more on light, shadows and nuances of colour”.
