Supply List:

- Small all-purpose eraser (pencil erasers are great) for preliminary sketches
- Pastel set – Soft and/or hard pastels. WE DO NOT USE OIL PASTELS. Student-level sets okay – should contain variety of darks & lights.

- Optional:
- Single sticks of dark pastels since many sets don’t contain darks.
- Kneaded eraser
- Drawing board, foam core board, or any rigid surface to go under the sanded paper - larger than 9 x 12.
- 1” blue painters tape to attach paper to the board

"These classes are designed for aspiring and experienced artists who want to learn a technique that will help "jump-start" their creativity. As a lifelong educator and practicing artist with a degree in Art Education, I am passionate about helping others overcome their fears about starting a painting and sharing techniques to improve painting.
Using pastels, I guide participants to simplify what they see and capture the essence of their subject by focusing on the darks, lights, and mid-tones. Although geared toward individuals with a minimal art background, experienced artists enjoy and benefit from this unique program. The concepts and strategies taught can be applied to oil, acrylics, pastel, watercolor and any art medium." - Janet
