PASTELS

Working with pastel techniques is challenging since they are mixed and blended directly on paper. Errors can't be covered or painted over. There are a lot of different techniques to learn, to name a few - blending, building up layers of colour, highlighting & shading. This summer, Katinka Westhoff has had some introductory courses in working with pastels. Below you can see some of the results.
