Brief description

This is a level 0 course for beginners. The course explores teh potential of pastes. The rich luxuruious texture of oil pastels and the subtle powdery bloom of soft pastels can each be mixed with other media or their expressive qualities can be combined. Historical and contemporary references, particularly from Welsh artists, will form a basis for research development and encourage visual diary input whilst developing self-confidence. Basic skills will be taught to enable you to progress to courses in drawing and colour at level 1.
