OIL PASTEL TECHNIQUES
Course of 6 weekly classes
Dates: February 21 & 28, March 7, 14, 21 & 28, 2023
Time: Tuesdays 9.00am till 12.30pm

Tutor: Wendy Leach 
Location: 
Mangawhai Art Workspace, 45 Moir St, Mangawhai

This 6 week course focuses on techniques with oil pastels, an expressive and painterly artist material. Oil pastels are not dusty like chalk pastels.  They are creamy and oily, and luscious to use.
In  this course I will share my process and my secrets for creating vibrant oil pastel paintings.
Tuesday 28 March 2023. Fun with Fauvism.                     

​My Oil Pastel Techniques course ended today. The group produced these paintings in today's final class. I am so thrilled with them. It was a fun exercise to finish our course. Each pastel artist chose a Fauve painting to work from. Think colour and energy! Here are the finished works with the original artist, painting and year referenced.
