    Join Accomplished Instructor Colette Savage in this versatile beautiful medium. Get a beautiful softness similar to a Degas’, or photographic realism. Pastels are considered a form of painting, yet you have the control of a stick or pencil, making it more like drawing. Learn about different substrates to paint on and different types of pastels and how they react. Beginner to intermediate.
