Drawing Still Life in Soft Pastels with Lisa E. Fretwell

Would you like to draw a still with a professional illustrator and teacher?

During the first part of this workshop, I will show you, in easy steps, how to use soft pastel pencils, and how to shade shapes to make them look three dimensional.  You will learn how to draw in a relaxed and friendly environment working from a still life set up. 

During the day, you will learn how to really look and measure. How to make shapes look three dimensional just by the way that you shade them! Finally, I will show you how to add more texture to make your drawing look real. 

All materials are included in the price of the workshop, including soft pastels and of course, paper!

You will be amazed at how quickly time goes when you are absorbed in this activity. It’s fun, relaxing and you will leave with some beautiful samples and a completed still life drawing!
