Pastel workshop: Wildflower Meadow (workshop Recording)

Create a Soft Pastel painting of a wildflower meadow with guidance from Tutor Bethany Y Milam. In this workshop you will briefly explore composition to create your own scene from a selection of photos, learn how to build up layers of colour and tone to create a sky and background with a selection of vivid wildflowers in front. Follow the demonstration step by step, using pastel techniques such as sfumato blending and layering.
