WORKING IN SOFT PASTEL

30 July 2025

Recently I have had the chance to switch up my preferred medium through my teaching, Working in soft pastels to teach my Mentoring Plus/Creative minds art group. We have studied TURNER and tried to emulate his style in pastels, outside of that I have been using OIL PASTELS to teach my students at school, These are my example of work.. I am quite pleased them.
