If you’ve never tried pastels, you’re missing out on an amazing medium which combines the control of drawing with the joy of creating paintings filled with rich, vibrant color.
Pastel pigments are most commonly formed into sticks. These sticks function as a type of soft crayon yielding vibrant colors. The word “pastel” actually comes from the Italian word “pastello” meaning “paste” which is used to bind art pigment together to form the sticks. By blending, smudging, cross-hatching and layering, you can create the subtle details of any subject. It’s versatile and forgiving. Perfect for both beginners and seasoned artists.
Learning through Malia’s experience makes the process both enjoyable and gratifying.
Bring a variety of reference photos to class. You’ll use these to create your own painting in this relaxed and encouraging environment.
Malia is a pastel artist from Locust, North Carolina. She has studied pastel painting with many nationally known pastel artists, including Lyn Asselta, Casey Klahn, Karen Margulis and many others.
Malia’s award-winning work has been included in state and national exhibitions. One of her paintings received a first place award in the animal category of Pastel Magazine’s Pastel 100 Competition.
See Malia’s work at Spring Gallery, 50 Spring Street, Concord, NC.
Hours: Thursday - Saturday 11-5:00, Sunday 1-5:00.
