Seascapes: How to Pastel Paint
Greg Maichack will present “Seascapes” a pastel painting workshop for adults and teens 18+. This pastel painting workshop is designed for both sheer beginners to advanced participants.
This all-new “Seascapes: How to Pastel Paint,” is inspired by Winslow Homer’s painting “Summer Squall” and “West Point, Prout’s Neck.” For the first time, we will create the wave effect of spray, embedding pigment particles into the painting. There will be instruction in expressive pastel strokes, blending, slurring, and layering. All will keep their 12x18 pastel painting of their personalized vivid seascape and waves.
