“Pastel Plus” Workshop with Roe Gartelmann

At Hahndorf Academy on Feb 3rd 10am till 4pm $60pp bookings with rachel@hahndorfacademy.org.au

This will be a Contemporary approach to working with Pastels;

With lots of Colour.

It is suited to any level of experience. A knowledge of traditional pastel methods would be helpful but is not essential.

We will be exploring a variety of new techniques. These may include other media (see list), and the aim is to push beyond your comfort zone.

Come along, experiment and have Fun!
