The Winter Landscape in Pastel with Liz Haywood-Sullivan

Embrace Winter! If you are a landscape painter in the North you spend a lot of time looking at snow and bare branches. Instead of dreaming of warmer days (they will come) learn how to make the most of what can be a fascinating and beautiful feature of where we live. We will study the color of snow, the effects of shorter days, and how to paint bare branches against the sky, etc. We will paint on black paper and underpaint on sandpaper, exploring winter in its intricacies, and how it relates to pastel painting. Demonstrations and group critique daily, along with indi- vidualized instruction at your easel. All levels welcome!
