Summary

Join Carol on this exciting opportunity to paint in pastels in the Barle Vally

in the heart of Exmoor National Park.

Details

This 4 day course will be predominantly studio based but as the hotel is

situated in Simonsbath looking down the Barle valley with plenty of

painting potential around the hotel, we hope to venture outside to gather

reference material. You may choose to go for a walk, sketch or

alternatively remain in the studio to work from reference photographs.

We will probably get out for a couple of half days into the Barle Valley

(weather permitting) or you can have some 'down time' if you prefer.

Carol will demonstrate the various stages of painting a subject using

pastels and will give plenty of one-to-one tuition throughout. She is a

highly accomplished Artist in this medium, producing images which are

detailed and realistic. She will show you how to get the best out of your

pastels using many techniques including 'pastels with water', sgraffito

plus how to use pan pastels. Carol is flexible in her tuition and will adapt

to the needs of the group so that all will gain in confidence and see

progress with this medium.
