Workshop Basics


Need an introduction to art basics or just a refresher ?  For the benefit of my workshop students, I am creating some videos and posts at my blog, Pastel Workshop.  When I do critiques, these are the formal elements of art that are referenced.  


Video.
Line.
Shape.

More to come.

Howzitgoin? Just making coffee on a Sunday morn. How about this phrase: Pigment of your imagination? (the coffee is not finished yet, as you can tell.) Workshop Basics: 1. build your workshop 2. fill with pastel spectrum 3. let art flow. 4. name each one 5. alphabetize.

I like the simplicity.

One lump or two in your coffee?

1. Johnnny likes to start simple and then add to it.
2. Johnnny likes some chocolate milk in his coffee. I call it the poor man's cafe mocha.
3. How about this one: The present and future of pastels?

In Naples, they would shoot you for doing that to your coffee. I find it hilarious, though.

Good title. I will steal it soon.
