Bush,” says Amy Wehrman, Art League Academy Manager. “This is a rare opportunity to explore portrait drawing in soft pastel medium with Professor Vilas Tonape, an internationally recognized artist and teacher.”

 

Participants will learn the basics of creating pastel portraits and how to develop their existing portraiture skills. Professor Tonape will teach layering, color mixing and color theory using a live model, from direct observation. This workshop is for students at all skill levels.pastel Tonape President Bush CMYK
