Water Soluble Hard Pastels Class - Creative Fun With Charvin Pastels Kit
Jerry's LIVE Episode #152: Water Soluble Hard Pastels Class - Creative Fun With Charvin Pastels Kit!
Everyone had so much fun with the Soft Pastel JL146 Paint Along Class, that they asked for other free classes... Amy came up with this fun kit that’s perfect for travel (it even has its own zippered carry bag) that you can use as a wet or dry media! Charvin Pastel Painting Sticks are a great set of 24 colors, offering the versatility of being water-soluble for washes or painting, but are as enjoyable dry as they are wetted. This class will involve a basic still life using the kit components, where we will work step by step together.
How do you keep your paintings looking vivid and bright? With this easy finishing touch, Allen will teach you how to apply a glaze or varnish to your paintings once they are completed. By adding a varnish, you are preserving your painting for years to come, keeping the canvas hydrated and making them easy to clean. Using your Reel Art Academy Set for Allen Montague, you will have everything you need to learn and bring all your paintings to life!
