Learn what a "Smudge" can do!
The OIL PASTEL SMUDGE technique that I will be sharing with you is an easy, straightforward, simple-to-learn artistic style working with oil pastels, and smudging the color onto the final piece with a template we make ourselves. This is able to give us the distinct hard lines you see in the samples above and on the OilPastelSmudge.com website. In class you will learn to create beautiful landscapes, floral art, abstract works and more in minutes, whether you are a beginner or have some experience as an artist or working in pastels.
It is great fun to "SMUDGE" and OH the art you will create!
Learn to view the world and art differently as you finish five to eight images ready for framing, cards and gift giving in a small private / group environment with 1-5 individuals.
