Step-by-Step Pastel Painting Demos


Featured Demo
"Inner Space"

These demos are mostly from my Advanced Pastel Techniques class. I'm one of the few artists who actually prefers to work in public, so I really enjoy doing these.

My demos tend to follow the same step by step format: walking through the basics, such as blocking in the shapes and values, and moving from the broad to the particular. And yet each one is different because the subjects are so different and there are so many aspects of the process one can emphasize and demonstrate.

Click on each finished painting to see its step-by-step development.
