Pastels with Roger Jones26 February 2012 A workshop with Roger Jones - Sunday 26 February in the Studio We advise you to book early for this Pastels workshop as it's likely to be extremely popular! Roger Jones will explore the tonal build-up to a pastel painting and then show how a competent sketch can be 'dressed' using pastel pencils and sticks. Roger will provide reference material but is happy for you to bring your own if you wish. He doesn't want to impose a materials list but it may be useful for you to know that he plans to use water-soluble graphite penciles/magic markers, pastel pencils and sticks and, of course, suitable rough-surfaced papers. His website www.roger-jones.co.uk is a useful introduction to his style of painting. The cost is expected to be around £22, dependent on numbers attending. If you would like to attend, please email David King as soon as possible.
