What to expect:
Using a range of seasonal animal subjects, you’ll explore layering, blending, and mark-making to bring your work to life. Perfect for creating striking Christmas or winter greeting cards, or a thoughtful handmade gift.

Working on luxurious velour paper, you’ll discover how its unique surface enhances the richness and softness of pastel, making it ideal for capturing realistic fur and feathers.

Learn and develop your skills of observation. You will discover the techniques required to capture realistic animal likeness.

Who is your tutor:

Alongside being an artist, Sam teaches full time, completes commissions and creates within the community.
