Join LANDSCAPE WEEK for a taste of what the Painterly Landscape Course has to offer!
The Painterly Landscape Course is a great fit for you if:
You're NEW TO PASTEL and you want to avoid the pain of wasted time and ineffective methods by getting it right the first time.
You've BEEN STRUGGLING with your PASTEL PAINTINGS for a while now, and you know it's time to break through once and for all.
You know that a MORE PAINTERLY STYLE is what you're after, but perfectionism has been getting in the way making you wonder if you'll ever reach your dream of expressing your own creative voice.
You've been looking for a guide and a CLEAR PLAN to help you accomplish your goal of creating looser paintings, and you're willing to put in the work to see breakthrough results.
Alain’s course is extremely well planned, engaging, and valuable for all levels. Alain is very thoughtful and encouraging to each participant and makes every effort to communicate clearly.
I would eagerly suggest Alain’s online workshops to anyone wanting to learn how to use the pastel medium.
