Pastel Art Class

Weekly classes Weekly classes are a great way to improve your skills If you are lucky enough to live in this gorgeous part of the Suffolk coast, you are very welcome to attend my weekly pastel classes. I run two classes every Monday: — Hollesley Village Hall 1.30 – 4.30pm — Quay Church, Woodbridge 6.30 – 9pm There are always materials provided for you to borrow or purchase and there is no need to book a series of lessons as the classes operate on a 'pay-as-you-go' basis. Beginners are very welcome at either of the classes because I give structured tuition and demonstrations during the lesson, as well as individual support throughout. Sometimes we vote to decide what we'd like to pastel next We cover lots of different subjects such as wildlife, people portraits, landscapes, seascapes and florals. I am always keen to listen to what the class would like to pastel and sometimes we vote on a range of subjects to decide what we'd like to pastel next! For just £20 per class, you can join in with us; we are a fun, friendly and welcoming group of pastellers! [Contact me for more details about weekly classes.](https://tsealsart.com/contact/)
