Pastel artist Richard Suckling will demonstrate how he adds sparkle to water and drama to skies in his dramatic paintings! Through his bolder approach to painting with soft pastels, Richard will show you how being more adventurous with mark making, colour choices and compositions can push pastel painting beyond a purely representational approach to the medium.
