CPS is very excited to present Marcia’s workshop.

Marcia won “Best of Show” in the 2021 Renaissance in Pastel, leading you to put a new spin on your Still Life paintings.

Discover how engaging intuitive color and design techniques can renew your pastel still-life paintings. Marcia will introduce you to multiple approaches unique to her process in achieving freshness, and looseness by demonstrating her multimedia underpainting methods.

Experience the excitement, transforming simple floral arrangements from live and representational sources by following life in lighting, adding expressive mark-making, energetic compositional direction, and luminosity with optical color mixing.

Give yourself permission to play, break the rules, take some risks, see abstract design by using value apps; find strengths in using walnut and India inks, texture exploration with gouache and thinned oil, and finishing strong with pastel! Marcia enjoys quality one on one time helping individual students.
