A note from Clive,
"My workshops are about getting in touch with your creative side, getting rid of fear and being free to try new techniques and learning other approaches to painting landscape and learning more about pastel.
Pastel offers clean colors, the ability to work quickly and unique properties that can not be accomplished with other mediums.
I teach a Plein air workshop as I believe that you can learn the most from the real and changing world. Yes it is challenging with the uncontrollable elements, but my students have learned new insights and concepts to paint by and to take back to the studio.
If you want to learn more about Plein air, atmospheric conditions, color, values, you will get something of great value from my classes.
Landscape photos to plein air, why there is a difference: I teach a simple approach on 'How to' but will explain the 'whys'; warm colors turn cool, what cool really means, why colors fade and grey out. We take on landscapes, skies, water, trees and rocks.
We will work on how to simplify what we are looking at so our approach to painting will go quickly. I will do several demonstrations over the course of the 3 day workshops in pastels. You will get personal attention, and handouts. All levels of experience are welcome. There is always something new to learn."

Workshop Supply list
Pastels and colors I use:
- Soft pastels, pastel set/landscape set, or half stick sets are a good buy, as you get more colors. I use Sennelier and some Schmincke. But feel free to bring your own brand.
- Make sure you have some super dark colors too. Pure black, burgundy, brown, black green, and dark purple.
- Some important additional colors are by Sennelier are: 211, 334, 057, 045, 455, 284 and Schmincke 063
Drawing:
- Sketch book or sketch paper pencil or fine liners.
- Pastel pencils, dark brown or taupe 2 or 3.
Other Materials:
- Terrycloth work towel or rag - two or three - 12"x12" I use the ones from the auto section from a discount store.
- Small plastic Tupperware with lid approximately 7"x12"x 3" high.
- Half pound of rice flour, should be in the bulk food section of you grocery store. As we work and paint, you will select colors and store them in the container with a handful of rice flower. Some students use rice or grits. This keeps your pastels clean as they roll around.
- Wet hand wipes
- Bottle of water and sunscreen
- Camera, any kind
- Photos or printouts of your favorite landscapes as reference materials to paint from. We will also be painting in plein air as well, so you may paint from your studies.
- Folding chair, or other tri-pod stool. If you need to sit.
Paper:
- I prefer sanded papers by *UArt*. Bring enough paper to practice and enough paper to do 6 to 8 paintings.
- UArt is a great new paper, I dry-mount my paper to white Gator board leaving a 1.5 " white border.
- The dry-mounted paper gives a nice tooth/texture. But you may just use the paper as well. Suggested sizes are 8x10, 9x12, 11x14, you can work larger if you prefer.
If you bring some color papers keep them neutral or natural. You can bring other paper as well to experiment on, but I will be working on UArt.
Support:
- French easel or tri-pod set up.
- Tape or small plastic hand clamps to clamp art boards to easel.
- A drawing board to tape or clamp art paper to easel
- Art board to tape paper too. I use foam core or two pieces glued together.
- Artist tape (kind that won't rip paper)
*This is just a suggestion of things that I use and thought would be helpful. You can bring your own set up as well.*
