BOLD BOTANICALS
WITH OIL PASTEL & COLORED PENCIL

Create bright, dramatic compositions with a focus on blooms and other plant life with artist Dana DuMont. By layering and blending both oil pastel and colored pencil on black paper, we’ll be developing unique images that pop with color, light and detail. Be sure to bring along some favorite flower photos and draw inspiration from seasonal hues as you stroll through the Garden before class meets.
