Want to create unique art for the holidays? Join Samantha Su as we will be working towards creating a vivid pastel piece of a pumpkin to celebrate a delightful Thanksgiving! Samantha will go over the basics of blending, mixing, and layering in creating an introductory soft-pastel piece. Learn the elements and principles of value, color theory, and shape that make a composition with pastels as your medium. The lesson will be Thanksgiving-themed. No previous experience is required.

Recommended materials: Soft-pastel chalk, watercolor/sketchbook paper, paper towels, an open space.
