If this is your first clinic, get step-by-step instruction in how to trace and transfer a favorite photo of a loved one and then blend and layer pastel to create the shadows and light that render their essence. If you are returning, pick up where you left off. A number of these clinics are being offered to give you time to explore the techniques and refine your skills. Sign up for one workshop and see what your progress is, then sign up for another as needed. Two classes will probably be needed to achieve detail.
