Seascapes: How to Pastel Paint

Saturday, June 3rd at 12:30 p.m.

Award-winning artist Gregory Maichack returns to the library to present a workshop on how to pastel paint. This workshop offers both beginner and advanced participants an opportunity to creatively explore pastel painting inspired by the work of Winslow Homer. Participants will receive instruction on expressive pastel strokes, blending, slurring, layering, and creating the wave effect of spray by embedding pigment particles into the painting.

All supplies are provided, and patrons go home with their own work of art.

Please call the library at 508-760-6219 to register, as spaces are limited for this popular event.

This project is supported in part from a grant from the Dennis Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency.
