3-day Pastel Workshop “Break Free from Reference Photos”

Artist: Karen Margulis, PSA-MP IAPS-EP

“We can all benefit from ideas to help us create more expressive paintings. I am always striving to interpret my subject by including my own personal touch rather than copying the reference and painting exactly what I see.
In this workshop I will share my tips and techniques for the effective use of photos to inspire paintings.
I’ll give you the tools you need to move away from copying the reference and to help you create stronger paintings.
I will do multiple demos and share lessons and challenges as well as offer plenty of help at your easel!”
-Karen Margulis
