Cold Wax, Charcoal and Pan Pastels and More Workshop | Leibowitz | 10/24

In this workshop we'll be using various methods of moving wax and charcoal to create beautiful abstractions. The abstractions can be landscape based or non-objective compositions.

Use scrapers, shapers, and any other tools you can think of to to make marks, playing back and forth between additive and subtractive methods.

We'll use Pan-Pastels at various points to add or start with color.
