Brenda Mattson PSA    June 10 – 15, 2007 (Four Teaching Days)
Paint What You Love in Pastel or Oil

Join Brenda in this exciting workshop where you will work to captivate light and pull the extraordinary out of the ordinary through the use of light and color. Brenda truly loves realism and you will work on new techniques to improve composition, light, shadows, color, contrast and depth. Bring your favorite photos, and Brenda will show you how to convert those photos into beautiful works of art. You have the option of working in either oils or pastels. She will be working in both to share her secrets for capturing a likeness with hands on demonstrations and individual instruction. Learn to express yourself with detail and color. This workshop is jam packed with instruction and fun to help you improve your painting style.

Brenda enjoys a variety of subject matters including portraits, animals, floral and landscapes from all over the world. She especially enjoys capturing a candid moment, finding it allows her to alternate and take a break from a painting should the need arise. Teaching allows Brenda to meet people and travel, two things she enjoys as much as painting.

Brenda is a signature member of the Pastel Society of America. She is Exhibition Chairperson for the International Association of Pastel Societies. She has worked in oil and pastels for over 20 years and has taught workshops nationally and internationally. She has the ability to work in all different subject matter. Her work has been featured in many artists' publications. Come spend five days of painting what you love and enjoy a relaxing, fun time.
