Expressive Portrait Drawing with Soft Pastels

I once took a soft pastel course in Zürich 4 years ago but didn't do much afterwords. Now I feel I'm back on the right track. Thank you Chris!

Un buen curso, me gustó la manera en cómo el instructor explica las clases, es muy claro y conciso. Este estilo de retratos al pastel es muy expresivo y me gusta bastante.

Tack för en väldigt informativ och bra handledd kurs.
Kan rekommendera denna till dig som vill lära dig mer om mjukpastell.

Full course. Good.

L'insegnante è molto preparato! I contenuti del corso sono chiari e molto interessanti!

J’ai bien aimé le cours et la façon dont il met tout pleins de couleurs dans ses personnages et j’ai aussi beaucoup apprécié les documents explicatifs PDF qui sont joint et que nous pouvons consulter à titre de référence.

Excelente curso, muy recomendable para los que les gusta experimentar con la técnica de pastel.

Thank you.You have opened my mind to draw more loose portraits.It was totally new for me to measure a face drawing a triangle from eyes to nose.

Love this course and recommend it, Pastel medium can be challenging but Chris know this technique so well and with his guidance you will be able to get a good undestanding on how to get good results with Pastels.

This course on domestic is my first. I liked the format and the way to clearly show not only the process itself. In general, the course is wonderful, very practical, with bonuses and hidden meanings. Thanks.

excellent!

Soy una gran admiradora de la obra de Chris Gambrell y sentía curiosidad por ver su proceso de trabajo. Además de gran artista, es un gran docente. Muy recomendable!!

Chris shares his techniques very clearly and shows how to achieve great results with pastels. I had never attempted portraits previously, and had only worked with watercolour, so I was pleased to produce a respectable drawing following his guidance. This is an excellent course for a beginner and also for someone who has had some experience with the medium.

J’ai aimé le processus de dessin. Chris explique très bien et j’ai beaucoup appris. Comme pour tous les autres cours, il ne reste qu’à pratiquer.

Até agora o melhor curso a que assisti! Chris toma o seu tempo para explicar com paciência e detalhe cada passo. Muito empático e generoso. Amei!
