Pastel Innovations” by Dawn Emerson, is an inspirational new book focusing on innovative ways to use the pastel medium. The books subtitle is “60+ Creative Techniques and Exercise for Painting with Pastels” and it really lives up to that description with lots of excellent and easy to follow, exercises and techniques, with very useful supporting information for the various techniques.

Throughout the book PanPastel Colors are featured for various techniques as a way to add color to monotypes, and for various other mixed media techniques.

Here is an extract from the book:


The following video is a short segment from Dawn’s amazing two hour demonstration at the IAPS Convention in Albuquerque recently. The video was made on an iPhone, so please excuse the quality, but it is well worth watching to get an idea of they dynamic ways that Dawn is using the pastel medium, and in this video she is using PanPastel Colors to add color to a monotype.

In addition to the new book, video workshops are also available on DVD and as digital downloads:
