by Alan Yates |
Alan's
interest in watercolour and pastel painting was revived around 10
years ago, but more recently his interest in pastel painting has
taken off considerably.
Using
bright, defined colours in a modern theme, takes inspiration from
pastel artists Norman Smith and Barry Watkin.
He
feels pastel painting in this way is exiting, enjoyable, very satisfying,
and has been proved popular and sought after.
