My first class of this semester at MUSEO began this week. This is a photo of the sample I made for the lesson on "pastel fresco" art. This pear was drawn with soft pastels (which then due to moisture, blend like paint!) onto still damp plaster that was spread onto the burlap. The plaster gives you interesting texture and once it was full dry, I was able to bend & crack it further to enhance the plaster element.I have 6 students so far in that class. They are all pretty much beginners, some are very creative, but not formally trained in art, so it's challenging. I really hope to be successful in helping them create pieces they will be proud of, in addition to just having fun in the class.

Tina, that's gorgeous. How big is it? I wish I lived near you so I could take your class. Good luck.
