Pastel painting for Beginners

Preparing to teach this class next weekend and looking through some past photos of my pastel paintings.
With thanks and apologies to Gerry Boyd. Thanks for being a mentor. Apologies for doing this class after he did such a great demo for our group recently. Just got inspired to do more. Guess I slowed down on pastels and did more watercolor during our years of RV living.
Will have to post photos from laptop.
Here are a couple of photos.
