Tropical Contrast: Frangipani in Charcoal & Pastel

Flora and Fauna of the Botanic Gardens Workshops
With Glenis Lawler and Sue Schreiber

Capture the delicate, waxy beauty of the iconic Frangipani in this unique mixed-media workshop. In this class, we explore the striking balance between light and shadow. You will learn to use deep charcoal to create moody, textured foliage, providing a dramatic backdrop for the star of the show: the Frangipani bloom.

Using soft chalk pastels on vibrant colored paper, you’ll learn how to blend seamless gradients of sunset yellows, soft pinks, and crisp whites. This play between the raw, matte finish of charcoal and the luminous glow of pastel creates a stunning, modern botanical piece.
