Soft Pastel Challenges
The 5 Day Pastel Challenges are completely free to take part. Just sign in with your existing account or if you’re new to the Pastel Academy, create a free account.
Each challenge is hosted by one of the Unison Colour Associate Artists who, over the course of 5 daily 10 minute videos, will challenge you to paint a particular piece, supported within a dedicated community group and a live Q&A session on each evening of the challenge.
- Each morning there will be a new pre-recorded video ready for you to watch, covering the day’s steps.
- The videos are around 10 minutes long and you can fit your painting around work or other daily routines. The only element that is fixed is the Live Q&As.
- You can share your progress in the dedicated community group for feedback from the artist and other participants.
- There will be people taking part from all over the world so don’t worry about timings. It’s a very relaxed approach with no time restrictions.
Past challenges will remain available, so feel free to give them a try – they still work!
