The residents were interest to here about me and painting with pastel.
After I had told about myself and the pastelpaintings, I gave a short demonstration in painting with pastel.
In the meanwhile Wilma held the microphone for me, so everyone could here my explanation while I was painting.
After this I went along the tables with "Tulip 2" and answered the questions.
Everyone got the opertunity to feel the different types of paper, from smooth to rough.
Touching and feeling the pastels was a nice experience and made them laugh about the "dirty" coloured fingers which they got from it.
They were especially surprised that you could paint with such a dry material without using a liquid.
You can visite my exhibition "Ode to" every day until 1 March 2012. The admission is free.
