The Gilded Brush

Take a journey to explore the unlimited possibilities of creating with PanPastels.

I'm excited to bring you along on another creative journey into the artwork of Gustav Klimt! I have long been a lover of the Art Nouveau movement and so it is such a joy to finally pay homage to one of this period's masters!

The decadent, layered and symbolic work of Klimt has fascinated and enchanted art lovers for decades and now we get to create our own Klimt inspired works too!

I will guide you through a brief history of the artist, the period and and influences and then on to wonderful mixed media projects for all levels!
