Figures in Pastel: Tom Coates |
|
Tom is a master of figurative painting and drawing. In
this, the first in a trilogy of films, he works in pastel and paints a
portrait of a local town crier, dressed in full regalia. He produces a series
of pastels of models, taken from drawings in his sketchbook and he also
paints that most difficult of subjects, a self-portrait. This film gives a
unique insight into the working practices in the studio of a distinguished
artist painting and drawing in pastel. Duration:
