Nola Clark is best known to our readers as a devoted pastel artist with previous demonstrations having been published in issues 45 and 58 of Artist’s Palette. After 30 years at her Heathmont home in Melbourne’s eastern suburbs she has taken her pastel box, pets and husband Alan to the peaceful regional town of Trafalgar in Victoria’s West Gippsland.
The tree change has motivated her to rearrange her priorities in front of the easel. A dramatic reduction in teaching, demonstrating and workshops along with other activities has widened her scope to enjoy and participate more often with other mediums.
Pastel still remains top of the list but scratch boarding has moved rapidly into second place. Recently she has revisited her love of drawing and enjoys the idea of beginning and completing a work with charcoal as the vehicle. In this issue of Artist’s Palette she presents two charcoal demonstrations and we also present a selection of other works depicting her versatility in all mediums and diverse subjects.
