The Fine Art of Painting With Colored Pencil ™

“The Fine Art of Painting With Colored Pencils” is a learning experience in the techniques of layering and blending in order for you to create artwork which more closely resembles paint than what one traditionally thinks of as colored pencil work!  Your New Student Packet contains pre-drawn exercises along with information for students who do not know how to draw.

For artists who can neither work with the solvents and toxins associated with oils or acrylics, nor withstand the dust of pastels, Colored Pencil fulfills their needs .. and then some! Pencils travel easily anywhere, and when done cleanup is as simple as putting down your pencil. In comparison to the investment for other art mediums, colored pencils are relatively inexpensive, adding to their growing popularity.

Your introduction to the world of Artist Grade Colored Pencils as a fine art medium begins with a thorough understanding of:

• Color mixing, blending and burnishing
• Techniques in layering and shading
• Erasing and lifting color
• Characteristics of various pencil and paper brands

Upon mastering these techniques you will advance to creating a beautiful colored pencil painting in the subject of your own choosing, whether you are currently advanced in drawing skills or can only do stick figures!

Learn at your own pace and comfort level in a fun, friendly classroom environment where all students receive individual attention.
