Using colored pencils is not just about simply coloring a drawing in ; it’s about learning the many different ways to use them to enhance your work. These are some tips that can help you along-remember to start light and build up to darker shades; blend your colors for great effects. One can work in a sketchy style or one can pursue a more final, burnished look . There are many more approaches to learn about and demos will be given by the instructor. This class has a required materials list.
