Instructor: Joanna Hill

Description and Expectations: In this workshop, we will take two days (2 hours each session) to learn the techniques and in-depth process of drawing with colored pencils with a focus on realism. You will learn how to layer the pencils and blend them using various techniques. You will also learn how to troubleshoot your drawing when you get stuck and learn some tips and tricks to improve your skills. We will also go over the many professional materials available to you to take your coloring to the next level. This medium can be very slow (but relaxing), so don’t be discouraged if you don’t finish your project!

Beginning artists to advanced welcome!
