Dogs can be a tricky subject to draw, particularly if you're still developing your coloured pencil skills. Often the colours can look right but the texture is lacking, or looks coarse and wirey when it was supposed to be soft. Whether you're drawing your own dog or someone's beloved pet, you want the finished piece to have some 'wow' factor!

By using some basic pencil techniques and following my 3 step fur drawing process, you can draw beautiful dogs with ease.

In this class, I will show you:

The basic materials every color pencil artist needs
The fundamental pencil techniques used for drawing fur
Easy to follow steps for creating fur
How to draw a dog, from selecting the reference phot and the initial sketch to the finished drawing

My class is designed to be as simple as possible, so I don't use a lot of technical words - everything is broken down and explained. Once I've explained the materials you'll need and the techniques we'll use, we can draw a practice fur swatch, we can practice drawing a dog.

The goal by the end of this class, is to show you the process of drawing a dog which you can take to your own drawings and beyond.
