Colored pencil is a medium everyone has tried, but not everyone is aware of its amazing possibilities. The good news is that you can make the best of it by doing very simple exercises!

What am I going to learn in this class?

In this class we are going to learn how to layer and blend colored pencils. This is a fundamental topic every artist should master if they want to be successful with this medium. It’s a ‘must-know’ technique! We are going to cover topics like:

Layering and blending technique;
How to render texture;
How to choose the right colors from a reference photo;
The difference between professional x cheap art tools.

Do I need to use the same pencils the teacher uses?

No! The best tools are the tools you have. I will list all the pencils I use, but the idea is to have it as a reference, not a cookbook you must follow. As you finish this class, you must be able to choose the colors on your own, as every new drawing will need different colors.

Do I need expensive materials to take this class?

No! I will prove you can make really nice drawings with cheap colored pencils, covering the pros and cons on purchasing cheap pencil sets.

If you want to start your journey with this medium or want to review the fundamentals of colored pencil drawing, this class is for you!
