À propos de ce cours
If you've ever found yourself struggling to create realistic looking drawings with colored pencils, or maybe you're completely new to the media and have no idea where to start, this introduction is here to steer you in the right direction.
I want this class to serve as an overall introduction to colored pencils - breaking down the barriers commonly encountered when first starting out and setting you up for success with a process you can use again and again.
By understanding the materials used and the basic techniques for color pencil art, I believe anyone can approach this exciting and flexible media and create amazing pieces they can be proud of.
In this class, I will show you:
- The basic materials every colored pencil artist needs
- The fundamental techniques I use in every drawing
- An easy to follow process from beginning to end
- How to create accurate sketches and transform them into finished drawings
My class is designed with the beginner in mind, so technical terms are broken down and explained. Once we've practiced the techniques, we'll apply to them to an actual realistic drawing as the class project with intricate and detailed sushi. But remember: The skills learned in this class can be carried forward to just about any colored pencil drawing!

Hello, I'm Gemma.
I'm a graphite and colour pencil artist living in South-East UK. I've always been passionate about art and teaching; I believe drawing is a skill that can be taught rather than a talent that some possess and some do not. My teaching style aims to give you everything you need to draw what you see and create realistic artwork.

I have picked this sushi as the class project for a couple of reasons. Firstly, it's a really fun subject and is so vibrant! Secondly, it has a really great mix of details as well as solid blocks of colour. This will be great practice for both areas.
Feel free to experiment with picking your own colors, I always say if you can see it then you should draw it! If you would like to use exactly the same materials as I have, I've included a materials list below and color swatches attached as project resources.
Materials
- 240gsm Bristol Board Paper (Smooth)
- Polychromos Colored Pencils 60 Set
- Swordfish Ikon Pencil Sharpener
- Graphite Pencil
- Ruler
- Eraser
- Sakura White Gelly-Roll Pen (Optional)
