About this Event
Welcome to the Color Pencil Picture Workshop — where colors come to life!
In this vibrant 2-hour session, you’ll journey step-by-step through the process of creating a polished colored pencil artwork, even if you’re a complete beginner.
We’ll kick off by exploring the magic of colored pencils with a quick demo on essential techniques: smooth blending, rich layering, bold outlining, and delicate shading. You’ll get to try these techniques right away on a fun “color sampler” sheet to build confidence.
Next, we’ll guide you in selecting a simple but striking reference image from a curated collection — or you can bring your own! From there, we’ll break down your chosen image into easy, approachable sketch shapes so you can transfer it to paper with ease.
With your sketch ready, the real fun begins! You’ll learn how to plan color schemes, block in base layers, and gradually build depth, detail, and vibrancy with expert tips and tricks throughout the process.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a beautiful, frame-worthy colored pencil picture to take home — along with a set of new skills and a creative spark that lasts long after class ends.
All materials are included — just bring your curiosity and your favorite colors!
