Do you want to draw? Do you want to learn more about color?

Here is an opportunity to do both!

In this exploration of color in drawing each class will focus on a specific color contrast; for example, students will practice working monochromatically, using warm and cool colors, and finding color harmonies. We’ll work mostly with colored pencil but will discuss other color materials that students may want to bring and use.

By taking color theory into enthusiastic practice, students will build confidence in using color as an integral part of a drawing and have fun in the process.

This adult drawing class is appropriate for beginning artists as well as those who wish to improve their skills

This in-depth class for adult students is appropriate for beginners, people with some drawing lessons, or experienced artists who want additional instruction and practice.

Materials:

Drawing in Color Supply list
Drawing paper
I suggest a pad of drawing paper at least 11” x 14” (8” x 10” is small for our purposes, and 18” x 24” is a bit large for the time we have during class.
Canson XL Mixed Media Pad 11” x 14 is a good option.
Later in the session I may ask you to bring a sheet or two of better drawing paper
Color pencils:
I recommend Prismacolor for the work we will be doing; they have a slight softness that allows for a density of color.
12 color set – or 24 – or !!
Faber Castell also makes good color pencils, but they seem a bit harder than Prismacolor; maybe do some testing before you buy either set and talk to the staff at the art store for recommendations.
Eraser (1 or 2) – a solid one, like Staedtler or Pink Pearl
A hand held pencil sharpener – there are endless choices!
