CAPTURING NATURAL FORMS with COLOR PENCIL

In recent years, colored pencils have become increasingly popular as an art medium. Easy to use, simple to transport, they lend themselves to brilliant images of flowers, seashells, butterflies and even more modestly hued subjects. To assure success the workshop offers a clear step-by-step approach, a drawing exercise, group critiques, and individual attention. Participants should bring a colorful subject they wish to draw. A materials list is given upon registration. For beginning and advanced students.
