Buy Colored Pencil - an Overview 1-13-10

Colored pencils are an excellent material for botanical (and other) art because they are neat, easy to control, useful for fine detail and portable. Beginning students will learn about the variety of pencils available and basic techniques. A series of color charts and a simple botanical subject will be completed. More experienced students will build on these skills and learn new techniques to convey plant texture, color variation and fine detail. Several botanical subjects, including flowers, leaves, stems or succulents, will be drawn from actual plants. Instructed by Elliot Everson. Limit 15.
