Beginner Color Pencil – Black Paper with Phil Schorn

About this event

Discover the Art of Colored Pencil Drawing Whether you’re a complete beginner or simply curious to explore a new artistic medium, this engaging course is designed to introduce you to the beauty and versatility of colored pencils. In fact, far beyond what you may remember from childhood or coloring books, colored pencil is a powerful fine art tool. It can produce stunning detail, rich color, and expressive depth. In this class, you will first learn the foundational skills needed to begin your journey with colored pencils. Next, we will cover essential topics such as the different types of pencils and paper available. From there, you will discover how to apply color effectively and then practice techniques such as layering and blending in order to create depth and vibrancy in your drawings. Each session will not only introduce new techniques but also provide hands-on projects. As a result, your confidence and skill will steadily grow. By the end of the course, you will have completed 2–3 finished renderings, each one designed to help you apply what you’ve learned in a creative and supportive environment. Experienced Artists Welcome If you already have experience working with colored pencils, you are welcome to join as well. Instead of following the beginner projects, you may choose to focus on your own rendering. Meanwhile, I will be available to provide individualized guidance and support so that you can take your work to the next level. Ultimately, this course offers an opportunity to experience how colored pencils can become a truly expressive and rewarding fine art medium. Therefore, all levels are welcome!
