Interested in learning techniques to make your colored pencil drawings look more realistic?  
In this class we'll practice fundamental skills that you can use for realistic colored pencil drawings.  

**Artist-grade colored pencils (such as Prismacolors) are a necessity for this course. 

Lesson topics:
Lesson 1:  Techniques practice: mark-making, blending, layering, shading, and highlighting 
Lesson 2:  Practical applications of week 1 techniques-- small object drawings
Lesson 3:  Tiger eyes project part 1: shadow layers
Lesson 4:  Tiger eyes project part 2: color & highlights


Each lesson consists of guided drawing videos in an easy to follow format.   Students practice intermediate drawing techniques as they follow along with step-by-step videos, and can receive guidance and feedback for every assignment.  

In lesson 1, we'll draw a fun, simple sketch and fill in the pieces with fundamental colored pencil techniques (mine has jellybean aliens and a flying saucer, but yours can be different!).  

For lesson 2 we'll use those techniques to draw several realistic objects: a cherry, an avocado, and a lock of hair.

In lessons 3 & 4 we'll draw our tiger eyes!  This is the culmination of our practice; we'll emphasize the texture of the fur and creating realistic light and shadow.  

Students who turn in all assignments will receive a certificate of completion.  
I can't wait to see what you create!
