Drawing the Colors of Autumn

Drawing the Colors of Autumn

Sat, November 8
Explore autumn color through the beauty of changing leaves. Mix, layer, and learn techniques to create rich fall colors in colored pencil.

Autumn is the perfect time to explore colored pencil techniques with all the beauty of the changing leaf colors, seed pods, gourds and berries. Their unique colors provide the opportunity to practice mixing and layering color. Learn to create rich reds, browns and purples.

Held indoors, we will explore a variety of colored pencil techniques including layering, blending, and burnishing. We will also explore watercolor pencils and pan pastels as underpainting.

All drawing levels are welcome. A supply list will be provided.
