Introduction to Colored Pencils for Teens

This four-week class for teens and tweens is designed to offer a platform for jumping into colored pencils.  Instructor Emily McDonald starts with the basics and students will explore general drawing techniques and play with layering on colors, blending, and creating texture.  We will utilize reference images to work from and explore portraiture.  This class is designed to allow students to share ideas, their work, and progress. We supply high-quality Prismacolor pencils and drawing paper but students are welcome to bring a drawing book to work from and build a portfolio.

The class will be held from 4-5:30 pm on Thursdays, beginning November 16 in the Idonea Hersee Classroom at Art Reach, 111 E. Broadway, Mount Pleasant, MI.
