Description
Discover how simple materials can create stunning results in Spring Blooms, a relaxing and inspiring colored pencil workshop with artist Lisa Albinus. Colored pencils are one of the most approachable and rewarding art mediums—easy to carry, clean, and control—yet capable of remarkable depth, luminosity, and subtlety through the art of layering.
In this workshop, Lisa will guide you step-by-step in building color, light, and texture to capture the soft beauty of a spring floral in pinks, creams, and greens. A prepared line drawing will be provided, allowing you to focus on color and technique without worrying about drawing accuracy. Bring the colored pencils you already own, and learn how much they can do in the right hands.
