CSW: Create Realistic Drawings in Colour Pencil with Carla Sclanders

In this workshop, Carla will introduce you to the wonderful world of colour pencils. A medium that allows control and precision. You will learn how to build up layers to create depth and a 2-dimensional quality. 

The layering process gives your drawing more vibrancy and colour saturation. Carla will also focus on the importance of values in order to achieve a realistic outcome. At the end of the day, you will have a beautiful artwork to be proud of.
