This class will serve as an introduction to colored pencils and watercolor colored pencils using new pastel mat pastel paper. We will use watercolor colored pencil to apply an underpainting of color, then use a water pen brush to go over underpainting to dissolve the wax in the watercolor pencil layer. The drawing is allowed to dry overnight. The drawing is finished with layers of colored pencil applied over the underpainting.

In the second half of the class we will use watercolor colored pencils and watercolor graphite pencils to make prints with a small press.

This class will run from May – June. Advanced registration is required and there is a limited number of slots for the class, so please call the library - or visit the front desk in person - to sign up.
