1. Class Description:
In this class, artist and illustrator Lindsey Bailey will teach you to render a life-like self portrait using colored pencils. With endless color possibilities, colored pencils are an amazing medium for achieving photo realism and depth. Less messy than traditional painting, you will come to love the ease of use, flexibility, and control colored pencils have to offer!
You will learn to:
- Pick your paper. Ditch boring white paper, and go wild with beautiful, toned papers!
- Use the grid method to transfer an outline to your paper. This will serve as your guide as you color.
- Use the colored pencils in layers for optimal color, value, and depth.
Along the way, you will also learn some of my favorite tips and tricks including the use of markers for increasing time efficiency. This class is perfect for students of all skill levels. Get ready to put your best face forward in this selfie challenge!
