I Blog about an Artist's Life, journaling and sketching, creating Fine Art, using Colored Pencils and also Oil Paints. Working in the studio as well as "En Plein Air", (In the Open Air). Come in and join the fun! My colored pencil work requires 20-25 layers of artist quality pencils. Trying to foster respect for artists who choose a nonstandard media is challenging. I hope this blog will show Colored Pencil deserves the respect from collectors and galleries as a fine art medium.

Spring Colored Pencil Painting Class Finished
These are just a few of the finished or nearly finished "Pick A Pepper" projects from my spring students in the beginner colored pencil classes. All with their own unique style and variations. I can't tell you how proud I am of these adult students. And also how wonderful they all are as artists and people. It's the best part of teaching getting to know other artists, despite what they are constantly teaching me. I am also constantly thinking what else can I show or teach them?
They will currently be working on their 3rd project, their personal one. Each with an image of their choosing. Many will continue until mid June when my open studio session is over. And I can't wait to see how they finish their work or start another.
New classes for beginners Painting In Colored Pencil will start in the fall (Sept. 6 - Oct. 11 1:00 - 4:00 pm) and for my continuing or experienced students a new class in Sanded Surfaces with Colored Pencil, Sept. 6 - Oct. 11th 9:30 - 12:30.
