We will cover the basics of using different types of coloured pencils including:

• And many more!

You will learn simple techniques, tips & tricks, and be provided with structured worksheets to download and practice on (see class project description for download link).

In this first class of the series, we will be looking at a popular wax-based brand of coloured pencils called Prismacolor Premier. You will learn:
