Colored Pencil Realism Workshop- All Skill Levels

Colored Pencil Realism Workshop- Instructor: Ron Spagnola

May 23, 10am-2pm

Join instructor Ron for an immersive four-hour workshop designed to strengthen your colored pencil skills and bring your drawings to life. This class focuses on the essential techniques of transferring an image onto drawing paper, along with an in-depth exploration of color blending and thoughtful color combinations. Participants will work toward completing a full drawing while developing a strong foundation in realism.

Ron will guide you through blending methods and color layering techniques to achieve bright, rich, and vibrant results using colored pencil. Whether you’re refining your approach or exploring realism for the first time, this workshop offers a supportive and engaging environment to grow your skills.

The class is open to participants ages 15 and up and welcomes all skill levels. While prior experience in sketching, shading, and color mixing is helpful, it is not required.

The workshop runs from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM and includes several breaks, giving you time to relax and enjoy coffee or tea at the in-house café, Diver’s Cup.
