DVD - The Art of COLORED PENCIL The Light Touch with Janie Gildow CPSA
COLORED PENCIL - Intermediate

Janie Gildow CPSA, is your guide to the rich and elegant art of colored pencil.  She covers a few basics, then jumps into a project from design to completion.  Janie shows her photo selection process, cropping to improve composition, use of a modified grisaille approach to establish values and then demonstrates how she layers color, often using four or more colors in an area for richness.  Janie uses the 'light touch' for flexibility and elegance.  You will learn pointers to improve your own technique as she shares her thoughts about the process.  Your view is so close you will see when Janie's pencil point starts to dull!  This workshop packs days of information into 90 minutes.

Janie uses a variety of pencils and recommends Prismacolor pencils as a good basic selection.  She also uses an electric eraser, electric pencil sharpener, hake brush, erasing shield, 6H and 8H graphite pencils and Fabriano-Aristico extra white paper.

Janie Gildow, CPSA is a signature member of the Colored Pencil Society of America, popular teacher and co-author of Colored Pencil Solution Book and author of Colored Pencil Explorations, and video workshop The Colored Pencil:  Getting Started Right.
