With Linda Hampson
Coloured pencil is a marvellously versatile medium. We will work with Faber Castell Polychromos pencils. You will learn how to layer and blend and various other ‘tricks’ and techniques. Beginners and improvers are welcome. It is genuinely an easy medium to master and so I invite you to join me for a series of workshops either ‘ONLINE’ or ‘IN PERSON’ or mix and match so you can enjoy a tutorial every month of the year!
5% of our ‘Devon Wildlife Series’ online course fees will go to Devon Wildlife Trust to helping their work to enhance and conserve our precious landscape & environment.
