| My History with Colored Pencil by Amy Lindenberger |
| Colored pencil is a relatively new fine art medium, when compared with oils, watercolors, etc. The Colored Pencil Society of America has increased the popularity of the medium many times over since it first began in 1990. However, I've been working with colored pencil for more than thirty years, and teaching classes on their usage for more than a quarter century! Read more.. |

| Colored Pencil Explorations: The Colors of White Dates: Sat., Jan. 21, 28 (snow date: Feb. 4) Time:10 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Objective: To be able to accurately capture the subtle nuances of color found in nature's range of whites by combining colored pencil and watercolor pencil. Prerequisites: Botanical Drawing I, Colored Pencil I Fee:$ 120 members; $160 non-members Location: Phipps Garden Center in Mellon Park In this course we will examine the variety of whites nature offers to us in her palette. White flowers and berries can be some of the most difficult to portray, due to the very delicate nature of their coloring, which those new to studying the various whites will often perceive as gray. Students will quickly see that using grays to tone their white subjects will only serve to deaden and destroy the inherent subtleties which are the key to their beauty. We will focus on simple color perception and identification techniques and then practice the necessary skills to be able to render these subtleties realistically. To register, call the Garden Center at (412) 441-4442 ext. 3925 or download our registration form |
| Colored Pencil II: Applications Dates: Sat., Apr. 14, 21, 28 Time: 10 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Objective: To use a methodical approach to botanical painting with colored pencils, building on experience gained in Colored Pencil I. Prerequisites: Botanical Drawing I and II, Colored Pencil I Fee: $ 180 members; $220 non-members Location: Phipps Garden Center in Mellon Park Building on the foundation of colored pencil techniques and layering principles begun in Colored Pencil I, this course focuses on more advanced layering and blending techniques to create a variety of surface textures, exercises to continue to improve color perception skills, and more advanced color theory, including understanding hue, value, intensity and temperature.
