Drawing I Colored Pencil

Students in our Drawing I class recently wrapped up a unit focused on colored pencil techniques. As part of their exploration, they created detailed colored pencil drawings of apples on black paper, candy with foil wrappers on toned paper, and irises on illustration board. This project emphasized the art of layering, with students carefully building up multiple layers of colored pencil to achieve smooth blends and realistic tones inspired by resource photographs. The class’s hard work and attention to detail are evident in the examples below!
