Prismacolor pencils are widely appreciated by professional artists for their high quality pigments and adaptability to a myriad of styles and techniques. In this workshop, participants will learn the Prismacolor techniques of shading, hatching, scumbling, incision drawing and burnishing as well as how to apply the medium to reflect a personal style – from subtle to vibrant, with exacting detail to a broader stroke. Artist Kathryn Klauber will concentrate on landscapes, still lifes and portraits. One class will be held at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, to examine color application by the masters. Participants will learn how to judge paper structure and quality to help create works of lasting durability and will create a final project using a subject of their choosing.
