Course outline:
​
MODULE 1 - Planning and Preparation
In this first week, I'm going to help you with your choice of pencils, papers, and tools. How to develop an artistic mindset, how to use the correct reference photos, select your perfect subject, sketch out ideas, and discuss anatomy.

​
MODULE 2 - Developing Colour Skills
In module 2 I will help you feel confident about colour and how to develop your tonal skills by looking closely at light and shade, directional and ambient light sources, this leads to deeper colour knowledge, a fun exercise by mixing with 3 primary colours, and looking closely at composition.

MODULE 3 - Developing Pencil Strokes
In Module 3 the work begins with developing the drawing into a 3-dimensional subject. I will guide you to start working up your line drawing with directional strokes using the correct pressure and type of stroke using your tonal and colour knowledge gained in Module 2. I will teach you how important edges are in creating a realistic subject and focusing on specific details like eyes, noses, ears, fur, and whiskers.

MODULE 4. - Finishing and Refinement
In this final module, the drawing will be finished and refined, aiming to create life and soul into your subject. This includes rechecking and refining values, colour and anatomy by self-critiquing your work using certain tools and seeking advice from supportive and knowledgeable peers. Presentation and ongoing projects will also be discussed.

Testamonials
With much appreciation, I share a review from a past student:
​
“I joined Kate Jenvey’s Concept to Creation course in July 2022. I had never used coloured pencils before. Kate’s 28-day course taught me so much, not only about coloured pencils but about all other aspects of art in general.
I learned so much about pencils, papers, researching your subjects, sketching as well as finishing my first coloured pencil piece of art. I entered my first Coloured Pencil Art Competition with “Gerald”. I had my piece Commended, as well as published in their magazine.
Before I joined Kate in 2022, my mojo with my art was hitting quite a low period. But now I have my enthusiasm returning with gusto. Kate shares so much information with all of her members, as well as being a very supportive teacher.
Her private Facebook group has other like-minded artists who support each other as well. Joining Kate was THE BEST decision I have made in my art journey. It’s so good to be excited about my art again”.
