Course outline:

Module 1

Prepreparation

In this first week, I'm going to help you with your choice of pencils, papers, and tools. Then we explore how to develop an artistic mindset and stay motivated, 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

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. Focus is 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.

Included resources: Workbooks, templates, downloads, reference images, 5 live Zoom calls with me, a secret Members Only Facebook group, and special bonuses!

Testimonials

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”.Helen Pedersen

C2C- January 2025

Concept to Creation was a course that had been on my radar for several years. I kept making excuses as to why I wasn't ready for such a course. Boy, was I ever wrong!!
I have taken other colored pencil instruction from other artists and I can honestly say that none of them taught the information that Kate has in this course. Most instructors give you a line art with a bunch of pencils and you just follow along. I grew very tired of this process and felt I wasn't learning anything. So, this January I signed up, and had the most wonderful learning experience on how to
develop skills needed as an artist to set oneself up for a successful drawing. I knew how to use my colored pencils to draw an animal, I just didn't know the process on how to get a good composition on to the paper. I highly recommend this course, it will not disappoint!!

~Virginia 🌈x

I had signed up to two of Kate Jenvey's stand alone courses last year (not yet finished) and found I learned more in the four weeks of the Concept to Creation than all my time in school and college and from following other tutors.
