This five day intensive color pencil workshop goes beyond the pencil and onto the page. The class is for the student who has already played with color pencils or thought about playing with color pencils and wants to expand their experience and knowledge. Each day will feature a different lesson, from paper to techniques with watercolor and solvents, as well as layering and masking. This class will culminate with a comprehensive colored pencil drawing.
Lisa Dinhofer—painter, draftswoman, and printmaker—earned her BA with honors from Brandeis University and an MFA from the University of Pennsylvania. Her work has been shown extensively, both nationally and internationally. Her most recent solo shows were at the Century Association (NYC, 2015) and Denise Bibro Fine Art (NYC, 2012). Her paintings, drawings, and prints are widely collected and publicly represented at the Brooklyn Museum of Art, City College (CUNY), IBM, and other venues. In 2003, she completed a 90-foot glass mosaic mural, Losing My Marbles, which was commissioned by the MTA Arts for Transit program and is located at the Times Square subway station. Dinhofer’s comprehensive study of colored pencils, Mastering Colored Pencils, was published by Monacelli Press in 2017 and is now available for purchase.
