Class Sessions

Introduction to Colored Pencils & Watercolors (24:07)
Meet instructor and award-winning colored pencil artist Janie Gildow and begin by warming up with blender bars. Together, you’ll review the tools you’ll need to get started, how to select the best watercolor materials for your project, and basic methods for creating combined colored pencil and watercolor artworks.

Colored Pencil Meets Watercolor (26:16)
Take the guesswork out of combining colored pencils and watercolors by learning to make and use a color predictor. Then start on your first mini-project: painting and coloring yellow candy-covered chocolates by applying watercolor over your colored pencil layers.

More Approaches to Combining Colored Pencil & Watercolor (22:58)
Janie shares two more techniques: You’ll see how to apply colored pencil on top of watercolor and you’ll learn an integrated method for applying both mediums somewhat simultaneously. Practice these skills in two more mini-projects featuring fruit.

Landscape Project Part 1 (22:02)
Put your skills to work as Janie introduces your big project: a highly textural landscape with vibrant colors, depth and water reflections. You’ll start by adding watercolor washes for all elements, followed by foliage, leaf and grass textures. Next, you’ll learn to create a feeling of space and strong composition in your landscapes.

Landscape Project Part 2 (19:41)
Picking up where you left off in your landscape project, you’ll work on three more steps: developing warmer tones, adding the sky and filling in reflections on the water.

Landscape Project Part 3 (19:36)
You’ll put the finishing touches on your landscape by building colors and tones, refining shapes and finally adding a wash over the water.
