Homeschooling Resource: Craftsy

I’m back with a Homeschooling Resource: Craftsy that I would like to share with you. I’ve been checking the tutorials Craftsy offer to help us with extracurricular classes for Charlie.

Since I was, I thought you might want to check out Craftsy as well because they’re having a Winter Sale. Which is the perfect time to add new items to your classroom? Just as it is mine and Charlies.

For Charlie and I, I found Pet Portraits in Colored Pencil with              Gemma Gylling. Draw your most heartwarming pieces of art with new colored pencil skills. Capture the beautiful fur, sparkling eyes and unforgettable faces of beloved pets.

Learn to draw colored pencil pet portraits with lessons from award-winning artist and instructor Gemma Gylling. Set yourself up for success as you discover the best surfaces for creating animals, and how to create an out-of-focus background for a portrait that pops off the page.

As Gemma walks you through creating both a cat and a dog portrait, she’ll teach you how to draw true-to-life eyes with layers of color, realistic gloss, and dynamic depth.

Then, learn to mix, blend and shift colors beautifully as you pull all the details of your pet’s face and ears with extraordinary accuracy. Along the way, you’ll get plenty of guidance for drawing convincing textures, capturing color patterns in fur, simplifying complex areas of your reference photo and more.
