The Featured Artist for This Month
February 2021 features California artist Denise Howard. A versatile creator, she’s worked in a number of mediums, but has chosen colored pencil as her primary medium. She pursues her art with energy and dedication while also continuing a full-time career as a software engineer.
February Tutorial
Denise draws many subjects, but nature and animals are among her favorites. She draws a collection of autumn leaves graced with raindrops for this month’s tutorial, and you’ll learn how she creates a wide range of colors and values using similar colors. You’ll also get a look at many of her drawing methods, as well her thoughts on a new paper recently introduced by Royal Talens, Royal Talens Toned Colour Paper.
