Summer Art: Pen to Paint Sunflower
Create your our own colorful sunflowers using pencil, pen and paint
Available spots
Class Description
Ages 12-17 $12, $10.80 for ACWL Members Students will create their our own colorful sunflower beginning with a quick pencil sketch, then shading and detail with a ballpoint pen, and finally finishing your piece with acrylic paint on top of the pen. By the time you are finished, you will have a beautiful drawing of a sunflower and a better understanding of shading with a pen, and how acrylics can be applied on top to allow the details of the pen to come through underneath. While shading and adding color, students will learn to be conscious of how light would interact with the flower petals and its stem and apply those visuals for a more realistic looking piece. Minimum: 4 Maximum: 12 About the Instructor: Kanda Parrott is a fairly new artist to the White Lake area. Her art is currently at the Arts Council of White Lake, exhibited in downtown Muskegon, and retailed internationally. Kanda works in ballpoint pen, pencils, and paints and her work predominately features the beauty of nature juxtaposed with the human condition and is often full of color and playful... with a touch of the creeps.
