“When it comes to drawing and sketching, if you are one of those people who says, “I can’t,” this workbook will totally change your mind. With easy-to-follow breakthrough exercises and plenty of encouragement, Jan will have you saying, Yes, I CAN!” in no time. Get ready to fall in love with drawing!”

“This is the book to help explore one’s own creative mind and bring it to paper. It's a must book for artists young and old and even for those who may not think of themselves as artist but love to create. This book would be great for young students as well as it does teach them to use and train their brains in a way no one ever teaches.”

“Expanding Your Artistic Mind is incredibly fun and inspiring – a must-have for creatives of all kinds! Jan Fagan’s innovative exercises had my mind humming in new directions with fresh ideas that I had not considered before. With easy-to-follow instructions and beautiful illustrations, this workbook will make your creative spirit blossom. I can’t wait for the next workbook in the series!”

Some of what you will learn:
- The many different kinds of colored pencils on the market and how to use them
- Really helpful tools for drawing in colored pencil
- Types of drawing papers and surfaces used for colored pencil art
- Various blending tools and solvents used
- Colored pencil tips and tricks
- How to find free, copyright-free sources to draw from (aside from your own photos)
Everyone will get to work on a colored pencil piece using a subject matter of their choosing. After all, if you don’t like drawing something you won’t have fun working on it! Don’t know what to draw? No worries.
I will be sending you a short questionnaire before the class that will help you decide what your best subject matter could be! Based on your answers I will even bring some source photos for you to work from if you don’t have any.
At the end of the class one lucky attendee will also win a gift bag full of fun, colored pencil related items!
