Want great, time-saving backgrounds?

Many artists like to create the background first, to get it over and done before going on with the more exciting bits. But a large background area can often be tedious and boring to create. Fear not, Pearl has a great solution... in fact, she has lots of them! Come explore the many ways – and all the different non-colored pencil media you can use – to speed up your backgrounds, all ready for the fun colored pencil detail on the top.

Many artists like to create the background first, to get it over and done before going on with the more exciting bits. But a large background area can often be tedious and boring to create. Fear not, Pearl has a great solution... in fact, she has lots of them! Come explore the many ways – and all the different non-colored pencil media you can use – to speed up your backgrounds, all ready for the fun colored pencil detail on the top.  

There is so much you can do with backgrounds and so many materials you can use, so this class will be a demonstration only.  Pearl will be using watercolor paper, Pastelmat, colored pencils, pastels, Pan pastels, marker pens, watercolor pens, masking fluid, paint brushes, OMS and blender markers and more. Just watch, choose a method, and try it yourself later!

Just bring a notebook and a pencil for notes, and be prepared to come away with LOTS of ideas!

You'll learn:
• What underpaintings are and how to create them
• When you might (and might not) want an underpainting
• What surfaces are good for underpaintings with colored pencil

About Pearl: Born in South Africa with a pencil in her hand, Pearl has a vibrant and friendly personality with a wicked sense of humor, a fun and relaxed approach to teaching, makes any student feel at home, and has an incredible way of bringing out the best in her pupils with her encouraging comments.

    Too much time spent looking for and gathering supplies. Would appreciate names of supplies in print.

    Hi Sandralee,

    Thank you so much for taking the time to submit your review. We genuinely appreciate the feedback, and your patience and understanding with the few slight delays in class. I sent the email with the video link and Pearl's contact information yesterday. Feel free to reach out to Pearl anytime for that list of supplies, or with any questions. If you didn't get that email, please contact me directly at: [email protected].

    Thank you, again! We appreciate you!

    Kindest Regards,

    This is an extremely basic class that will teach you how to apply various media in small spheres (as usual, sigh), but you won't learn anything about underpaintings.

    Hi Françoise,
    Thank you for taking the time to share your review – we genuinely value your feedback. We're so sorry you didn't gain insights into underpaintings with the various techniques demonstrated. In this class, Pearl utilized various materials including watercolor paper, Pastelmat, colored pencils, pastels, Pan pastels, marker pens, watercolor pens, masking fluid, paint brushes, OMS, and blender markers, etc., to showcase multiple techniques for creating backgrounds more efficiently than with colored pencils alone. It seems you may already possess these skills. We recognize that not every class suits everyone, and if you have any questions about our products, please feel free to reach out. We would love to help guide you in choosing products that truly meet your needs.

    Kindest Regards,
