Drawing from the Collections | Colored Pencils: Saturated and Unsaturated Color

Thursday, June 9, 2022 @ 8:00 pm

The Museum is partnering with the Arts Council of Princeton to provide free online drawing classes. Weekly classes are taught by artist-instructor Barbara DiLorenzo over Zoom. Each week’s lesson is inspired by a work in the Museum’s collections. 

This live art-making class is inspired by Kubo Shunman’s 窪俊満 Horned Owl on Flowering Branch. A horned owl sits on a branch covered with embossed, lightly colored magnolias in bloom. In this session, we will consider different techniques to control the saturation of color in our work.
