Introduction to colour pencil drawing at Launceston Library

Launceston Library, supported by Friends of the Library Launceston, invites you to join a cosy Winter Arts Workshop at the Library. This series of free workshops brings professional artists to the Library to share their skills in a range of different mediums. Suitable for adults aged 16+, with any level of experience.

Marilyn Theisel is a Tasmanian artist with a wide-ranging creative background, including textiles, drawing and mixed media. This workshop explores light, shade and form through building up layers of colour. It encourages participants to experiment and try new approaches, using the materials they already have, while picking up techniques that work across different papers, pencils and styles. The aim is to help build skills, confidence and a solid understanding of the basics that underpin more advanced coloured pencil work.

While you’re at the Library, why not join the Warm Winter Read! Pull up a chair, grab a hot drink and get reading. Warm Winter Read is a feel-good winter challenge for Tasmanians aged 16 and over. Join our statewide winter reading challenge and make it easy (and fun) to read a little more – or jump back into reading – across June, July and August. Warm Winter Read - Libraries Tasmania
