Art 1: Colored Pencil Challenge:
Watch the above video first. Then, using the provided resource photo, recreate a paint blob. 
Use the following tips to uplevel your colored pencil skills:

1. Build up color slowly with multiple LIGHT LAYERS.
2. To get shadow colors use dark cool colors (like dark blue, purple, green and also deep red) mixed with the original color (not black!)
3. To make colors more interesting, mix analogous colors with the local color (for example: red orange with red or blue violet with blue.)
4. Look for hard edge color changes and soft edge color changes.
5. Be patient and pay attention!

After creating the paint blob you will be finding a copyright free photo and doing a colored pencil drawing.  REMEMBER to use the skills you've practiced on the paint blob!
