Luminist art is reminiscent of an artist brushing tiny diamonds across the canvas to capture radiant light. |

Award winning artist, Amanda Coulter, has been working with colored pencils for 13 years. She grew up in the family art gallery/ teaching studio and acquired experience in learning to teach art. She has developed and perfected her own easy colored pencil techniques through 13 years of experience, and is now teaching the Coulter Colored Pencil Art Program nationally. Amanda is an internationally published author. Her most recent project published in the Autumn issue of The Decorative Painter magazine.
Hallmarks of Amanda Coulter's colored pencil art style are:
Amanda's mastery of photography provides an excellent foundation for her new glassware designs. Specializing in luminous art works, Amanda continually searches for new and different subjects to photograph that inspire new colored pencil designs.
One sunny afternoon, she brought out an old canning jar and laid a blue daisy next to it. The sunlight streaming in from a nearby window caught the jar and daisy to enhance the composition. After photographing it, Amanda used her Prismacolor pencils to begin an artwork on dream surface paper. When the sketching was finished, she added color and sunlight to create this lovely colored pencil project.
Last year, Amanda had the opportunity to photograph this lovely pintail duck and has created this project to teach to her colored pencil students. Although the feathers appear to be very detailed, Amanda says they are very easy to create with her colored pencil techniques. You'll probably never see Amanda without her trusty camera tucked in her pocket. She's always ready to capture that magical moment when something is caught in glistening sunlight. That photograph serves as her source material for a new colored pencil art work.
The best gift Amanda ever received for her birthday was a wonderful digital camera. Now, she photographs whatever catches her attention and has a growing file of many subjects, from flowers, bugs and butterflies to glassware or ordinary subjects caught in gleaming sunlight to inspire her imagination. This one is of her beloved kitty, Phebe, whom she rescued several years ago.
Amanda warmly invites you to join her art workshops to learn her fascinating colored pencil techniques that bring ordinary subjects to life through light and color. |
