Draw a Bat in Coloured Pencil (Recorded from a live workshop)

Bat in coloured pencil

2-Hour Animal Drawing Workshop

Join Tutor Bethany Y Milam to learn how to draw a bat using coloured pencil techniques. There will be a quick look at bat anatomy, followed by a step-by-step drawing demonstration covering coloured pencil techniques, including shading, indenting, blending, feathering, scumbling, and layering colours, along with numerous drawing tips throughout. This workshop is the perfect way to practice your drawing skills while learning a little about these fascinating animals ahead of International Bat Night.
