THIS IS
COLORED PENCIL
Colored Pencil Painting, "Everlasting"
Congratulations to the award winners of the 2024
Colored Pencil Painting show.
OUR WORK
Our chapter has some of the finest colored pencil artists in the state of California, if not the entire country. Every person in CPSA Chapter 214 is committed to the advancement of the use of colored pencil as a fine art medium. Artwork completed by our members attest to that spirit of dedication, which is clearly on display in our gallery of works.
MEETINGS
We meet five times per year, in February, April, June, October and December usually on the first Saturday of those months, between 10 AM and Noon. You can check the calendar on the Meetings page of the site for the exact location, dates and times.
The meetings are a place to meet others who share your interests and learn from those who have vast experience. At the conclusion of the meetings we routinely offer a raffle where members have a chance to leave the meeting with new art supplies.
