Drawn to Colored Pencil

May 24 - July 14, 2013

Bellevue Arts Museum and the Colored Pencil Society of America are pleased to present Drawn to Colored Pencil. In skilled and inspired hands, colored pencils are capable of a remarkably wide range of effects creating rich and complex hues. The participating artists in this display are members of the Seattle District Chapter of the Colored Pencil Society of America.

The Colored Pencil Society of America was founded in 1990 as a nonprofit organization dedicated to artists over 18 years of age working with colored pencil. With about 1,600 members worldwide and over 25 district chapters in the U.S., CPSA provides opportunities for colored pencil artists to network. The Society is run by a governing board consisting of thirteen artists and professionals who volunteer their service to ensure benefits to the membership and the future success of the organization.
