Description: Create a vibrant, expressive owl portrait on fabric using Inktense watercolor pencils and Posca paint markers—no experience required. In this colorful and inspiring workshop, textile artist Alessandra Völker will guide students step-by-step through techniques for building rich color, dramatic contrast, and beautiful feather textures.
Students will begin by using Inktense pencils to create soft, blended layers that establish depth and tonal value. Posca markers are then used to add crisp details, luminous highlights, and bold outlines that bring the owl’s expressive eyes and intricate feathers to life.
Through demonstrations and hands-on practice, participants will explore how combining Inktense and Posca creates powerful visual effects and striking dimensional artwork on fabric. The class is relaxed, supportive, and perfect for beginners as well as anyone interested in developing vibrant textile illustrations.
In this class you will learn how to:
