CJ Worlein specializes in portraits created in the fine art medium of colored pencil, and strives to capture not only the likeness of her subjects, but their personality and spirit as well.
A multiple award-winning artist, CJ also works on a commission basis and is happy to discuss the costs and options of engaging her services.
Works created with colored pencil are found in galleries, museums, and international exhibitions. Colored pencil as a pigment is translucent, so instead of a single color, you see as many as 10 layers of color, creating rich, complex hues.
CJ is a signature member of the Colored Pencil Society of America (CPSA), an international organization of dedicated, talented artists who love and promote the versatility and beauty of this fine art medium.
From 2013 to 2024 she was the creative/image director on the CPSA volunteer governing board and served as its membership director from 2011 to 2013. From 2008 to 2011, she was president of CPSA Portland District Chapter 201, which primarily serves Oregon and Southwest Washington artists.
