ISBN Ultimate Guide to Colored Pencil: Over 35 Step-by-Step Demonstrations for Both Traditional and Water

Coloured pencils are an often overlooked medium that is in fact well-supplied with artist's quality materials and can achieve subtle and beautiful effects with a minimum of equipment.Gary covers the use of reference photographs, an essential tool due to the relatively long time pencil drawing takes to complete. This is followed by a technical section that explains the various methods of application, how to use and blend colours and create layers as well as underpainting and techniques with water-soluble pencils.The final section of the book is a series of demonstrations that's handily divided by technique - layering, burnishing, underpainting and so on - that cover subjects from still life and flowers to landscapes, water and animals.
