    3. Shade from light to dark
    4. Keep pencils sharp
    5. Hold pencil further away from tip
    6. Get smooth paper
    7. She uses burnishing technique
    8. Build layers slowly low pressure to high

  • @lilyuumi1345
    @lilyuumi1345 Před 5 lety +149

    i use tiny circles to shade and blend instead of lines because lines force you to shade in "blocks" because you can only move your hand so far side to side, and when you need to shade a really big surface you'll still get lines in between each "block" of shading. Tiny circles or "scrumbling" don't do that. You can go on and on growing out from one point into any shape that you need. it does take a bit longer but the results are amazing! especially for portraits because skin isn't exactly perfectly one smooth shade (you'll end up with unrealistic porcelain doll-like faces otherwise) using scrumbling gives it texture while maintaining a smooth even shading. hope this helps :)

      @dannyboygregory-mccormick9157 Před 5 lety +25

      I think a combination of both works best, depending on the drawing. Like you would use the back and forth motion for wrinkles and creases, but circulated motions for smoother areas of the skin or fill in larger shapes.👍

    Good video. As someone who has used colored pencils a lot, and has often been frustrated with the results of my experimentation, I appreciate you making these.
    Just one minor point, though: A set of lines at right angles to a previous set is not in the "opposite" direction, it's *** perpendicular *** to the first set. Just FYI. ;)

    I know a lot of portrait artists prefer to burnish. Doesn’t it kill your wrist? I just can’t do it that long before my wrist is worn out and I have to stop.

    • @KirstyPartridgeArt
      @KirstyPartridgeArt  Před 6 lety +26

      Peggy Henderson I don’t get any wrist pain when I burnish. I think this is because my Luminance pencils are so soft and creamy that you don’t need to apply much pressure at all to blend them out. My wrist ache more when I use other brands of coloured pencils that don’t blend as easily.

    I really want to be very good at color pencil i dont know if i should be getting better with sketching. Should i need to master proper sketching first or I could go directly mastering color pencil? is everything follows? like improvement in sketching while trying to learn realistic art with color pencil?

    • @TheEatMeDrinkMe69

      I think if you attempt to learn colored pencil now, you may struggle with adding shadows, but either way you will improve artistically.
