Excellent tutorial. My kids learn a lot from your videos. You did not mention the paper grade which would also make a difference. No?
This is so good im getting it set as homework.
"Do not compare your work to anyone else's. The style you develop is uniquely yours and therefore incredible". THANKS FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT & INSPIRATION!!!
It's so true! Thanks so much for watching!
Veritas Veritas I really liked that comment as well!
I'm sure they will be amazing!!! 🐈
I agree with you about that
Absolutely! Enjoy the journey.
My family and friends keep belittling me whenever I start colouring. They thought it's only for kids. But I understand that not everyone understand the joy of colouring and making arts. 😃
I came from a poor family. We can't afford coloured pencils back then when I was at school. I'm glad I can now channel my inner love for arts today. Thanks for producing this video to guide clueless newbies like me. 😃😃 Keep on doing this. 😀
Ja
God bless u - keep working towards your passion - there is never too late to begin anything in life.
I can't afford prisma colours but maped are soo cheap and they work the same !
I'll tell you something.... colouring using colour pencil greatly enhances your brain and improves your life quality.... yes you heard right ... neuroscience rocks....you are lucky to have found this hobby ...
Good for you! Keep going, with your passion. 😊
OKAY couple things
1. You explain things SO well. usually when i watch tutorials the artist does not explain at all what they are doing and leave me more confused than when I started
2. your voice is so soothing this made it so much nicer to listen to
Aww thank you! Both comments are so appreciated! Glad you're enjoying the channel!
Just bought a new sketch pad and a set of colored pencils. First time I'll use them in like . . . 50 years or so. Thank you for youor instruction, I plan on watching more of your videos to enhance my old / new hobby!
This is the ideo that I should have watched before I picked up a pencil to color. How instructive it was and truly entertaining as well! What a great sense of humor you have!
Hello there, thank you so much!
Video
I loved that blooper at the end, so cute. It made me laugh out loud and rewind so I could watch it again.
I am an author/illustrator, and I had originally started my work with colored pencils. I switched to digital because I didn't like how my art looked when I scanned it. But recently, I've started to realize that there was nothing wrong with my work, just with my scanner! I'm definitely switching back to colored pencil! Your video made me remember that I love my own work, and never should have drifted away from my own style! Thank you so much!
CONGRATULATIONS…….YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY STUNNING. THIS IS THE BEST TECHNIQUES VIDEO.
Great video.. one of the few color pencil tutorials where I could actually see effort and commitment by the creators.
This is probably my favorite video because it covers the basics of how to color and add depth and character to your coloring. I have colored all my life, but this month just started to try to blend, layer, and advance my coloring. Your videos have helped me a lot! I am doing the giveaway and did share this on my pinterest page, where I have a few other good friends who love to color too!! Thanks so much for posting these tutorials! I really appreciate them!!
Thanks so much Maria! Glad you're enjoying the videos. Good luck on the giveaway!
You explain things so simply and easy to understand, it puts me at ease and doesn’t make me feel nervous or pressured about starting a new medium 😊 very helpful!
Thank you so much for taking the time out of your day to teach us how to do this! I'm a new owner of a complete set of Derwent Coloursoft pencils and I have never drawn/coloured on a more "professional" level, so I'm having a blast looking at video's and trying things out. Please keep up the good work!
I love the advice you give us. I've been only working with color pencils for a year, and I learned a lot of new things on this video. I am planning to buy new prismacolor pencils pretty soon. Thank you for making this video.
Finally a tutorial I can understand! I haven't colored anything since elementary school but I recently ordered a set of colored pencils and an adult coloring book and have been looking to learn the basics
Best lesson I ever got for pencil coloring, thank you very much!
This lady has some skillz - I saw her use her fingernail while blending out with the colorless blender and said “what!”.
I rewound the video to see what she did. I’ve never seen anybody else coloring on CZcams using their fingernail like that to support their pencil. Great technique!!!!!!!!
Really good tips thank you. I have just got into colouring to help me relax so needed some guidance on blending and layering x
I have been collecting coloring books and pencils....I thought I was just a hoarding! So happy Covid brought me to you and your videos! I got my books out and organized my pencils and am now coloring! A big thank you!, well done! You are delightful and bring so much joy here in California! I am making up a box for my daughter in law and left a bundle for my next door neighbor who loved it! We are relaxing and coloring and watching you channel!
Thanks.. I thought I should stop using colored pencils, but this is just an inspiration.. THANK YOU!
Thank you! What a nice compliment and good luck to you!
I love seeing how your own work has progressed nicely.
Thank you!
Colouring is such a peaceful beautiful thing to do. I love it and do it every day, using my Prismacolors and Polychromos pencils.
Love this video. I'm a happy Pencil Stash Member.
That's so sweet, thank you!
I've just discovered your tutorials and I love them. I was shading and blending my own way lol now I know the right way. You will be my go to instructor. Thanks again
You are too kind, Donna, thank you!!!
I'm new to adult coloring and am loving the videos here on youtube that are teaching me that 'adult coloring' can in fact be a great skill to have. I just started and am so excited about it, I find it very relaxing and enjoyable and it helps with my depression and anxiety. Joined your facebook group, nervous to show my work but I'll enjoy getting tips!!!
Thank you for this beginner level tutorial. Greatly appreciated.
Clear, concise explanations with excellent visual demonstrations. This video has been immensely helpful to me as I am just getting back to drawing after about 50 years (mostly did cartoons at that time) and never used colored pencils before (always either B/W pencil sketches or filled in with marker - which, along with water color I do not like). Although I have stumbled onto each of your main points as I have been drawing, I didn't understand how to properly execute any of the techniques. I simply did things trial and error. Your explanations have put things into perspective. I really enjoy using colored pencils so now knowing the proper how-to will definitely help. Thanks!
You Are Simply Amazing!! Thank you kindly for teaching and showing these quality techniques!💛💯
Thanks for reminding what I has long forgotten
This was so useful. I love art and have been doing it for a years (I am 14) however I have been getting in to polychrome pencils and i needed to learn how to make my work better and how to use them properly.This video helped so much ! Thank You !
Just got my first colored pencils for Christmas. Loved this video for beginners.
Absolutely wonderful video tutorial! I am totally inspired. Thank you so much 😊
I'm just starting. Your tips are great. Gives me confidence to go on.
Wow your work is amazing. Your instructions were so good & so easy to follow. Nice voice to listen to. Thank you.
Thank you for this, it was very useful! I've been using pencils as my main medium in my drawings for years and only just came to the realisation that I have no clue how to blend properly or how to utilise different techniques to get better coverage. This tutorial was very simple and to the point, so I thank you again!
All featured works are awesome 👌
Deserved like!
The other videos I watched didn't explain the basics this detailed or at all. Really Gives me a solid foundation to work with.
Thankyou!
Sometimes I have to look at my artwork to remind myself of how good I really am at coloring but for some reason I continue to look up techniques to make my work better trying to make it better.I layer my colors sometimes and instead of shading from light to dark. I shade from dark to light because it takes entirely to long to go over one spot 5 to 6 times. Everyone's work is different. My coloring is beautiful.
I adored the out take! LOL = thanks for including that!
I absolutely loved your video... thank you so much for all your tips and advice. Newcomers like myself really appreciate all the work you and many others like you, put into your videos and blogs and chats. So... thank you for sharing...you make learning fun!
Nice tips...thanks for sharing.
Good teaching of many techniques. I was watching one where person just said to use circular strokes, but this one points out more things can do.
love the tips, Your drawings are just beautiful.
This helped me in my school projects such as postermaking
Great video! Just found this channel and I must say more people need to watch this specially beginners..such clear instructions and demonstrations! Am really glad I found this channel! Ty
Thankyou sooo much i was looking for a tutorial like this for soo long but all of them were way advanced and hard for someone new like me i am so glad i watched this video.
I love your videos! I'm new to the world of adult coloring, and have become addicted. I find coloring sooo relaxing, and your videos have helped me tremendously in developing my own techniques. Thank you so much!
Thanks soooo much! Really appreciate your kind words and thanks for watching!

Teri Honor Hey Teri! A year later? Oh well! I am also in my rookie year of coloring! Addicting? Oh yeah! Relaxing, calming, and addictive! One of my children calls coloring my new Xanxax!
Adult coloring?
Very useful information. I learned a lot thank you and keep these great tutorials coming.
I should have found this video on how to use colored pencils, really good. Thank you
Great video. I'm just starting out with my art work as therapy for mindfulness and I absolutely love it. I started with colour markers and then glitter gel pens, which I love to use on their own or combine the two. I have just purchased my first set of coloured pencils and have gone for Arteza which I bought from Amazon at a great price. I went for these over the Prismacolour due to the fact that they seem to be selling a lot of fake pencils and have read loads of reviews about the Arteza pencils saying how good they are for a more budget pencil. Can't wait to get them and start colouring!
Thank you, love your work
Awesome tips and techniques, fantastic video.
This was very helpful! Thanks!
Colorless blending pencil -- "5:44." Thanks for this info, PencilStash.
In my years of drawing, I have never used a colorless pencil, &, frankly, I have either been totally unaware of such, or just never paid it that much attention whenever I may have encountered it in the past. Thanks again.
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent tutorial!
I loved this video. It was so helpful. You make everything look so easy.
Thanks Joann!
your voice is heavenly
After 3 years you got your first like on this comment
Thank you SO MUCH for this video!! It's helpful.

This is soo detailed thank you soo much💖
Learned so much from this video. Thank you
I have just seen the video! THANK YOU, very good info that I will practice
Thank you. Simple but great lesson. You’re a great teacher with a nice voice ❤️
Rachel, I've been coloring right at a year now and find myself still learning. Your videos have been a great learning tool and seeing other great works of art has helped as well. Can't believe one of my pictures was chosen to be in this one of yours.......guess my learning is starting to show. (FYI: yes you did pronounce my name correct). Thanks for the time you spend in helping/teaching and/or advising others in expanding our coloring ability.
that was really helpful. m sure applying this in daily practice will improve my art
Thank you for the video. Really help to understand pencil color
Instead of buying water color pencil, i Accidentally bought classic color pencil. Thx for the tutorial
I'm just starting out and I've been watching a lot of videos on this topic. I must say, this one by far is the best most informative video. It even beats youtubers with millions of subscribers. Thank you so much for the helpful video.
That is a HUGE compliment! Greatly appreciate your support!
Liked and shared! I think this is a good all-around video to share, it's got all the techniques for bringing up your coloring skills to the next level.
Thank you I just got a few marvel coloring books and I’m gonna use your techniques thank you ☺️
❤❤❤ I came across your channel as I was trying to find inspiration for making colouring videos and I’m happy I did
Thank you! This was so helpful!
Thank you for this tutorial.
I've been a graphite and charcoal only artist for years and always envied and hated other artists who use color well..I feel like a child right now learning but i have no ego about it and I'm going to learn. This has been very helpful and looking forward to checking out your other vids
Wow your work is amazing.
your tips and tricks really helped
Your work is beautiful. Thank you for taking the time to share these techniques with us. I look forward to seeing more. I am also sharing this video and I liked it (of course) for your vacation give a way. Keep up the good work and enjoy your vacation.

This video really helped your a life saver!
Very helpful and explained heaps thank you soo much.👍
Thank you for sharing your videos
you explain everything so well and detailed other ppl try to show you how to blend and layer but they do not break it down like you do
You're shturpit😝😝😝
i just bought the 150 set of prismacolors for $86 on ebay...:)
That's a deal and a half!!
I don't want to be a bearer of bad news, but sadly, I anticipate that from your original set of 150, in a few months of just medium use, you'll be left with 2/3rds of your Prismacolour pencils that haven't broken, snapped or have failed to keep a point after sharpening.
The quality of these once great pencils has now gone to the dogs! The care when producing them since moving the production to South America is abysmal and is frankly a disgrace.
To sum it up, they're shite!!!!!
If you buy shite, expect to get shite!
Polychromos....aaahhhh, now THAT'S a fabulous pencil!

@@christophertudor4727 I didnt know there were pencil elitists.
@@christophertudor4727 I've had prismacolored pencils for a long time. So has my mom who is an artist. We've never had issues of them breaking.
Really nice of ur teaching ,I love it and understood clearly . Thanks👍 👏keep doing more
