I’ve being searching for fur titorials, this is probably the best one I’ve seen so far, thanks you so much
You're so welcome!
Best fur tutorial i have ever seen thanks ❤️
This has been a fascinating tutorial I have been trying for ages to successfully do fur on animals you made it look so easy but I’m sure it’s not I will try again using your methods thank you
I'm glad it was helpful! It all just takes time and practice 😊
👌👏Thanks, awesome!
These are wonderful tutorials! As a beginner I have so many questions concerning materials and methods. I’m finding that these have a good well rounded start to many of the issues that someone starting out will have along the way. Awesome! Can’t wait to start! 👍❤️🌝
Thankyou, I appreciate it 😊
I'm glad you find them useful, and good luck starting!
Best tutorial I have seen on how to render fur! Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Lovely tutorial, so helpful
Glad it was helpful! :)
so talented :)....love watching your videos!!
Thankyou 😊
Thank you so much. Great tutorial. Just what I needed. I subscribed.
Glad it helped!
That was an amazing tutorial…thank you😊
You’re welcome 😊
Love your teaching
Thank you 😊
Hi Rebecca! I love this tutorial, and those three method, but I'm in love of the last one, mix technique, watercolor pencils and colored pencils, looks beautiful! Thank you and I miss a lot your videos here😔
Thank you 😊
I do plan on uploading more videos on CZcams once I am feeling a bit better!
@@KirstyRebeccaFineArt oh, ok! I forgot! I'm sorry, please take care, and get well soon😊🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Amazing!!! Thanks a ton ❤
You're welcome 😊
i did an exercise similar to this before finding your channel but without solvent and without the knife method. i also did the same activity in pastel pencils and defiantly preferred those but i went out and got some solvent today so am going to redo this with wax pencils and solvent and compare.
Solvent is amazing! It really makes a huge difference 😊
Fantastic 👍👍👍♥️♥️♥️🤗🤗🤗
Thanks 🤗
Love it
Thank you 😊
Osm...
Thanks for these tips Kirsty. I also use coloured pencils and watercolour pencils (the FC Albrecht Durerwcps) however I don't apply the watercolour pencils directly onto the paper first (I don't like the lines they sometimes leave) so I scratch them onto a Caran d'Ache palette (on the rough side) and then activate the watercolour with a brush and water before applying to the paper. A rough plastic chopping board can also be used as a palette. I learned this technique from Wendy Hollander. Hope this tip is useful.
Very interesting method!
grazie mille bella
❤️
With the exception of the first technic I have not seen the other technics before or was aware of what happens when mixing or using different mediums.
Yes, there are other techniques you can use as well (I have another video where I explain 5 different ways of blending coloured pencil!) 😊
Hi! I really enjoyed your tutorial! What is the type of paper you would recommend for this 3 techniques that you showed ?
Glad you enjoyed it 😊
I like using white Clairefontaine Pastelmat (it's the same paper I use for pastels) but I also use Arches (or Fabriano) hot pressed watercolour paper, Canson Mi Teintes pastel paper (not the touch/tex version) on the smooth side
Those are the 3 papers that I use the most with coloured pencil, but there are other options out there as well 😊
Never heard of OMS before.
brilliant thanks, its the fur strokes i have a problem with though
Could you so this with pastel pencils? Wonderful video!
Thankyou, it is on my list to get a pastel one done, so hoepfully soon 😊
Hi, thank you so much for your videos, you are very talented ❣️....do you ever use prismacolor coloured pencils??
Hi Bridgette, I'm glad you like the videos!
I have a set of Prismacolor (I've taken out all the pencils that aren't lightfast so it leaves me with about half the set)
But I don't find myself using them because of quality issues - they tend to break A LOT when sharpening and I just can't be bothered dealing with them to be honest!
My top 3 coloured pencils that I use are the Derwent Lightfast (my all-time favourite) then Faber Castell Polychromos and Caran D'ache Luminance
There's nothing wrong with Prismacolor if you have them, and you can get amazing results by following the same techniques I use but I feel like I have better options so I don't really use them that often 😊
which sharpener do you use to sharpen the luminance pencils? My faber-castell trio sharpener always destroy my caran d'ache luminance pencils. Great video btw!
Thankyou!
Lately I've been using manual crank handle sharpener. Swordfish is the brand I use but Derwent have one called "Super point Mini" which is very similar 😊
I use these for pastel pencils which are really crumbly and they work quite well!
This is a link to the swordfish one (you may be able to get a better price elsewhere) but this shows you what it is 😊

@@KirstyRebeccaFineArt Thank you!
Have you ever tried using Derwent Inktense as a base layer instead of watercolor? I think it could be very helpful for getting a permanent base layer
You could definitely try it, although Derwent have specified that they do not test the lightfastness of the inktense once water has been added... so I personally wouldn't use them on anything that I am planning on selling 😊
But if you aren't worried about the longevity or archival quality of your work then it's worth a shot!
I have the full set of inktense pencils and blocks and they're definitely fun to work with, but again, I would only make prints from my art that I created with them.. and coloured pencil takes such a long time that I wouldn't want to waste those hours on something I couldn't potentially sell
Hope that makes sense! 😊
Fantastic spot on video for people who start with coloured pencils.
I usually use OMS with coloured pencils on Pastelmat but the OMS bleeds into the Pastelmat around the subject and stains the paper it when dry. My brush is not as wet as yours, as I can tell from the video. Any ideas?
I get this as well sometimes!
I usually only use OMS on the first few layers then I always go over the top with pencil, so if there's any staining, it will be covered
If I need to blend a layer that I'm worried about staining, I'll make sure I have more pigment than I think I need down, then dip the brush tip in oms and dab off as much as you possibly can, so it's pretty much dry because it will still blend that way, you may just need to work it for a bit longer!
Also I rarely leave the background white on my works so I don't see the stain (if there is one) as much as some other artists might!
Hoepfully that helps!
@@KirstyRebeccaFineArtthank you. I recently drew a dog in cp and the background was already done in pan pastels. The OMS was bleeding from the dog into the pastel and I had a hard time to fix it. I have to be more careful.
Hi Kirsty . So can you use OMS on the pencils after. You have started with watercolour pencils. I realise I would have to use water on the first layers of water pencils but when I go over it with ordinary pencils can I then use OMS. 👍
I haven't tried it honestly, but I don't see why it wouldn't work! Just make sure you have a few layers of normal pencil down before adding the solvent in case it reactivates the watercolour pencil 😊
Hello, first of all, thank you for sharing your knowledges. Excuse me, the first technique (layering) is layering first and then strokes with the pencils?
You're welcome 😊
The layering technique is just many layers of strokes, so I'm not sure what you mean?
As the layers build, the strokes begin to look like fur texture
I'm not sure if that helps!
@@KirstyRebeccaFineArt I mean that if to make cat fur are lines on top of ech other. Excuse my bad english, i dont write very well, but i read and listen excellent. I just i wanna draw my beloved cat but i can´t, am stuck.
@@estrellaastrid9027 All of the techniques involve layering, but usually, you add more details as the layers develop - it's a bit hard to explain, easier to show you!
This tutorial might help 😊

What paper or film are you working on. What brand pencil
This is Clairefontaine Pastelmat, and I used a varierty of coloured pencils but my favourite brands are Derwent Lightfast, Faber Castell Polychromos, and Caran D'ache Luminance 😊
Can i use pastel pencils as underlayer ?
You definitely can 😊
Can i use winsor oil colour solvents?
I haven't heard of that, but if it's a solvent/odourless mineral spirits made for oil painters, it will probably be fine 😊
@@KirstyRebeccaFineArt its low odour solvent
I’m struggling to know which type of paper to use for drawing dog fur
With coloured pencil, there are a few options.. I like white Clairefontaine Pastelmat, Arches hot-pressed watercolour paper, Canson Mi Teintes pastel paper (smooth side)
But there are a lot of options that others like to use as well 😊
