"My drawings tend to not look good until the last ten minutes." LOL ... very important point!!
That's why I always say patience is the most important skill to learn for making art. When people say things like "I could never do anything like that", I always ask how long they have spent on a single drawing or piece of art. The response is usually between 5 minutes and 30 minutes, sometimes an hour. When I tell people that anything Ive done that I'm proud of has taken no less than 8-10 hours, and the hyper realistic drawings up to 300 hours. Anybody can make art, its just a matter of desire and patience.
😅I was wondering too! This video was so informative and I am now a PRO!🎉😂
@rolandserafini You're so right. The last really good piece of art I drew took me 10 hours over 2 days. When my teacher said; "That is a good drawing." I knew it was because he didn't compliment easily.
Another drawing I did took half a day, and complete concentration.
I’m on my first drawing and noticed that!!!! It was like an Ah-Ha moment 😅
Always trust the process
This was very helpful. One thing I needed to learn and I am grateful I did, and that is that it's ok if the art doesn't look good right away, or even in the first 80%. I have been rushing the results by trying to burnish too soon to get the end result way before it was layered enough for that.
Very true. I belonged to a group that met once a week. We had a model, and we worked in various mediums, so I was able to see the artists' work at all stages. Everyone's work looked quite horrible until the end
Keep at it. You''ll learn to love it. I got into it because I wanted something portable, and l
wouldn't have to deal with solvents because of allergies.
This is amazing. I've always been so intimidated by colored pencils because I felt like they had so little blendability. This is exactly what I needed to see. Thank you!!
It's the best hobby for high blood pressure sufferers I have an off grid cabin that I draw in just me and my dog

Very helpful, thank you!
I could try this for 30 years and never get there ☺️☺️ you’re amazing and I love your video ! You just have a natural sense of what to do ! Amazing talent !
I love it so much. You are so professional and meticulous. I especially appreciate that u don't colour with hard pressure. I really like u and I will subscribe
I love these, and also, if you like alcohol markers, hobby lobby usually does a sell 40% off for master touch markers.
Good honest assessment of the process/movements/pencil pressure. This helped me get an understanding of what to do now that I’m just starting experimenting with prisma.
Thank you so much for all your wonderful tutorials. You are an inspiration.
Thank you for such an informative video. I am new to colour pencils and this has helped me with how to layer properly
Your drawing is amazing Gemma ❤
This is incredibly helpful! Thank you so much!
Thanks for a working in tip so we can see the changes as you explain! It really helped a lot! 🤗❤️👍🏾💯
Beautiful work!
This is so gorgeous and incredible!! 😻💕💗
Can you do it step by step
WOW so realistic well done as always 👍💖😊
I draw with this tutorial & it turned out cool. Thank you so much!
Thank you. It looks great!
Cool! Looks great!
I do plan on starting coloured pencil again. Though, I do also plan on blending them with a solvent and layering. I do watch another artist who does just that with her coloured pencil to the point it really looks like a painting.
Wow..You are AMAZING!!! Love the Video's You make!! I do have arthritis in my thumbs so I now can color very softly.. I am/was a heavy hander.. THANKS!!!🙏🤟❣
Thank you so much you calmed me down on trying to draw sukunas fire arrow I tried 3 times but this time I will do it
Thank you very much for this tutorial!
This was really helpful! Thank you i dont know when i first buyed prismacolor!❤
Beautiful!
Thank you so much for posting this
Brilliant!! Well Done... I learn a lot from your videos.. Thank you... from Chicago!!
This was such an awesome video. Ah you create magic.
Really love your drawings and looking forward to joining Patreon soon. 👍
Thanks again for sharing your tips! 💯 ❤
wow this really helped me
super neat i love it
I Been drawing for 13 years it’s fun
Wow really an instructional that nailed it thank u
I appreciate this video!!! Thankyou
Your drawings look very beautiful❤
one thing i can add is u can use chalk pastels for that initial layer to get some color down. very easy to apply, no white of the paper showing through and solid initial layer, then a spray of fixative is optional but u get a solid surface to work on
`thanks sooo much! I love your tutorials and your voice :)
Perfection!!!!
Thanks!
I am stunned by the colour, very excited by the beautiful work you have achieved with a colour pencil. I will check out the rest of your videos and tutorial. Thank you Mary
Thank you so much! I love how vibrant and detailed colour pencils can be, you just have to be patient with them
This is a really helpful video. ❤❤
The pear looks realistic
Wow....I hope to get to this level one day ❤
thank you for the tips
I do the same thing with my drawings, I start off with the lightest color to the darkest. Prismacolor is the best pencil brand!
Thanks i learned a lot ❤
This was such a good easy simple video that got to the point. It also shows that while you do need skill you mostly need time and patience.
Very good video. Thank you
Thank you!
Wonderful
nice job drawing!
You're my saviour
This is great!! 🤩
I would like to know what it the best type of paper for oil/wax based colored pencils??
Your art work is amazing, i like it =]
Thank you very much
Superb👍👍😃
Hi just subscribed love your channel
wow this really helped me!
hello
banana joe
Wow. Absolutely loved this tutorial. I dont have these pencils. Only the derwent studio, but hoping to increase my skill level so I can eventually spend a bit of money and get some really good ones xxx
Thanks very much! I haven't personally used Derwent Studio but I've heard good things. Good luck in your art journey!
I am actually just starting with pencils. What’s the best paper for colored pencil? I love the way you blend. It’s really nice and smooth.
That was awesome!! Thank you!! By the way, you are so cute!!❤❤
Hi Gemma, Do you have a favourite paper for Prismacolor pencil art? Completely smooth or slightly textured? Thank you and best wishes, Ann
thank you
thank you lady
❤wow lovethat
very nice
A lot of effort and tolerance😂❤
Subbed. And thanks.
Looks amazing. What brand of paper did you use?
hi i just started using prismacolor and i got the level one flower step by step outline and shading set but i haven't been able to find a lesson video for it anywhere do u have or would u be able to help me find a link for that one?
I love colored pencils so much!! Thank you for the video!
how did you literally just use 6-8 colors and do that entire drawing… i’m blown away but also like confused as to how this even works 😅😅 guess i need to just start trying
I tried this on Strathmore Bristol Vellum with Caran d'Ache Luminance and I couldn't get it to blend like yours. Should I have used the Bristol Smooth instead?
Amazing drawing....😍
thanks
Crazy how with like a minute to go it just looked like a spludge of green and red , then it came together so well
Which shades did you use!? Ooo this is pretty!
I drew this pear as well! Although it was a while ago and I was using polychromos rather than prismacolor. I really like how yours turned out! You’re very patient with the layers. It’s important to be patient but I struggle with it so I only do colored pencil art when I’m in the right mood😂
i've been trying for a long time.. I don't get the colors right.. When I try layering it just becomes mud.. never looks like anything Im trying to draw.. I don't get it. Im about to just give up
@@zinta1 something that might help you is looking into color theory. Basically with colored pencils it’s easy to layer colors on top of each other that might just give you a muddy result. If you’re working with paint it’s easier to tell which mix of colors makes mud! Don’t give up:)
Thanks so much! I know what you mean, colour pencil has to be one of the slowest medias and it doesn't come together until the very end. I don't paint but if I'm feeling impatient I always turn to my pastels for that 'quick win' feeling 😀
@@zinta1 Try watching Drawholic here on youtube, they're very good at layering and I think if u watch them and see how/which colors they use to layer over each other will also help you understand which colors work with each other when layering as well
@@zinta1don't stop. That only guarantees failure.
Where did you get the pear outline? I know it sounds silly, but I need to ask. Thanks! It looks great!
She made the shape as she went , no outline ( maybe )
Is the key to realism Burnishing?
Gemma do you have one for this with polychromos!??? Would love to see one this was so helpful!! thank you ur doing awesome thanks for all your hard work
Thanks very much! Definitely check out my guide to blending where I drew an apple with Polychromos. The concepts from this video and that one are really similar and there's a lot of cross over 😊
Wish I will be learned
Hey Gemma I hope you see this, Your drawing is amazing ❤
Thank you, this is very informative! For information, how long did it take you to colour it?
Thanks, I'm glad it helped! I really take my time with colour pencils - this one took a little over 2 hours to finish.
What paper do you use?
Did you write the book about color pencil technique?
I'm assuming you're using the flat side of the pencil at the beginning of your sketch?
I used to go from darkest to lightest and the artwork looked more dark, now i wanted to go from light to dark but some of video suggests to go from dark only!
To each their own. I used to color this way until I started tattooing over 20 years ago. In tattooing we don't have the luxury of layering or else we will chew up the skin. I quickly learned that I was previously just simply afraid of commitment. And now I can't unsee it. Whenever I see someone layering colors like this, I see a fear of commitment. Once you realize this fact and start pounding the color in fast and hard you will be amazed at how much richer and how much quicker your artwork becomes. Blending is not only achieved by layering it is achieved by hand pressure.
Just my 2 cents.
for sure, but I wouldn't always say layering is a fear of commitment, sometimes it depends on what depth/shade/hue of color we're lookin for but I also get what you mean lol
Like you said ...to each their own.
Both approaches , it depends on what you want. Tattoo! Wow, there's a surface I haven't tried. For paper consider using Bristol Plate. Press hard and apply thick. Then scrape all thickness off. The paper will hold a good deal of pigment which will look like magazine printed surface.

"wow, it's really starting to apPEAR"
Wonderful! How long did it take you to do this pear?
Thanks! I believe this was about 2 hours in total
@@GemmaChambersArt I love your work so much! Your amazing!
Amazing work 👏🏻, thank you for sharing Do you follow circular strokes throughout or just at the beginning!?
Thank you! This one was pretty much circular strokes for everything except the little texture spots at the end 🙂
@@GemmaChambersArt thank you for answering my question 😊❤️🙏🏻
Circular strokes! Thanks.
Will this work without prismacolor?
Hello Gemma. I hope that you are one of those that actually read comments as I have a question. I noticed in this vid that you use brown and not black on the green to create depth. Could you explain the reason for not using black? Thankyou, Derek.
I certainly try to read and answer as many as I can! I do like to use browns and greys for shadows where possible, I find it's a much softer and true-to-life way to add darker areas. True black isn't all that common in nature and it for me it can look quite harsh if used in a realistic drawing. I go into more detail on this in my recent black cat drawing video where even black fur is mostly made up of dark greys and deep blues, with black only being found in the very darkest areas.
