Colored Pencil Drawing Hacks - 10 Tools and Tips

In this video I show you 10 colored pencil drawing hacks, tips, and a few tools that will help you with your colored pencil drawings. These tips and tools that you can use are 100% archival for your drawings and are not going to hurt them with the longevity of their life. These hacks will help you achieve various effects in your colored pencil drawings. I give a brief demonstration of each colored pencil drawing tip and describe the details to what it is and show you how it can help you with your colored pencil drawings. These tips can help you with preserving white areas on your drawings, as well as help you immensely with creating whiskers and white hairs! And near the end of the video I also demonstrate some of these colored pencil drawing techniques and tips with drawing a dog.

Oh wow! I don't personally use color pencils, but I was thinking about trying them out.🤔

[@jessicamatheneyfineart]

They are sure fun to work with at times! You should give them a try, maybe you'll like it. :) Have you only worked in graphite, or have you tried anything else before?

[@waywardcreativity431]

@@jessicamatheneyfineart I'm barely learning how to properly use graphite. But I love learning, about all kinds of art. It's so fascinating to me!🥰 I try to improve my style of art in any way possible, it is worth it!💖🥰

Hack number 10, never thought about doing that Jessica, fab idea! Also definitely need to invest in some glassine, I currently use tracing paper and it's ok but not quite good enough. New subscriber here :D

[@jessicamatheneyfineart]

I'm glad this video was of some help to you! And thanks. :) Glassine is very helpful, it's like wax paper and hardly picks up the colored pencil.

[@EveHarveyArt]

[@jessicamatheneyfineart]

Thank you so much 😀 I went on a trip to the UK last year, it was really awesome, the time transition was a little difficult after the flight, 7 hrs apart or something? So if it's 7pm there, that would be 12 pm where I live. XD I would definitely be willing to take you up on that offer sometime, we'll have to set up a day when we can do that.

[@EveHarveyArt]

@@jessicamatheneyfineart hey thanks so much for joining the stream it was great being able to speak to you! I've been to America before the flight is so long but I think the longest flight I've been on was like 10 hours ish aha
