So I decided to do another portrait of Mia. 🙂
I recently did a beginners art class with Worn Out Shoes Fine Art Studio where I was introduced to coloured pencils. I hadn’t used them since I was in school and I had no idea how to properly use them.
My final class project was finished before the last class, and I needed something to work on so I decided to try another portrait but using coloured pencils instead of graphite, which was all I had used (well, apart from a white pencil crayon for highlights) since I started drawing again.
Considering it’s only the 3rd thing I’ve done in colour I’m very happy with how it turned out.
If anyone’s interested, the first two things were in the art class and I have a clip of them on my Instagram.
Equipment used:
Portraitmate app on iPad to do the accurate outline drawing
Art-N-Fly oil based coloured pencils (72 pencil tin)
Generic embossing stylus (I think I got them on Wish) for the hair highlights
Strathmore 300 Series Bristol Pad
