    I haven't had an art class since high school! I'm retired now and your lessons are so great. I love listening to you as you work. I have been able to do the strawberry and I did a study of 2 cardinals that I'm really happy with. Keep them coming.

    Thank you for another great video! I loved the tip about NOT using the white pencil to blend ALL the areas. I see people do this a lot and it really flattens all the color and dulls the final image. Using different colors is a much better option!

    Kirsty - Thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I am 65 and haven't had an art lesson since school (well over half a century ago). I've always loved drawing but never really known how to start learning the techniques. My "projects" always looked amateurish and I was never really pleased with *anything* I finished. When lockdown started last year I decided to try really hard to improve my art (I believe you are never too old to learn). I've followed your tips and techniques, watched your great tutorials and really practised and tried hard. Last week I drew a dog portrait for a friend who lost her beloved pet last year. I was actually proud of it, for the first time ever. She was so surprised she cried with pleasure. I wish I could show you just how much I have improved, thanks to you. I shall keep trying and (hopefully) keep getting better. You've made my retirement so much better - thank you.

      Your story is pretty much mine! When I was at school all those years ago, it seemed to me that people were either artistic, or not! But as a child I loved colouring, crayons, and all things related. I rediscovered that love during lockdown and now realise I can draw and love learning watercolour and now pencil art. Such an amazing hobby! And so thankful for people like Kirsty to teach me.

    I think part of the problem is vagueness in instruction. I remember in highschool art the teacher always said 'you need to build up color before blending'. I always interpreted that as press down and make it as saturated as you can. Then of course I could not add more color or detail.

    Yes! Can’t tell you how many times the subject of more layers are needed, for building depth and better blending comes up ...some believe me, others don’t...and I find this to be true from time to time even for myself...coloring an image with my Prismas for the first time in 2/3 months, been using other things and I knew I didn’t want to spend forever layering as many times as I normally do, with this particular one and as a result, I am having a hard time getting two colors to blend the way they usually do for me. Thanks for the reminders!

    appreciate this, the information about how you can make the misktake of trying to cover all the white spots by colouring too dark can leave a sketch you are colouring or drawing with colored pencils very one dimensional with no layers. I am trying to learn more about the stroking or colouring techniques and I found in this video and another how important layering is, that is what gives dimension to the color. Than you for posting the guide as well I am going to check it out.

    This really helped me use color so much more. You had said to keep your color pencils sharp because that is very important and I understand. But I do not use an electronic sharpener and I use one where I have to manually twist it in the sharper but my pencils always end up breaking and I can never get the sharpness I need which results in me having a rounded pencil top. Is there a specific sharper you use? I am 11 and trying to learn so these tutorials really really helped me. Thank you so much, have a good day.

    In art class in high school our art teacher had us blending repeatedly once she saw everyone was bad at it. We spent maybe a week learning colours and shades and techniques for blending and mixing.
    She was strict sometimes.

    I've seen some videos where people blend pencil colours with oil and brush, so I wanted to know is that because of difference in colour pencils like yours is of some other material different from them or it's just another way to blend. I would like to blend like you without brush and oil.

    Hello, My question is could I use rubbing alcohol instead of using solvent? In my town, solvent is not available. I'm also not sure whether it’s available in our country or not. If I could use rubbing alcohol, then what is the method?

    I have the problem when I want to go back over areas with coloured pencils that I previously blendet with oms and then hardly anything sticks to it,
    because the surface with the oms has become too smooth. The area that I want to go over again is often too small for texture fixative.

    • @FineArtforChrist
      @FineArtforChrist 3 года назад

      There could be a number of things causing this, but here are the most likely ones:
      1.) You added way too much solvent to blend that area. This over saturation can damage the tooth of the paper and alter the consistency of the paper. Unfortunately once this has been done there is not much that can be done to fix it.
      2.) You aren't using a paper that is meant for liquid media. I recommend a hot pressed watercolor paper or a mixed media paper, these are both good with solvent and will allow you many layers so long as you don't oversaturate the paper.
      As far as trying to fix an area too small for texture fixative, you could get a product called touch up texture. This product allows you to paint on more texture to the small areas where you need it. Hope this is helpful!

    @Waldo557 2 года назад

    lol, i regularly press the pencil hard onto the paper, and still manages to add layers to it. it could be that it depends on what brand you're using, but from my experience working with polychromos the drawing just turns alot more vibrant and well put together (if you know what you're doing haha)

      She probably won't so here's what I recommend doing. Watch the video and pick whatever colors you have that look similar. The colors don't have to be exactly the same as hers, they just need to be close. Then once you have selected your own version of the colors, follow her instructions substituting in your colors for hers. Hope this is helpful!
