Colored pencils Coloured pencils and basic water If you are a novice in the art? Want to learn how to start? Here are some basic features of color pencil that will be helpful in your drawing. It's a good idea to spend some time exploring the medium of color pencil with small pieces before attempting a major drawing.
As with a graphite pencil, there are a variety of techniques you can employ when drawing with colored pencil. Whatever you choose will depend on the final effect you are aiming. The techniques are as follows:
Shading: Using a side shading motion single side, one smooth layer of color is built. A very light touch can be used to deposit the least amount of pigment for graduated shading.
Incubation: fast, regular, evenly spaced lines are drawn, leaving a white paper showing little or underlying color.
Hatching: Hatching overlaid at right angles. This can be done with different colors, or carried through multiple layers to create a textured effect.
Glaze: This is Brillo pad "the" method, tiny overlapping circles rapidly drawn. Again, it can be used to construct a single color or different colors.
Directional brands: short directional lines which follow a contour, or the direction of hair or grass or other surfaces. These can be densely covered form a rich textural effect.
Incised Marks: Two thick layers of color are superimposed, color striped top gently with a blade or pin to let the lower layer of grace.
Browning: It is simply layers of colored pencil covered with a strong pressure to the tooth of the document is completed and the results smooth surface. This image shows a smooth surface compared to a basic overlay of color. With a bit of color, especially with the waxier pencils watercolor pencils used for this example, an effect quite translucent and jewel-like can be achieved with careful grinding.
After the base color pencils, its time to learn to use color pencils water. Using watercolor pencils is very similar to the "normal" pencil or color pencil. You must take the same way, refining the same way, and besides, you can always delete them!
It is when you add water in the equation that their singularity appears. There are different ways to do so. For starters, you can paint with water on your drawing. Or you can lift the paint from the pencil with a brush and then apply it to your paper, wet the pencil and draw with her, or wet the medium on which you work.
By painting on watercolor pencil with a brush that was loaded with water pencil marks, dissolves in watercolor. The intensity of the wash produced depends on the quantity of pencils that were applied on the paper. The higher lead pencil, the more intense the color. Be selective in which areas you into lava to make the best use of the unique properties of watercolor pencils.
Staining Happy as "practice makes man perfect!
