Coloured pencil people drawings
Posted: February 14, 2018 Filed under: Uncategorized 9 CommentsIn my bag there are always two small sketchbooks. There used to be just one but I like the Stillman & Birn Nova series so much (especially the tan paper) that I have added that as well. Makes for a heavy bag, but I never know what will catch my eye when I have a few minutes to draw. Of course that means I also have to carry more drawing supplies. I bought a cheap set of fat coloured pencils that are double-sided (six pencils/twelve colours) and quite like layering them on the toned paper. And the best thing about the toned paper is that you get to add white!

HI Suzanne.
I bought the set at Flying Tiger. I’m sure it’s a set for children. It looks like this but there is no brand name on it and mine are fatter with only six pencils in the set:

Pencils are always great to have around in your bag. I like to have some watercolor pencils with me, too, as I can add water to the drawings later. Nice work!

I do love coloured pencil, used to great effect here. Great execution, lovely double page spreads. I think I know where you were doing these. 😉

Just saw these. Very good. I think there is such liveliness, or energy in colored pencil strokes. I use them often and have more than I should have. And watercolor pencils. And as said above, easy to take with you.Hope you do more..
