Baby steps


So now I've gone and read three or five books on colored pencil, and I'm ready to start laying the rubber on the road. I thought colored pencils were pretty simple; they're not. So I've got quite a few things to learn. I'm working on the drawing of Tom from the previous post, meanwhile it's time to actually go!

So here's two drawings of a mango, from a reference photo. Neither one is anything much, but this was a good go. The second one's better than the first, though the use of green got out of control somehow. This second one featured a lot of burnishing with the white pencil.
