The lady can draw!!! Love this piece!

Wow.

 

[Joy]

Outstanding - this is one of my fave pieces that you have done. The directional brushstrokes and expert layering of color really make it sing. I don't do CP; it seems so labor intensive. Oh, and whiskers are very natural looking.

 

[Jo Castillo]

This is just super. I'm with Joy and don't do much colored pencil. This does really sing!

 

[Artyczar]

So good Bee!

 

[Enyaw]

The eyes say it all. Lovely piece.

 

[Donna T]

Wow! Impressive!

 

[Queen Bee]

Thanks Christine and John.

 

[Queen Bee]

Thanks Joy and Jo. I love using colored pencils. They do take a lot of time. On the plus side they are not messy and are easy to travel with.

 

[Queen Bee]

Thanks, Arty, Wayne and Donna

Bee do you use any solvent to blend your coloured pencils?

I did not on this one. I never have. I do sometimes use a blending pencil and tortillons.

Maybe I should try. I have the coloured pencils and I have a wonderful book by a wonderful coloured pencil artist with tips how to do it. I guess I’m always afraid I’m gonna end up like we did as kids in school with a great big waxy mess with too many layers. Of course those are the cheap pencils.
