Description: I have been getting a lot of requests lately to show how to blend colored pencils. So I thought I would make a short video showing a few different techniques I usually use in my drawings. There are several techniques out there but I am only showing my preferred blending methods. I use these techniques for my drawings according to the objects that I am drawing. Layering method --- for very smooth seamless blending --- Skin, cast shadows etc Burnishing --- for shiny colorful objects like plastics and shiny fruits. Blender pencils --- for light skin tones and to spread a light color evenly on paper. Solvents –- I use this method for almost anything except skin. Suitable for garments brightly colored objects, birds etc. White pencil --- If you want to dull the color and get a whitish finish. Suitable for flowers with light pastel colors. Colors used for this demo  Prismacolor pencils listed below. Square – Sky blue light, light aqua and aquamarine (from light to dark) Butterfly upper wings – Hot pink, Process red, Mulberry, Dahlia purple (from light to dark) Butterfly lower wings – Lilac, parma violet, violet, dark purple (from light to dark) My Social media links  • FACEBOOK – facebook.com/artfadil • INSTAGRAM -- instagram.com/art.fadil • TWITTER -- twitter.com/ArtFadil BGM -- Cipher - Electronic Light by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution license (creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) Source: incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1100844 Artist: incompetech.com
