How to Paint with Coloured Pencils by Jm Parramon

This book provides concise coverage of everything any artist interested in the medium of coloured pencil needs to know - materials, techniques, colour theory, and practical applications to a wide variety of subject matter. The chapter on basic methods explains such essentials as achieving gradations and values, mixing colours, white pencil, and mixed media techniques. Fully illustrated step-by-step practice exercises show how to compose an image using just the three primary colours and black; how to paint a still life using a full range of hues; how to create portraits working with a live model and with a photograph; and how to paint with watercolour pencils. Framing finished works is also discussed, and a glossary is included.
