Laying colour tints over your reference photo for artists
Просмотров 4737 месяцев назад
In this short video I show you how you can use HEX codes to create and lay tints over your reference photo to help you visualise when wanting to try a monochromatic approach to a piece. This one was done ahead of working on a colour pencil tutorial of a pair of horses. The HEX chart that I refer to in this video can be found at Jennys Crayon Collection here... www.jennyscrayoncollection.com/202...
Blending Colour Pencil - Scrubber brush technique
Просмотров 2,5 тыс.11 месяцев назад
I often get asked about the 'scrubber brush' technique for smoothing out colour pencil pigment on a piece. So, here I am sharing part of a bigger tutorial where I work with the scrubber brush on the initial underlayers of pigment on this corgi portrait. I will use the brush again later on but you will see from this video more on the brush itself and how I use it. For early access to more of my ...

Corgi Dog - Coloured Pencil on Pastelmat - New Tutorial Release
I bought a set, and I can't wait to use them properly
Hello, thank you for the video. I'm new to pencil and pastel drawing and painting so I'd like to learn from your tutorials which I find excellent. Where do I get access to this particular tutorial? I mean list of materials and line drawing as well as a full step-by-step instruction. Thank you. Ursula
Hi, thank you for the feedback. This is a piece that I started in one of my in person workshops last month so is not a tutorial. But I do have over 100 tutorials and projects over on my Patreon channel www.patreon.com/lisaannwatkins
@@AnimalArtbyLAW Thank you for reply. Just have been asking about that particular image as it is exact "copy" of my late beloved Newfoundland who past away some time ago leaving sorrow behind. Anyway, thank you
Learned a lot....thankyou
❤❤❤ beautiful Lisa! I think you are the Queen 👑 on grass 🥰
Thanks so much for that will be so helpful.
Can’t you draw it freehand?
Yes I can but not everyone else can. This is just a tool to help EVERYONE have access to using colour pencils. Some get scared at the thought of trying to get a relatively good image transferred onto their support and not many had the privilege of going to art college like I did. People can use whatever method they like. Do you prefer to freehand?
Excellent video thanks. Almost all the other Gimp videos that describe this process , the screen image isn't clear and sharp. The voices are often muffled and worse they seem to try and rush through it as quickly as possible making it almost useless as an instructional video. The only way is to turn on subtitles and continually backspace the video to try and pick out what they just selected. I will be viewing your other video's thanks again. Regards Owen (from Down Under)
Just awesome information😊
Thanks Lisa, a beautiful horse portrait, love your work-Alan in Norfolk.
Amazing and exactly what is the mask that is laid down to protect the drawing from overspill?
Found your other video on frisket and thanks
@@deborahpark7953 fab, thank you. Was just about to direct you there.
You're doing wax oil...then water soluble pencil and water, then back over with wax oil pencil? REALLY CONFUSING
So you're putting water color pencil over wax oil pencil ? That works? Doesn't the pencil look awkward under the warecolor?
No I am adding water to watercolour pencils? But you can do it the other way too with success, just totally different to what I am doing here
So you only use water on the base and the rest is just pencil?
You don't pronounce the p so its just thalo
Amazing drawing….and very helpful thankyou. Do you have a patreon?
Thank you. Yes. It is www.patreon.com/lisaannwatkins
Such a lot of useful information, thank you Lisa 🥰
Perfect vídeo,thank you!what size do you usually work in?❤
I work in all sizes from 2" square to 2 feet square. I prefer something about 12 x 16" though
Did you spray fixative before applying colored pencil?
To save all that printer ink I put my photo into an app on my iPad, then on a ‘layer’ I draw all the outline and detail. I then print this simple line drawing to whatever size I want. If it’s larger than A4 I print it off in sections ☺️
Yes, that is another method that I show my students how to do it. I try to show as many different options possible from using a light box to creating line art digitally or like this simply printing off the reference. The print out can then be used throughout the drawing process as a reference
❤❤
I am working on my very first dog portrait on tan paper. In colored pencil. I've always liked the bokeh effect but never tried it. I really like how you've done this and I can't wait to apply this technique to my own drawing. Where did you get your pastels and your sponge blending tool? Oh, and I just love your hair. 😊
Time lapse skipped over how you smoothed over the blue in the eye
The whole process is in the video. Where I zoom out it might change the perspective but it's all there 😊
Ever designed your friskets digitally, then downloaded the files to a plotter to cut them out using frisket paper? Makes life a heck of a lot easier.
That's a great idea for those who might have one. I don't use the frisket often and this was just a method I shared yo make people aware of the product. To justify the price of a plotter I would need to utilise it much more but hopefully someone out there might read your suggestion and have access to one.
Wow, I am absolutely blown away by your artwork of foxes! The level of detail and the vibrant colors you used are simply mesmerizing. Each brushstroke seems to bring the foxes to life, capturing their grace and cunning in a way that feels both realistic and magical. The way you’ve managed to depict their fur with such texture and depth is nothing short of extraordinary. It looks so soft and fluffy that I almost want to reach out and pet them! Your choice of background perfectly complements the foxes, creating a harmonious balance that draws the viewer’s eye to the main subjects while still providing a rich, immersive environment. The light and shadow work is phenomenal, adding a dynamic and almost three-dimensional quality to the piece. I can tell that you put a lot of thought into every aspect, from the composition to the smallest details, and it really shows. The expressions on the foxes’ faces are incredibly expressive and full of character. It’s clear that you have a deep understanding of these beautiful creatures, and your passion for them shines through in your work. The playful glint in their eyes, the curious tilt of their heads, and the fluid motion of their bodies all contribute to a narrative that feels alive and engaging. It’s like you’ve captured a moment in time in the wild, allowing us to glimpse the secret world of these fascinating animals. I could spend hours admiring every intricate detail and still find new things to appreciate each time I look. Your talent is truly remarkable, and this artwork is a testament to your skill and creativity. Thank you for sharing such an awe-inspiring piece with us. It’s not just a drawing of foxes; it’s a captivating story and a work of art that evokes wonder and admiration. You are incredibly gifted, and I can’t wait to see more of your amazing creations!
Birds would give you the chance to use many more colours❤❤
The Derwent Drawing pencils are not water soluable.
The original description on the video states this and also says why I included it in the test
Great video with lots of useful information. Thanks.

Do you have a tutorial on how to draw a wolfhound
I find it impossible to keep a sharp point on my color pencils!!!!!
How does an eraser work on each?
Thank you!!!
Fabulous. I watched because I’m very interested in how Panpastels can help to fill tooth and cover larger areas in colored pencil drawings. I worry about the loss of media purity in the final result. Is it cheating? lol. But, I think my personality lends itself more to a workable shortcut to achieve a similar result. I’m anxious to see if you can achieve the same photorealistic cat by the end of the video! I’m subscribed and look forward to adding your knowledge and techniques to my current classes. Thanks!!!
Good info. I’m looking into an art projects since I’ve been injured and dragging my oils or heavy box of pastels.havent played with colored pencils in many years.
Hello Lisa, Thank you so very much for sharing your expertise. You are the only one I found that shows your reference along side of your work. I cannot find your part 1 and 3 video for this beautiful black cat on black paper. Would you kindly inform me where to find them? Thank you so much in advance.
I signed up for your Corgi Tutorial, but it says the page cannot be opened 😢
Hi, can you tell me which link you have an issue with, from what we can see all is up and accessible. Thanks
How do you fix a blurry reference picture I have a bay horse that somebody wants me to do and it is really blurry and I don't know how to fix it
youre awesome! thanks for your videos!
I really need to get my pencils working. Not attempted to use drafting film. This husky is beautiful. Beautiful art that you make look easy.
That slice knife makes quite a difference 🙂
Fabulous tutorial ❤
What didyou use to put was ink in? Or watercolour or paint to draw the black colour in?
This is really helpful. I came across a video that said, "You'll see here that I used a colour picker." I had no clue what they were talking about, so I was very happy to find your video. Thank you!
I love that you explain why. It means I can take things away to experiment , rather than just following along. And that you use your own photos for references.
Spot on, as ever.
No matter the level of difficulty, you make it seem so easy.
