Amelia Whifffin studied on our Coloured Pencil Online Art Course and created some wonderful full colour drawings, one of which you can see below.
Coloured pencil is a very versatile medium in that you can create smaller studies and sketches or create full finished pieces like Amelia has below. The range of colours you can purchase is incredible, so you should never be stuck for a colour variant.
Manufactures like Derwent provide you with boxes of pencils for different subjects – i.e. all the colours you might need for skin tones for example, or landscapes. This gives you a good basis to start from and then you can purchase pencils separately as and when required.
Don’t forget all of our students receive discounts on Derwent products. Purchasing art materials can be costly, especially when you are starting out on a new hobby. So this is a great way of taking advantage of learning a new skill and being able to experiment with all the materials you need at great prices.
