About this book

Anyone who has always wanted to draw in colored pencil but finds all those colors intimidating can breathe a sigh of relief after opening this book. Drawing Made Easy: Colored Pencil shows readers how to draw almost anything in colored pencil with ease!

*Named One of the 54 Best Colored Pencil Drawing Books of All Time by BookAuthority*

After introducing readers to the tools and materials needed to get started, award-winning artist Eileen Sorg demonstrates how to draw flowers, still lifes, animals, and a variety of other objects by building up color and form in simple layers. By the last page, readers will be able to draw a horse, a bowl of fruit, a tree frog, a puppy, and even a garden gnome with beautiful, vibrant color. The book also includes in-depth information on tracing and transferring images, so aspiring artists don’t even need to know how to draw to master the art of colored pencil!

COLORED PENCILS

This project is just plain fun! It is a great opportunity to use a multitude of different colors in one drawing. You are not limited to the colors I have chosen so feel free to experiment and explore your own color palette. In order to make your pencil barrels round, it is important to have a light side and an opposite shadow side. For the shadow side you’ll simply apply your color with heavier pressure than on the light side. Another option for creating more complex shadows is to choose a slightly darker color and apply it to the shadow side of the pencil barrel; then place your final color over it for a deeper layered effect.

Denim blue

Pale vermillion

Process red

Imperial violet

Burnt ochre

Step 1 I lightly transfer the basic line drawing onto a sheet of smooth, acid-free drawing paper. It may help you to use a small ruler to keep your lines straight for this project.

Step 2 I use denim blue and pale vermilion to fill in the first two pencils. I apply heavier pressure on the left side of the barrels and lighter pressure on the right to indicate roundness.
