How do you make things look wet, in colored pencil? Scott’s beautiful tutorial will show you how, step by simple step. Starting with a lovely gray Canson paper, you will take a complicated still life and break it down into sections that are easily rendered.

What you’ll learn:

• Begin with a value study, then build color and finally, apply the layers that make each rock come alive with glisten and shine.
• Textures, pastels, water and a vibrant, nature inspired color palette – it’s all here in this amazing summer project!
• You won’t believe how simple it is, and once you’re finished, you’ll be able to recreate the kiss of water on rocks and other solid objects.

About In-Depth Tutorials:

Created by master colored pencil artists, each In-Depth tutorial features 30+ steps and focuses on teaching you why and not just how the artist applies their technique. No book or video comes close to the amount of instruction in an In-Depth tutorial. Art instruction books typically contain 4-6 steps per demo. That just scratches the surface! With large images and 30 or more steps, In-Depth tutorials truly show you exactly how the artist works, making it easy to truly learn new colored pencil techniques and achieve success.

Note: Drawing paper not included. See list of supplies needed in images.
