Today we drew from small objects using coloured pencils (not water soluble). We experimented with building up colour using layers, we experimented with blending using a ‘Caran D’Ache’ blender (which did blend colours, but also changed the colour, in some cases making it very bright), the blending also created a shine to some pencils. We explored using vaseline over the top of the pencil marks and it which did blend well with some pencils. Generally, we found that different pencils responded in various ways to the techniques tried. (Work done at home that students have brought in also at the end of the photos.)
A really fun session, thank you everyone!
