Skin Tutorial

People are always asking about skin colours & how to shade them so here's how I do them...

First colour all over with a flesh tone pencil (I use Marco Raffine pencils & Whsmith pencils in all my colourings) ...

Next darken the edges with a tan brown pencil & also the usual dark places - under hair, under chin & under nose...

Next her give her a little blush & she's good to go...

Hope this helps show how easy it is to get skin looking great :)

Colouring pics has given me so many great opportunities & among these is being asked to join colouring teams for he artists. As well as being on Rick St Dennis design team as a colourist, I've also been asked by Lacy Sunshine creator Heather Valentin to join theirs. Of course I had to say yes, such cute images, how could I not.
So here's my first colourings for them...



These cuties can both be found here....

New Book by Bennett Klein

So I haven't been here in a few weeks life's got in the way, but I've been colouring & buying books I need & must have ;)

My newest one is Colour My Sketchbook by Bennett Klein.
Firstly this is a truly beautiful book & I was a little scared of screwing it up.



I love the images in here & the pages are good quality & one sided, so no bleed through issues.
