Colouring Tip Video: Pencil Blending Basics
Tuesday, March 23, 2021
Hi everyone! I'm popping in here to share our first video in our new Colouring Tip series! I've had a few people ask how I get my smooth and rich pencil blending without any solvents, so in this video we are working on how to do that basic blend. This is the blending technique I use in all of my colouring for the most vibrancy and control. Th is technique can be used with any brand of pencils, but the blendability and vibrancy will depend upon the quality of the brand.
