Description

I haven't messed around with colored pencils in a long time. Zindy recently inspired me with her new Avril Lavinge colored pencil portrait so I dug out the CP's and had a go at one. I think this turned out ok but I am not very good with skin tones, so be easy on me. I used a grainy paper on this drawing too, which is why it's not as smooth as my other drawings.

I am just getting into using colored pencils, been drawing for years with graphite.  Do you have any suggestions on where I can find tutorials on drawing and blending with colored pencils?  I mainly draw portraits so am interested in learning to draw the correct skins tones like you did.  Awesome work!
