Watercolor Pencil Drawing Biography
Using Watercolor Pencil
Basic Watercolor Pencil Application
Sketching With Watercolor Pencil
When using watercolor pencils with water, use watercolor paper, as regular drawing paper will buckle when dampened. The most common approach to watercolor pencil is to loosely color an area, then brush water over it to create a wash effect. When applying color in this manner, remember that the wash will look a few shades lighter than the pencils you are using, once diluted by the wash.
Achieving Dense Color
Watercolor can be densely layered like regular colored pencil. Water can be applied to heavily applied color, though it can be tricky to control. Experiment with applying just a little water at time, to minimise dilution of the pigment. Applying more water can give a painterly effect, though it is difficult to control.
I've always been crazy about the careful combination of watercolor and pencil so you can only imagine my excitement when I came across Esra Roise. I can't get over how perfectly she uses light and shadow to fully model her figures. Her depiction of hair is exquisite, all while maintaining a very relaxed mood to her drawings. I recognized her work through some pieces she did for fashion and pop culture magazine, Nylon. Really awesome stuff.
I'm Esra, a Norwegian freelance illustrator, living and working in Oslo, Norway. I started out with two years at Einar Granum School of Arts, and I am currently taking my bachelor degree in Visual Communications at the National Academy of the Arts in Oslo.
Watercolor Pencil Workshop -- Online!
Watercolor pencils have come into their own. From the earliest hard, scratchy pencils with bizarre colors, they've developed into a true fine art tool. New brands and types offer soft, rich, buttery application, as well as colors both subtle and intense. You can choose watercolor crayons or blocks, as well, to cover larger areas more easily and for bold effects.
Use them for quick sketches, when you want just a touch of color or to supplement another medium, or to make a complete painting -- they're up to the challenge.
They're convenient as well, easy to tuck into purse or pocket -- as few or as many as you can carry. You can take water with you to work plein air, use the new water-brushes with a supply of water right in the handle, or add it later to blend the colors.
They're light, quick, and versatile.
Watercolor pencils offer all that, plus vibrant color and the versatility of watercolor. They're bold and splashy or controlled and subtle. They're great for sketching outdoors or from life, as well as for doing completed paintings in the studio - all you need is to learn HOW. Despite what we often imagine, you don't do a completed drawing in watercolor pencils, then wash over it all with water and presto, a painting! You work in layers, just as you do in watercolor, wetting each as you go along. It takes a bit of practice to get the effects you want, but once you learn the tricks, oh my - they're wonderful.
