Colored Pencil Portraits: Step-By-Step
This is a wonderful book. It is very informative if you want to learn to work with colored pencils. I recommend it to any bidding artist! |
If you can attend her workshop-do it!!!
I just attended her portrait workshop for 3 days & can tell you that this gal is the real deal! She's genuinely gifted & has such a wonderful & bubbly personality! I had attended a workshop 2 yrs. ago from a different cp artist & vowed not to go to any more until I decided to go to Ann's (whose workshop I wished I could've took in 2005 instead of Arlene's). This book will help you so much!! I am used to doing colored pencil with the scumbling method which takes forever!! Ann has developed the most amazingly easy technique that is so much faster & looks just as good if not better!! I think the only bad reviews must be by her ex! Ha! I want to attend the 2nd workshop someday that goes with her 2nd book. I have her CDs that go with her books & CDs of her online magazine for colored pencil. All are so helpful!! Her method & books will help even the worst of artists I believe! Thank you Ann for all of your help!! |
Colred pencil portraits
By far the most comprehensive guide to creating realistic skin tones in colored pencil. This volume leaves no stone unturned and will immediately increase your knowledge and ability. |
Terrific Book
Ms. Kullberg provides detailed instructions that will enable all levels of artists to see the joys of colored pencils. |
Excellent Starting Guide
I especially like the help she gives on skin color. It is a good start for a beginner when doing portraits. The other book by Ann Kullberg is great as well, Capturing soft realism in colored pencil. It is a good continuation from this book.
When you want to get a little more creative and your not so much of a beginner, then get the book by Vera Curnow - Creative Colored Pencil Portraits. |
