Knowing how to make your surfaces and textures look real is one of the most challenging aspects of creating art in colored pencil, even for experienced artists. 101 Textures in Colored Pencil provides artists with step-by-step instructions for drawing a wide variety of the most common textures and surfaces, including sand, water, metals, foliage, wood, fabrics, stone, grass, hair, and many more. To get you started, this comprehensive guide opens with a review of tools and materials as well as basic skills , such as strokes, effects, and color mixing. Each page of instruction is a comprehensive resource on how to create a specific texture , complete with two to three easy-to-follow steps and a final, detailed image of the finished artwork. Plus, the book is organized into sections based on subject matter, so you can easily find the specific texture you're looking for. An artist's gallery in the back of the book provides examples of the textures in completed works of art. Just a sample of the textures you will learn to render: People : smooth skin; aged skin; straight, curly, and wavy hair; lips Animals & Insects : smooth, curly, and course canine fur; elephant skin; feather; fish scales Fabrics & Textiles : burlap, tweed, silk, velvet, leather, lace, sequins Glass, Stone, Ceramics, Wood & Metal : porcelain, polished silver, hammered brass, peeling paint Food & Beverage : red wine, cut citrus fruit, coconut, peach, dark chocolate Nature : smooth and rough bark, moss, river pebbles, still and rippled lake, clouds 101 Textures in Colored Pencil includes all the textures you need to create realistic masterpieces in colored pencil. Review: Super helpful! - I'm an adult coloring book junkie, always on the hunt for a way to improve my skill set...no pressure, just like seeing my pages get "better." This book is fabulous for creating depth, dimension and texture with your color pencils. And you don't have to use Prismas or Polys to get good results. I've been stepping outside my "P" box and using some other brands of less expensive pencils: Castle, Kalour, Black Widows, Goldfarber and my favorite, Arteza. And my results have been pretty darn good. Each technique is fully explained and illustrated (in color) and there is everything from fur to glass included. This book has helped me add interest (and more fun) to those coloring pages with large, kind of "empty" objects and blah backgrounds without having to use markers, which I have not mastered on coloring book paper...yet! Very happy with this purchase. Review: Fantastic resource! - I have recently started using colored pencils not just for adult coloring books, but also in my mixed media work. This book has been a game changer! It is laid out very nicely with tools and tricks for artists in the front, and then by section for animal fur, skin, plants etc. Each texture detail spells out in 4 basic steps how to achieve realism, and the colored pictures and pencil color suggestions are great! And just like that- Bammm! I’m a better artist!! For someone like me that cannot afford to take multiple art classes, this book is perfect. It’s a great course bundled up in one easy to follow reference book. I have had it only a short time, but find myself using it a lot. One nice thing about this book is the refresher course on color theory, and how something like obtaining a deeper red color is not necessarily done by just layering on more red. I think this book is a very valuable tool for anyone that likes working with colored pencils and thanks to Denise for sharing her knowledge with the rest of us! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #80,973 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #69 in Pencil Drawing | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,771 Reviews | ## Images ![101 Textures in Colored Pencil: Practical step-by-step drawing techniques for rendering a variety of surfaces & textures - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91XrEeKL7KL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Super helpful! *by A***R on January 4, 2024* I'm an adult coloring book junkie, always on the hunt for a way to improve my skill set...no pressure, just like seeing my pages get "better."
