Colored Pencil Art

Colored pencil artist Jennifer Morrison creates stunning botanical art and teaches her methods in online classes. One of the core techniques she teaches is the spectacular base layer, which she achieves by laying down colored pencil pigment, and then applying a tiny bit of NOOD paint thinner with a stiff-bristled brush.

The paint thinner breaks down the binders, and the pigment blooms into smooth, blended color, providing a luminous base to which she can add more layers or detail.

See how it works.
