    That is a beautiful gradient. And the technique is very well explained. It's a lot easier to understand and appreciate all the work that goes into the baseball drawing after seeing the first part. Thank you for this clear explanation.

    That was really helpful. Thank you. Can I ask, what's the benefit of layering up the colours as opposed to going in dark to begin with? A total beginners question... Sorry..!!

      No problem at all 😀 The first reason is easy to explain - it's much easier to fix mistakes and make adjustments as you work through the colours. The second reason is a bit more complicated and ultimately comes down to my drawing style. If it was a cartoon style then solid blocks of colour would look right, but when looking for realism you need the depth and detail that can only be achieved through layering. All the transitions you see from the marks on the ball and the shaded areas just wouldn't look right if they suddenly stopped being one colour and started into another. Also I often don't have the exact pencil to match the colour I need, so I'm blending them on the paper to create the right colour. I hope this helps!

      100 percent. Any colored pencil can be used on it. Toned paper is the best for highlights!

    Why is it necessary to build up the layers slowly if you’re going to be burnishing on the last layer? Could you not just start there? Genuine question (not a criticism) Im a newbie and never used coloured pencils.

    • @GemmaChambersArt
      @GemmaChambersArt  2 роки тому +3

      There's a few reasons really. There's way more tolerance for mistakes doing it this way, but more than anything you can't build up all the gradients, colour transitions and details if you go in full force burnishing from the start. All those areas of dirt on the baseball and the transitions from brown/grey in the shadows to cream/off white in the highlights would be single blocks of colour. I don't think I could add any depth beyond a purely 2D drawing without the layers.
