I’m mostly a watercolor and ink artist but I’ve been using colored pencils in my paintings as well! Your colored pencils get me excited to use mine to try these kind of arts!
Same. I started using colored pencil when I watched her crayon pencil video and I love it. I used colored pencil all the time now. I couldn't afford to buy polychromos or prismacolor yet, I'm using fabercastell classic for now. It's still good enough for practice. And the video like this one really helps a lot too, for my muse and for practicing :)))))) Also, this camera angle is the best because I can see the whole process clearly :))
Oh my, oh my.........I could watch you colour all day. The way you mix your colours. You are a natural! Thanks ever so much for sharing Chris. Stay safe and well xx
Pinks tend to be more fugitive, especially bright pinks, which is probably why Faber Castell focus more on lightfast pigments over bright colour. Dye based colours are always more bright but are fujitive. You can always add in your prisma pinks if you wanted to.
Really impressed with your bold color choices, especially in the hair, it feels so rich and vibrant. Also your gentle layering of colors almost feels like you’re working with oils on those highly rendered areas, again really enjoyable to watch😁
Love your portraits! The way you analyse during drawing is very helpful and helped me a lot to understand how to structure my own process ^_^ Thank you for sharing your art and knowledge ❤️
Please post more :( there’s only you and one other UA-camr i care to watch. I find you so inspirational-your faces are so unique and cute i can’t get enough!!
watching your process and how you progress with your drawings and your art in general is so inspiring for me!!! i'm super precious with my sketches, i'm so afraid of messing everything up that i rarely improve in areas i struggle with. the way you seem so unafraid with your marks gives me courage ;w;
I'm precious with my sketches too, actually looking back I'm pleasantly surprised I managed to get the results I did lol so you just gotta try sometimes and see what happens!! :)
I wonder if you'd enjoy adding *gamsol or odourless mineral spirits, it dissolves the oil of the pencil and lets the colours flow. can brighten the colours and make painterly effects. *thank you for the correction, Alisa 👍
The issue with using baby oil is that it messes with the lightfastness of the pencils, that's why colored pencil artists use either Gamsol or Odorless mineral spirits. Both of these options are pretty cheap too.
Drawing from imagination on screen is definitely hard to do, so I don't think it's something on my radar at the moment but if I ever get more comfortable with it, maybe! thanks Mary!
Love this a lot! You inspired me fromthe start to get some colored pencils and start coloring. It's not easy but it's always a pleasure to watch you do your thing, Chris! I admire you so much as an artist
Its worthwhile investing in a few caran dache luminance pencils to use alongside the polychromos, they work really well together. I use the luminance over the polychromos to flatten the texture. But that might not be your desired effect because i do hyper realism.
@@ChrisHongArt thank you for blessing us with your magic ;) I got really inspired by your drawing today. I had a dream a while ago of a girl with cherry red hair and a green hood/cape running through a busy market at night. The hood you drew reminded me of that. I might try to paint my dream some time :)
Chris, I’m always so amazed at how meticulous you are in your art - you have a style that is so uniquely yours you’d be able to spot it anywhere. I have a couple thoughts about polychromos pencils (because they’re my absolute fav!): - They do actually erase reasonably well, so you can tone back or redo things you’re not crazy about. (They are of course, pencil crayons, so I don’t think that you’d get the page perfectly clean, but some erasing works). - my all-time favorite neutral colour is caput mortem. It’s the prefect colour for outlining a sketch. I probably use it way too much because i find purposes for it in everything. Lol - earth green is a wonderful colour to shade with - totally worth a try! ❤️
Oo I'll have to look for that colour! I've still yet to get familiar with the names, probably because I don't really check for the names as I work 😅 thanks Kristy!🧡
Chris Hong Art My absolute pleasure. The DesSerres at St Laurent Shopping Center carries all of the colours piecemeal, so you can buy them one-by-one in the colours you want to try most. And they’ve got a great website too - for these quarantine-y days.
You did amazing towards the end as you were getting used to them..I was a pencil colourist on several teams and I used to take 6/8 hrs to colour a piece like this. I did it for 10 yrs and now I can make mine look like they are painted..no pencil marks at all.You can rub the surface coat off..I have changed skin colour and hair colour that way ..Surprising what you can do with pencils they are like magic sticks ..Most important thing is to keep the pencils sharp ..I love this drawing she’s beautiful 🥰
Thank you for sharing your process in "real time". really enjoyed this video. This caracter is awesome! And yes, it can be erase if you don't press too much or if te paper is not saturated :-)
Hi! I just wanted to say thank you! I really enjoyed the whole video, i like to drawing while watching your videos. Your pencil coloring ones really made me look at colors differently and step out of my comfort zone. Greatful.
This was such a great video! Beautiful artwork and the way you take us through your process was also so incredibly helpful and generous of you! You’re a brilliant artist and a brilliant teacher. Thank you :)
do you have a certain sharpener you use for your colored pencils? i have prismacolor pencils with no good sharpeners. i love the softness and sharpness of your art you create, and i want to emulate that as best i can.
it really depends on what colours you tend to gravitate towards.. I would compare the available colours between the two sets and see if the 60 has enough of what you think you'll use :O for me personally though, I didn't even consider the smaller sets since I'm of the opinion that with colour pencils, the more the merrier! since it's not like watercolours or other tube paints where you can mix most colours together. It's just a lot more convenient to have a variety of colours available, without having to mix them :) so if you can afford it, I'd suggest the 120!
crayola might put you off of using colour pencils XD maybe try the prismacolour scholar set? they're super inexpensive and I find them pretty decent to use :D if you're from the US I heard Blick studio pencils are also pretty great for the price
interesting, since I thought it had good coverage :O but maybe what you've tried is better! Also may be that I don't feel the need to cover every white space of the paper ^^
You have a great sense of choosing colour ...like I mean the balance...it's kinda like nothing is overwhelming...you are great
thanks so much! Trust me, it's not always a desirable outcome XD but I like how this one turned out!
I agree. She uses some interesting combinations.

aw I'm so happy to hear that, Elena! It's not always easy to analyze what I'm doing in that moment but I will keep trying if it helps! 😘
Chris Hong Art yes, it definitely helps :D I can imagine how difficult it is to transform intuitive process in to words
Chris,your colouring style is beautiful And unique!🥰
Honestly I really love how you use colored pencils in your art because it’s a lot less blending and just more simple.
Blessed with a video XD Went to watch while I draw mushrooms
Felix omg im drawing shrooms too rn. Im drawing shrooms with legs
Aaw cute I need to draw those as well!!
shroom party!🍄🍄🍄
@@ChrisHongArt omg ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love your art style so much! I love that you don’t swatch your supplies and just go for it !
mostly due to laziness, but thank you!🧡
Your videos reegined my love with colored pencilss! Im so much happier drawing and seeing you draww
Please post more :( there’s only you and one other UA-camr i care to watch. I find you so inspirational-your faces are so unique and cute i can’t get enough!!
this is lovely and Inspiring!, may I follow your step for my art to ? with credits of course, I want to practicing and use my pencil color to
of course! I do studies of other artists all the time to glean from them; it's a really great way to learn! :)
Chris Hong Art YAY CONSENT!
Chris Hong Art yeaaay thank you so much!
Hi Archie!! I love your comic, Eggnoid so much❤
@@Fluorite-Fox thank you so much! ❤️
So I bought myself the 24 col set after watching the part 1 video and I'm in love
These colored pencils are my favorite. I love using them so much I filled a sketchbook with drawings colored with them, copic markers, and nu pastels
Your colouring and drawingstyle is super intresting and unique! I love how u choose the colours
nice sketch n colors used
I've just picked these pencils up and I'm so excited to try them out. Love your art style!

That's it, you inspired me to give my neglected colored pencils another try. I love your process!
Hey Chris! Love your art so much. I love how you draw your characters too. Would you ever do a video on how you draw your characters???
Drawing from imagination on screen is definitely hard to do, so I don't think it's something on my radar at the moment but if I ever get more comfortable with it, maybe! thanks Mary!

This colour pencil can be erased!! I don’t know about big area, I use eraser for highlights sometimes. you should try it on another paper😆😆
Also the paper blend stick blends it well :) looks more smooth.
yeah I noticed some of the colours erase pretty well! :D But some of them are so strongly staining that there's no hope lol
Darn, you're early

I love ur drawings!!!! 😚😚😚
I love your drawing style so much! Your drawings are all so magical🦋
Amazing. You have so much patient to draw using that color pencil. 😅
Wow, you're so talented !! This drawing is perfect! Congratulations!👏👏😍
Would love to see a Red Riding hood watercolor/gouache from you 😍😄
You are a wonderful Artist ❤️❤️❤️
Hi, Chris... just a suggestion, you can use a kneaded eraser to pull up a bit of color if you put down too much. :)
Thanks for the helpful tip, I’ll try it out
I loved the music
And of course this drawing was AMAZING
I wish i was as talent as you lol 💕
glad you liked the music, I'm pretty picky with the music I choose to put in these videos! XD
You are a good at art my friend 👍 👍
You can erase colored pencils . Use regular erasers or electric erasers.
These are aaamazing (as always). I hope you keep using them more in the future!,❤
This is amazingg !💜
I’m so jealous and inspired at the same time like *HOWWWWWWW* ??? 🤩👺🥺😤😍☠️
And she even takes time to swatch every single color to get it right 😭😭😭
Wouaah ! Magnifique ! Je vous regarde de France , je ne parle pas anglais.Congratulations 👍🤗🥰
Coooooool!
I just love your Style it is so charming!
I love your drawings! I just join your class in skillshare ❤️
I love this so much!!!!
You could use some white guache for adding highlights on her hair, eyes and nose.
What a beauty
Do you have a tutorial on how to use color pencils in general??
Wow amazing 🥰
Very nice friend.great job😘😘....
So cute. Reminds me of Vanellope ( im not sure of spelling😆) in Wreck It Ralph.
Before you colored the sketch, the character kinda looks like hermione granger from harry potter (because the hood kinda blends in with the hair)
I’ve been learning abt color theory since I was young but I still find it hard to mix colors to make skin tone effects 😭
Beautiful pencil sedding ✏️✏️✏️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍
Perfect 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Lol I think you’ve convinced me to buy a set! Beautiful work as always. Do you mind sharing what you use to record your videos?
what kind of paper is it? looks pretty cool
do you have a certain sharpener you use for your colored pencils? i have prismacolor pencils with no good sharpeners. i love the softness and sharpness of your art you create, and i want to emulate that as best i can.
I do love you, best of the best 🥰

Wish polychromo's were a lil cheaper, seems so nice to work with.
I love how you draw faces, do you have a tutorial video. I guess I could just look on your page😂
i clicked so fast
What the name of your color..?
It really fantastic!💙
nice ❤️
Where did you buy the colors, give me the link?
You can probably find them on amazon
cool
You need to make a sketch tutorial
That drawing looks like me
But I don’t have bangs anymore😂
Great character, but the process looks like a really hard work.
for drawing with color pencils, can crayolas color pencils be ok? (sorry, broke artist)
crayola might put you off of using colour pencils XD maybe try the prismacolour scholar set? they're super inexpensive and I find them pretty decent to use :D if you're from the US I heard Blick studio pencils are also pretty great for the price
@@ChrisHongArt OH right lol Crayola is wayyy too cheap. Thanks, I'll make sure to check them out.
~(^_^ )~
no tengo la menor idea de lo que dice pero quiero pintar así!
Hi how hard/ frustrating are the trays to take them in or out?
why are the pencils so expensive ?
Wow, you're so cool.~~♡★☆♡♥♥
What color name please!
what paper?
Your charachters look a bit like the candy children , venelope von schwetz from wreck it ralph
Omg they do!!!
It kinda looks like vanellope from Wreck it Ralph a little red riding hood
that cadmium Gelb looks so juicy on your table
Hoodwinked vibes
Omg yes!!!!!! I loved those two movies as a little child. Brings back good memories. That movie taught me that you don’t let squirrels drink coffee ☕️
Colour pencils are horror to me 😂 but I love using watercolour
FIRST
I am not so impressed, a lot of paper showing throught! Looks like it doesnt have a good coverage.
interesting, since I thought it had good coverage :O but maybe what you've tried is better! Also may be that I don't feel the need to cover every white space of the paper ^^
Comrade Morlac I mean, it is just a colored sketch. Or that’s the effect I see.
