Pencils: Karismacolour

Paper: Drafting film

I could not resist this young Afghan hound, he had such a happy expression on his face that I just had to draw him. I loved working on the hair and seeing the different colours in amongst the strands.

 I used drafting film for this drawing. I find I can achieve beautifully rich, velvety colours on this, I think it makes a wonderful support for coloured pencils. The pencils I used were a selection of Karismacolour in browns, ochres and greys, with purple and blues and pinks as well as black and white.
