Colored-Pencil Drawing Tips and Tricks for Beginners
7) Keep pencil strokes consistent in both pressure and direction when filling an area with color.
8) Use drawing paper from the art store for your colored pencil projects. The heavier weight of this paper will allow you to build up layers of color without tearing the paper.
9) Roll your pencil in your hand every few strokes for a new sharp pencil point.
10) Cover your mistakes by coloring over them with a white colored pencil.
