This time I used the primary colors. For those who don't know, the primary colors are red, yellow, and blue. You can mix most colors with these three alone, which is why I thought this color challenge would be easy. It wasn't XD

Getting the brown tones was confusing for me, because you have to slowly layer the colors, or it'll just look like a scribble of the primaries. I also just kept seeing the primaries just laying on each other, before taking a step back (Does that make sense? Lol). Getting green was a bit difficult too at first, but only because I wanted more yellowish greens, and it was easier to get blueish greens from the blue and yellow I was using.

Shading was a tad more complicated, because I had to figure out how much pigments to layer for both shading *and* mixing a color.

On the bright side, I realized I can mix certain shades of colors that my packet pencil doesn't have. Like the green on the grass, and the purplish brown in the fairy's hair. And the purplish grey on her wings. They're nice colors :3

Overall, I like how the drawing turned out, and I was pretty fun. Might do this again sometime.

Materials Used:

Faber-Castell Colored Pencils

Faber-Castell Pitt Artist Pens
