Here are some more examples of the power of colored pencils in portrait drawing. The ability to build up transparent layers in a precise formula is what allows such vivid colors from such light strokes of pencil.

Close up to the right

This is a comission. I used a pre colored Canson Paper to add richness and sophistication to this piece. The piece is an exprssion of ownership and comfort within ones body. 

Original drawing: Sold
Print Price: $150

Close up of the face shows the multiple effects of color the layering brings out.  This drawing took 170 hours to complete.
Now this monochromatic piece was done on black Canson paper with 10 diffrent shades of blue colored pencil. In this style all the normally light areas are dark and all the dark light, like a negative. this piece took about 35 hours to create and I left the black negative space to left Billy Watson to give then sense of something impending. 

Original Drawing: $1000
Print Price: $150
