TAILIEUCHUNG - Working on Colored Papers

Concept Much of my colored pencil drawing in recent years has been on mediumvalue colored papers such as browns, greys, and lavender. On medium-value paper, I can work with both light and dark pencils. It is exciting to see the effect of the light colors and whites contrasting on the dark papers. The dark papers also make it easier to achieve strong darks. This is a time-honored, traditional technique. Masters of drawing such as Leonardo da Vinci have worked on medium-value toned papers since the Renaissance. . | Working on Colored Papers Concept Much of my colored pencil drawing in recent years has been on mediumvalue colored papers such as browns greys and lavender.

It needs to be protected with light-filtering plexiglass or conservation-quality glass. Generally I have used Sanford Prismacolor pencils. The light-fastness issue has however led me to explore other brands of pencils. I have recently started to enjoy using Lyra Rembrandt Polycolor Pablo Caran d Ache and Design Spectracolor brands. The Colored Pencil Society is a good source of information about the issue of light-fastness.
