Drawing Realistic Colored Pencil Art - Prismacolor

A parrot is featured in this video, a great bird to practice with. I’m not a super realistic drawer.. I’m like in between fun - realistic. I used Prismacolor colored pencil. The paper is matte board. Heres a few tips... White should never completely be white... add all sorts of colors in with the white to make the white more realistic (I know it sounds crazy but look at the finished piece and look at the white part of the parrot see all the colors?!) The most important thing for making realistic colored pencil art is your lights and darks so it gives your drawing depth. Want more tutorials? Subscribe and view my other videos.
