I've coloring for about 5 years now and I'm just learning that blending goes from dark to light while layering goes from light to dark but seeing this side by side has just blown me away! Thanks, sweet friend and teacher!

I don't consider myself a beginner colorists but I love learning everyday. The skin tones in Hanna Karlzon's book is flawless. I know you probably have a video on it with music but I'd love to hear your ideas as you're doing it. Easier said than done because all I'm doing is watching and listening not talking and trying to concentrate on laying the color down or worrying if what I'm doing is on camera etc etc. Your job is not easy but I can tell you love it. I love watching but when it's music I just fast forward. Thank you so much Karen for all you do!

Ive been colouring for about 10years and ive used many different types of pencils, my current favourite are from Castle Arts UK, i have the Gold version and they are oil based, and i simply adore them, i can layer and blend with them, they give a great point but arent too hard, im especially addicted to using them in my Kerby Rosanes books, the details look amazing with the pencils
