How to Use WATERCOLOUR PENCILS | Blue Butterfly Tutorial

We're using something different today and giving the Albrecht Durer Watercolour pencils a try! Learn how to use watercolour pencils to create this simple yet effective blue butterfly drawing.

Learn some key elements of layering watercolour pencils, blending your watercolour pencils and then re-applying to get a smooth, painterly look to your drawing. Watercolour pencils are so nice to use as a medium and can produce some quick results. This butterfly took me just over 1 1/2 hours from start to finish (not including drying time) 😁😁

This is possibly the best tutorial I've seen for watercolor pencils. I've been trying to master them for a couple years, and how you've explained the process makes more sense than anything I've seen. Thank you.
