THE BASICS: HIGHLIGHTS, SHADING & SHADOWS | Crayola Colored Pencils | Adult Coloring for Beginners

In this video, we will go back to the basics. This video is all about Highlights, Shading, & Shadows. I will be using Crayola colored pencils to show you that you don't need expensive pencils to create beautiful coloring pages. I'll share with you how I add lots of extra depth and dimension so that the objects on my coloring pages really "POP" and stand out. I'll share why I choose the colors I do, and even bring out the color wheel so that you have a better understanding of color choices. This video is part of my Adult Coloring for Beginners Series.

I love the combos you make! I have many sets of colored pencils but the child in me still loves my Crayolas.

With so much green just a touch of red on dots and perhaps antennae would give more pop. Orange and blue yellow and violet all do the same. Works like Van Gough's Sunflowers. That is real contrasting colours.

Pamela I have the 100 set. They are beautiful but, they cause my hands to ache. My joints hurt for days afterwards. I love watching you create such masterpieces with them. The arthritis just won't let me use them. I'm limited on this. The prismacolor is OK because they lay down so easy. Have fun.

I'm still interested in the color family chart :)

And woof, I have been playing with my crayolas pretty much exclusively for a couple of weeks. Love 'em, but I would not use them at all without an electric sharpener. My LORD the wood could be used to chop down other trees to make more pencils!

I love my Crayolas too. I've used Crayola colored pencils since I was a child, and I still love them now. I agree with you about the colors included in this set. Some of them are so different from anything else that I've used. Wow! I have a Jarlink sharpener too. It seems to work really well with any of my colored pencils. Thanks for sharing this video, Pamela. Your butterfly is beautiful! I love the colors that you used.

Thank you for this video. It was just the right length of time giving us simple guidelines. Helping colorist feel as if they can create a lovely page without feeling overwhelmed which makes one hesitate to try and takes the fun out of coloring.

Thanks for this video. I purchased two boxes of Crayola Pencils, one for my daughter and one for me. The colors you chose for the butterfly are so beautiful together! The butterfly is stunning...I was surprised how just by placing the colors where you did, and blending them together, made such a gorgeous butterfly. I am interested in seeing these pencils in your perfect color family order and more Crayola combinations.

This was SO much fun!!! It’s 1:45 am and I’m here coloring away lol. I am going to finish up and post my butterfly. I can’t believe how well these inexpensive Crayola pencils did! Thanks Pamela!

[angelareeves]

I have been watching this over again. Could you post more?

[tabbylynn]

I love listening to your thought process! It helps me so very much to understand why you pick what colors you do. Thank you so much for this. Also, congrats on your son I know you must be so very proud.

[ashleighmccallum]

[catrena]

Pamela thank you so much for this tutorial it's absolutely amazing! The colors are so wonderful and this butterfly look amazing. Thank you very much for sharing and happy coloring.

[deepowers]

Beautiful job, Pamela. I would like to see the Crayola 120 pencil set in color family order, please. I don't have any color theory knowledge, so always need help with this.

[wanderingstar]

It’s wonderful to view a video using Crayola and the video creator is genuinely happy using them. Crayola is an affordable option that gives beautiful results in a price range that makes creating inclusive for many versus high priced supplies that can lead to many being excluded.I love my Crayola. The butterfly 🦋 is beautiful.

Your videos are the most informative for beginners like me. You are a really good teacher and have really helped me out thank-you 😊

[ripley]

Oh boy, I have the Crayolas 100 I MUST go get the 120 set after watching you do such beautiful creations! You've sooo inspired me, thank you for humbly sharing your amazing talent!

Great video I often find I like to use crayola pencils and find that they are very good with practice.And I love tgathey keep a sharp point without continuous sharping.I have the new colors but a family member gave me some very old crayola and there is some very differ colors .I think its great that you did this video so that other people can see what can be done with just crayola.
