Hello. You can use warm colors to indicate shadows and highlights as well. If you want to increase the contrast, you may choose use complements in the highlights and shadows. In this case one color would warm and the other cool, ex. blue and orange. (I usually do use blue when creating shadow, but I didn't in this video)

This was so helpful! Especially the leaves as I'm working on a rose right now as well! I would have never thought to use blue as a shadow. Thank yoh

You make drawing a rose look so easy. I'm taking a 6 day trip to GA & am thinking of bringing watercolor pencils to draw landscape paintings. Your videos are really great using this painting media. Thank you.

I have been drawing flowers for a while...but never thought of the nature of line as I applied the color! Thank you. It will help me achieve a more believable image.

Your rose looks almost to good to be real. It looks like one of those things in a dream that you know is fake, but want it so badly to be real. Great job.

I've never drawn with color before. I always felt the way I did it ruined the art. Stuck to black and white for years. But I just ordered a full set of colored pencils. You've inspired me.

out of all people i seen drawn a realistic rose ,, yours is the best one thaT ive seen.

That's the nature of the beast. The softness of the pencil creates the nice layering effect, but also leads to breaking.

Beautiful demo. I'm inspired.

One last point of fact...I am a disabled Veteran and am trying to get back into pastels and color abstractions based on Fractals, and Color theory techniques. I was awarded employee of the quarter at Boeing, from among 110 other illustrators, for my improvement of the 737 Maintenance Program Graphics. I received letters from around the world thanking me for this project and it's improvement I have over 10,000 hours in art, and as a Teacher have taught 18k students how to do Calligraphy

preaty nice ,,, ..i learnd when useing color pencil, to never us black for darker value,, and that the best way was to use brown , blue ect,....

It is obvious you are no ordinary human. You are a master

amazing work!

I just finished a drawing a rose just like this in a project im doing for a friend I love doing roses because they come out so well in colored pencil.

I am using Prismacolor Pencils and I am working on brown textured paper. I'll be doing a review of Prismacolor pencils, hopefully this weekend.

The Highlights are usually a lighter color of the base. So in this case it would probably be more of a lighter red or pink for the highlights or just go white if you want to.

so beautiful art work

I have the 150 pack and do have a small amount of breakage. I read somewhere a tip about putting the broken pencil in the microwave for only 5 seconds. Only do one pencil at a time also. I tried it and it works. Not always on the top broken piece though. If you microwave it longer than 5 seconds, bad things happen to your pencils. The microwave warms the wax just enough to allow the wax in the leads to reseal themselves together.

I wish I could draw like that!

That's awesome u should show how to draw the petals n centre.

Love this thank you

I love your rose

In this drawing, I'm using brown textured paper. The greater the tooth (texture) of the paper, the more the texture will play into the finished drawing.

what a beauty of art you do! Congratulations!

You're great..I'm so glad you're teaching us...love Marcia in Modesto

Amazing! Looks like a real rose.

Wow..that's super! Easy to learn and looks fabulous!

Terrific explanation. Many thanks.

Great work.I`m also painting with Prisma Colors.These are the best color pencils in my opinion.

Black makes a really dark out line that's why brown is better

Amazing

hello I am not totally sure on this I have been working on colored pencil technics for a while but when I do it I burnish very hard but before I do my final color I like to put all the other colors needed in it like black brown are what ever you are using, I am not to sure on how to answer your question for his video but I thought I would try to help a small portion.

Awesome results! ! The rose is very realistic~

Thank you so much for the info. I will try it.

Thats amazing

Gorgeous

Wonderful lesson

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you want "cool" highlights and shadows because the main color of the rose is "warm?" I'm still working on my understanding of color theory....

You draw better then all of them good drawer🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷💐💐👍

Gorgeous! Thank you for all your helpful hints!

how do you know what colors to do. For example to use a brown instead of a dark red for the shadows? What should I use if I want to create a shadow if the main color is blue.

Wonderful lesson !!! Amazing..Thank you so much for sharing and teaching

That was wonderful

Have you tried baking your prismas? I've read on several blogs that pencil artists have used an oven to fuse the cores back together. They are wax-based....

One word: beautiful! ♥

Beautiful ❤

Wow that was amazing nd pretty beatiful

perfect thanks!

Wow

Beautiful

Ayo, I was one when this was posted

You make it look so easy :)

What can I say!! Iwant to learn how to do it. Its a beauty..:)

Fine Art. These are painted with normal pencils and not Prismacolor or something like that.

You sound like mark crilley

amazing 💗💗💗💗

Lovely, thanks for sharing.

Great tutorial, love your videos, Thank you for posting.

Which color pencil is better for beginners? *Prismacolor or Faber Castel*?

Awesome!

Are you suppose to draw the colors light to dark or dark to light with color pencils?

I'm a little nervous about using colored pencils after reading that they break easily by some of your viewers. How can I sharpen them without a lot of breakage?

gorgeous :)

Wow this is amazing

So beautiful .. Keep it

Ilovedtheselessons!

😍👍Good

youutubestinks It also takes hours. This would be a movie if he did it real time.

Hi. I really love you're drawing and can you please tell me what kind of papaer do you use and what coloredbpencil do you uses? I just wanna know because i really love to draw but my colors made my drawing worse..... so thank you 😊

Thanks for the tutorial and reminders on some things. I also wondered if you are using a hot press smooth paper or one with more tooth.

hard to follow but fun to learn

nyc colours which brand colour u are using

Nice tutorial. Thanks for posting.

What colours do i need to follow

What colors are you using on the red rose

I don't do good with color... any tips?

Hi , Can I use faber castell polycromos? Is equal? Please tell me

good

Super

will it work on white paper?

Thank You for this art tutorial site! I am 63 and a retired Illustrator from the Boeing Airplane Co. in Seattle, WA. I am subscribed, but don't know how to get to the actual site where I can use the pull-downs and get to work. Also, I am not a computer Geek, and do not have a Blog, a Blackberry, or and I-Pad. As a matter of fact, I don't even know how to make and send a video to save my life! I would like to send you or the site, stills of my work! Do you have a way I can do this?

Thanks for the tutorial! I drew a rose just like yours😁

Nice drawing.......

I'm sorry I know this is an older video, but I'm extremely curious how hard you're pressing your pencils. I tend to draw too hard. Are you drawing really lightly over every layer? Is the end result smooth as if a lot of layers, or still sort of transparent?

What can I say------WOW

Gran trabajo! :) Gracias por subir esto! y compartirlo!

It is difficult but i will try :p .. ThanX ;)

😊😊😊😊💗foarte frumos

I think he should have continued with the white colour pencil

What kind of paper do you use?

How do you keep your prismas from breaking? I have a 72 pack but every time I try to sharpen them the lead breaks easily, or i get a nice point, please help?

what's the name of the paper thing????

With what pencil paint?

ยอดเยี่ยม

e error notice how the people not making videos are so much better artists than the people who actually make the videos?

Wow! those pencils are quite expensive for an art student such as myself... i think i'll start to save up :)

perfeito!

how do you know where to add the shadows
