Ok book about colored pencil techniques.I found the demonstration sections more interesting in the basic technique sections near the beginning, but I merely skimmed the last few chapters, which covered advanced tips and tricks with extra focus on portraiture (the author's specialty and not a particular interest of mine).

Beautiful artwork! The author is an accomplished artist.

This does not interest me. I DID like the dwg of spools of colored ribbons like you would find in a fabric store on p.75.
I might want to draw that subject.

Ok but there are better books which are easier to follow
