PORTRAITS BY SARAH JESS

Colored Pencil Portraits
Vibrant, yet realistic colored pencil portraits are sure to add a smile and splash of color to any room in the house! Though crafted from primarily Prismacolor and Caran d'Ache colored pencils, these drawings are often mistaken for paintings due to a drawing technique known as burnishing. The use of this type of blending results in an overall smoother completed work that is unlike basic pencil layering styles which appear more sketchy.
