This is the third post in the series of my progressive application of a color pencil technique. Scroll down to the first post to see how the picture started and progresses, its interesting although I am just really beginning in colored pencils. Here is Nathan's picture finished. I don't like the skin tones at all so I will do another one but thought I would share in the learning process. I will have to change computers to post the photo I took and used as a reference. He really was trying to eat that big green plastic egg!

STUNNING!!! What a terrific eye and talent you have!! GORGEOUS!
I am completely blown away by this - it's terrific! I can't believe you aren't happy with it. It's hard to believe you've not been using pencil for years. Well done!
Amazing and thank you for sharing your technique as well. I find it fascinating to watch a drawing evolve!
Desiree, thanks for sharing your step by step process. I don't see anything wrong with the finished product. It's beautiful and your grandson is darling.
Fantastic! You say you are really just starting with these pencils - I suggest you keep going. Your work is fantastic.
wow...great job!!!
this is just so lovely!!!
the expression is adorable!
Thanks everyone for your kind words. I am so excited to start it again and try it without the underpainting. It will be quite the learning experience. I love the fact that I scanned the progression on this piece, even looking at the pictures myself helps me to continue to see things that I did along the way, good or bad. You might want to try it on your next piece too! And share it with all of us of course.
that really is a great idea to capture the progress of a piece! I like the undertones you did on this one.
Very nicely done
Wonderful wonderful wonderful!
This is a fantastic drawing of your (grand?)child!
Absolutely wonderful! And I love that you gave the step by step progress!! Beautiful and so descriptive of a child.
