✨ Pro Coloring Tips
- Gradient Shading: Achieve depth on clothing and hair by starting with light shades and gradually adding darker tones in areas of shadow. This creates a realistic volume effect. For example, use #A9C4BC as a base and slowly blend in #7B9A92 for the dress's folds.
- Pattern Play: Enhance the decorative patterns by using contrasting colors or varying intensities within the same color family to make them stand out. Consider using gel pens for finer details within the patterns.
- Blended Backgrounds: Create a soft and harmonious backdrop by using blending tools or cotton swabs to seamlessly merge colors in the circular frame, allowing the family to be the focal point. Pastel crayons or watercolor pencils can be excellent for achieving soft background washes.
- Recommended Tools: Prismacolor pencils for blending, Faber-Castell Polychromos for layering, Sakura Gelly Roll pens for highlights, blending stumps, and cotton swabs for smooth gradients.
