Realistic Portraits in Colored Pencil Learn to draw lifelike portraits in vibrant colored pencil by Karen Hull is a book I requested from NetGalley and the review is voluntary.This book is amazing! It starts out showing the reader the tools needed and techniques used. It then goes into step by step instructions for several pieces of art with the focus on different aspects. There are clear close up pictures for each step! It probably isn't for the very beginner but it is excellent for intermediate level for sure! I have it on my wish list!
