Colored Pencil Portraits Step by Step

Portraits not only capture a likeness, but offer for generations to come a glimpse into the subject's like. Sounds like quite a challenge. But with Ann Kullberg's help, it's not as difficult as you might think to create life like colored pencil portraits. Using her own beautiful portraiture for instruction and inspiration, Kullberg walks you thought the process step by step-from basic information about materials and techniques to two demonstrations that show how complete portraits come together from beginning to end. You'll also find Kullberg's secrets for making your portrait come alive, along with 17 mini-demos that make it easy to paint realistic features, hair and clothing. Paperback. 11 in. x 8 1/2 in. 128 pages. North Light Books, 1999. By Ann Kullberg. ISBN 1581806396
