Good Colored Pencils

9 messages · last activity 2/22/2006

This may sound stupid but dont really care, your the professionals and would love your opinions. Ive been working on my art and want to know what name brand is good for colored pencils. I want to be able to kind of blend some of my work, but all i have laying around is my sons crayola, lol. I got a Micheal's up here so thats about all i have for any kind of art stores in this area at the moment. As in blend i mean to put my finger and spread the color so it lightens in places like it does when i use my drawing or charcoal pencils.
Why don't you ask taz?
LOL..OK!
The best, hands down, are Prismacolor!!
For tips on colored pencils go to www.leehammond.com...Lee is the BEST and there are great tips on what to use...She also gives art lessons in the kansas city area ...all my artists went to her workshops and learned a LOT!! BTW I use prismacolors and Lyras..Taz
Just use Crayola! lol
haha yeah crayola top notch..sorry got three kids i buy for them before me.
i need some art lessons here in the mississippi area but Im not finding anything here except for art classes for seniors which i dont think i qualify for just yet : )
www.leehammond.com for the best colored pencil artist anywhere...And an extreme hottie! (sorry Lee I can't help it ...I wanna have your babies!) T
