    Excellent colored pencil book!

    I am a traditional artist from the 70s and I am also a Graphic Designer. Color pencils are a less expensive medium, and what is great about this book it has a color wheel right in the front, you don't have to shop around for another one or replace your old one. In addition, the introduction to this book makes it worth purchasing, it starts out with the understanding of color theory and a thorough review of what to look for before starting your project, such as techniques that could be helpful in achieving good results, guided steps, how to sort out details, and great tips from a practicing artist per project page in a bolded box in powered blue. The color of the book is also ensemble from a colored pencil to reflect the pleasant appearance of using colored pencils. Even though graphics has conquered the market, traditional art will always be here to stay. Art starts with a pencil.
