What is the proper color pencil technique?

The proper color pencil technique involves layering and blending to achieve depth and vibrancy. Start by applying light pressure to build a base layer, then gradually add more layers for intensity, using varied strokes like circular or directional to create texture. Blending can be enhanced with a colorless blender or by lightly overlapping colors. Finally, use a sharp pencil for fine details and highlights to bring your artwork to life.
