A new challenge starts today at Morgan's Art World Challenge Blog. I chose the image Magical Mermaid. I colored the image with Prismacolor pencils, which reminded me of why I stopped using the. They do have the best color range around for pencils. I believe I have 150 with the newest colors added. Their downfall is how easily they break when sharpening. Almost every time I sharpen one the point falls out. I like to have my pencils very sharp to work with and I have such a difficult time getting them sharp without breaking. Two of my other three sets hold a point extremely well, but have no where near the color range. I also used a white pen marker to color in the white on the waves and the beads or flowers (whatever they are) on her headpiece. This was my first try at coloring water. I think I will give it another try soon. They netting I found at Hobby Lobby a few tears ago. It seems to go well with mermaid pictures.
