Dear Kirsty, I ❤️ all your art, you are an amazing artist 👩🎨 Thank you for sharing these tutorials. I’ve loved art in any way shape or form all my life. I have started back painting with watercolour since this depressing COVID-19 has taken over our lives, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel now 😊 🙏🏼 Take care.
Definitely had some ah ha moments from this video. Some of this techniques I already employ and love! Gods I couldn't live without my brushes and Exacto , but yes I definitely learned things from this Thank You!!!
Yes! As a watercolor artist - a lot of us prefer certain brands of "Blue Tack" type stuff. We also use Mr. Clean magic erasers for different applications.
Really! When I was younger I used to always break up my eraser by rubbing it on paper and then I get the little bits and when I mix them up they’re like kneaded erasers.
@ANVESHA GUPTA thanks! Our oven just broke and that means no cake, but I would love to spend time with my family and celebrate my birthday with them! :)
Thank you so much for this video! I rarely comment on TH-cam but I had to thank you for those videos, as I personally only watched two so far and I have already learned so much! I think the whiskers hack, and overall the knife hack are my favourites. I use pencils for my realistic portraits so all of those hacks will definitely come in handy. I always had a difficulty drawing those little stray hairs that make the whole drawing far more realistic so I'll try them out. I'm definitely subscribed and can't wait to see more of your videos 😊
My favorite was mixing different mediums for large areas. just joined Art Tutor and absolutely love your courses, very clear and easy to follow, did not cost much at all, worth every penny :) Thank you Kirsty
Yes Kris, please make a Part 2 of this hack vid. My favorite hack was how to hold your pencil towards the end; basic but so noteworthy. While my second fav hacks were the transparent tape usages: to create whiskers/ images and to lift colored pencils... Definitely safer than the exacto blade. TFS!😘👍🏾
Really informative list, thank you , Kirsty. I will begin using some of them immediately. One recommendation I have is to SKETCH with a color pencil instead of a graphite pencil to avoid dark pencil lines altogether
I don't do much with my colored pencils, but I still love to come back to them for the pure joy of coloring. These tips are really helpful, even for amateur not-artist folks like me. Thank you.
Draw the stick man. Then again. Then add details. Then make lots of very very shitty art until it gets to mediocre. Then make lots of mediocre art until it gets good. That's it.
Beautiful teaching . So sweet . The way you talk two thumbs up. Soft & quick very decent .... Some of girls I know talk like 10 row neighbours awaken from sudden sleep . Tq for teaching sis.
Hey Kirsty. As always a video with super content 💪. Really helpfull 👍. Your sketchbook drawings also look amazing. What about doing a video with a sketchbook tour? Would love to see more drawings! Yours sincerly Lars (long time fan 🤘).
for an easier pencil extender, most people have these but they're cheap you can get Crayola markers and take out the tip put a piece of tape on your pencil and there you have an easy homemade pencil extender
I love your tip 12. I work in acrylics a lot and I buy large containers of the 5 basic colors in the 2 color wheels along with black, white, and pearl medium( for silver, gold, etc.). The only colors I can't make with these are neons/day glow (although my cyan/yellow green and magenta/yellow orange can be pretty obnoxiously bright) Pencils are pretty much the same. I really do encourage people to use both the standard red/blue/yellow color wheel AND the printers color wheel of cyan, magenta, yellow.(not necessarily in the same work) it's always fun for me to watch students play around and "oh and awe" at what they come up with.
I just discover your channel, super helpful. I can’t draw with this color pencils, I usually draw with acrylic or oil paints for fun. Will defnifitely follow your channel and learn more
There are also embossing tools for things like the whiskers- what kind of brush for applying solvent- how do you clean and does it ruin the brushes quickly? Thanks

Kirsty Partridge Art the scotch tape! Not lifting, I do that, but laying it down to etch in prior to laying down colour or even in the middle of layers! Genius!
Using another medium under the color pencil. I hate seeing the white under the color. Sometimes even burnishing doesn't get rid of all of it, & if I use too much solvent, it winds up just lifting & moving the color around, which is frustrating.
I couldn't describe how much i appreciate your tips and expertise KP. My art has stepped up several levels since i found your channel :) I just wanna say thankyou x
OMG! Thank you so much, I normally use paints because I love how coloured pencils look like but, had to stop because of how they end up looking like, and paints where the only way to get my artwork to look really good!
Was the video make specifically for me because.....THANK YOU! almost everything I have problems with while drawing is now solved, thank you again. I would love to see a part 2 (if you haven't already made it by now looking)
This is the first of your videos I’ve seen and it just caught me off guard on how much of an amazing artist you are when you were flipping through the mid toned sketch book...that’s all
Love this video. I have been using perisma color for 20 years. One tip on the pencil holder, i use a pencil cushion thingy to save my figers from the ridges. You are doing a great job! Power on!💖
Holy crap color pencil hacks video that are actually useful not clickbait? My wig just flew out the window
Baron Calle wig snatched 😂

LMFDTAO(laugh my fat,disgusting,thicc ass off)
Part 2..... yes please, all the tips were useful
Yeah my fav is the first one
Was that a pun
The tips? Tips of colored pencils
Hi... Kirsty 90% of people commented liked to paint / drawing, love your video. You are very experienced and smart. We always support you.
For the etching technique I also use a ballpoint pen which has ran out of ink and use colour pencil on top but loveee the video
I used my fingernail for creating the creases in the leather when I was drawing an old pair of ballet slippers.
I do the same thing
Dear Kirsty, I ❤️ all your art, you are an amazing artist 👩🎨 Thank you for sharing these tutorials. I’ve loved art in any way shape or form all my life.
I have started back painting with watercolour since this depressing COVID-19 has taken over our lives, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel
now 😊 🙏🏼 Take care.
congratulation for 300K subscriber
Blowing off trumpets?? I'm also ur subscriber..😊😊

Wow! Your videos are looking sooooo professional. Like you have a camera crew in there filming. Great job!
I have really been trying to step up my video editing game so I’m really glad it’s showing. No crew, just me 😊💕
Definitely had some ah ha moments from this video. Some of this techniques I already employ and love! Gods I couldn't live without my brushes and Exacto , but yes I definitely learned things from this Thank You!!!
TIP!
If u don’t have a kneaded eraser u can use a piece of Blue Tack!!!!
Yes! As a watercolor artist - a lot of us prefer certain brands of "Blue Tack" type stuff. We also use Mr. Clean magic erasers for different applications.
Really! When I was younger I used to always break up my eraser by rubbing it on paper and then I get the little bits and when I mix them up they’re like kneaded erasers.
@ANVESHA GUPTA nice, my 12th b day coming up in less than a week! (Ruined by quarantine)
@ANVESHA GUPTA I don’t know weather to be happy that someone actually cares, or sad that it’s ruined now... lol
@ANVESHA GUPTA thanks! Our oven just broke and that means no cake, but I would love to spend time with my family and celebrate my birthday with them! :)
Very good ideas and yes a part 2 plz.
The grainy texture is really pretty to me
That Black colour hack was awesome!

Yes, you don't use graphite with coloured pencil. It will dirty it and even stop it from getting in the paper.
What great ideas for the whiskers! Thanks for sharing.
You are insanely talented!!!!!
You have amazing talent at such a young age. You are been blessed.
congrats on 300K!! definitely going to have to try the tape with the pen to indent! I hate not being able to see where I have indented the lines
Wow super talented and excellent advice. Thank you for sharing. I haven't picked up a crayon for decades but seriously thinking of having a go. 🤗👍💕🍀😊
This is the best video about colored pencil's I 've ever seen. Thank you for that! It's very helpful! =)

Draw the stick man. Then again. Then add details. Then make lots of very very shitty art until it gets to mediocre. Then make lots of mediocre art until it gets good.
