Hellebore in Coloured Pencil

A botanical art tutorial by Emma Tildesley.

In our coloured pencil project this month I wanted to share with you a different technique for blending pale colours. We will be using a small synthetic brush so please check the materials list and watch a little bit of the video before starting to make sure you have a suitable brush to hand. I hope you enjoy it!
