Red Currants in Coloured Pencil
A botanical art tutorial by Emma Tildesley.
We have some lovely juicy currants this month with high shine and high contrast. We will be using lots of rich reds and pinks to build up to full saturation. I am using a luminance Pink White in this tutorial but if you don't have that you can use either a Polychromos White or a Cold Grey I. Have fun!
