Color Pencil Portraits

Color Pencil is a beautiful soft buttery medium. It shows great detail and is on smoother paper with little tooth (texture). I only use lightfast color pencils to help protect your work from UV damage.

​

I use top-quality colored pencils and paper to create each drawing. Fabercastell Polychromos, Caran D'ache Luminance, and Dewert Lightfast Pencils. I use two different paper types. Bright white background with hot-pressed Fabriano Artistico paper or Dura-Lar matte polyester film paper. These have different looks and feels.

Watercolor

Watercolor is soft with less detail and paper with heavier tooth (texture). I will apply a UV perfection spray to reduce the fading of watercolor.

 

The watercolor color is on high-quality artist watercolor paper and Winsor and Newton Professional watercolors.

"My family has utilized Lindsey's talent for years. She has done several paintings of our family, capturing the exact image I perceived each time. I surely expect she will be hearing from us again soon! 5 stars.
