How to begin

Choose according to detail and the technique you want to try. Small spaces suit local contrasts, while broad scenes leave room for shading and gradients. Test pencil pressure on scrap paper.

Review your work

There is no required palette unless a key is given. Decide where the lightest or darkest area will be and follow that choice across the scene for consistent color.

Try a small palette

Choose three or four colors and test them together on scrap paper. Repeat a color in separate areas to connect them visually, or leave some spaces white. With markers, place a protective sheet underneath and check whether ink shows through.
