I spent several weeks on these pages. They are blended with the Caran d'Ache colourless blender pencils that I demonstrated in the video in the previous post. (If you clock on the picture a larger version will appear.)
I'm a colourista living in the Swedish countryside with my fiancé. On this blog I will publish my coloured pages, book and pencil reviews, tips and tricks and all sorts of thoughts about colouring, art and anything else that makes life worth living.

Some blending tools

Blending is a great way to add some oomph to your coloured pencils. It can make the colours more vibrant, smooth out some of the streaks and lines and even protect your design from smudging. This Christmas I got my sister some blender pencils. As she was clueless as to how to use them - and she lives across the Atlantic -, I made her this video about my blender pencils of choice and a comparison with paper stumps, another useful tool. Perhaps the video will be useful to some of you who have been wondering about blending!
