Sketching the seasons with coloured pencils

To enjoy the transition in the seasons, get out into nature and document the colour transformation of the natural world. Whether you're in Southern coppery Autumn tones, or Spring with vibrant colours starting to bud. The simplicity of coloured pencils on paper allows you to pack up your sketchpad and head outdoors.

 

Here's an assembly of tutorials we have found to guide you through the techniques for sketching nature, or just sketching for the sake of sketching. We recommend the Tombow Irojiten coloured pencils here at HOW. But any good quality set will make the difference between a creative, absorbing and truly satisfying retreat and....just drawing.
