Coloured Pencil Artworks

I love working with coloured pencils in my artworks, it’s a fantastic medium not so widely recognised within the Australian art community.
Many artists and collectors when first introduced to coloured pencil art are surprised by the versatility and richness that can be achieved with coloured pencils  as well as being intrigued on just how long it takes! Artwork created with coloured pencils take lots of  patience each artwork taking many many hours to get the 20 plus layers of pencil (longer than some oil paintings) for each completed piece.
