Colored Pencil Workbook: Fabulous Flowers

Master lifelike botanical rendering with 20 projects you complete in the book

Overlapping petals, subtle color shifts, translucent edges that seem to glow. Sun-Kyong Clifford breaks down these challenges across twenty complete flower projects, each paired with a pre-printed sketch you work on directly in the book. This hands-on approach eliminates the intimidation of starting from blank paper, you focus entirely on colored pencil techniques rather than worrying about initial drawing accuracy.

Each project builds specific skills: layering translucent petals, creating depth through color temperature shifts, rendering the delicate veining that gives flowers their character. Clifford's step-by-step guidance addresses the practical questions that arise during actual work, which colors to layer first, how much pressure to apply, when to burnish for smooth blends versus leaving texture visible. The 8.5 x 11 format provides generous working space while detailed photographs show exactly what each stage should look like.

The pre-printed sketches serve dual purposes: immediate practice for beginners building confidence, and quick studies for experienced artists exploring new subjects. You develop observational skills alongside technical control, learning to see how light interacts with organic forms. The result is a workbook that functions as both instruction manual and active practice studio.
