Such a winning smile and so much to learn in this tantalizing portrait tutorial!

Photographed at a Powwow, where indigenous nations gather to celebrate the traditions of their ancestors, this lovely Muscogee woman provides you with various challenges as an artist: drawing long braids, a feather, shiny metal earrings, and variations in skin tones.

You’ll learn to work on easy-to-find gray Canson paper, and use just 18 pencils as you soak up Debra Yaun’s methods for drawing smooth skin tones and textures. You’ll scrub with brushes and you’ll lift with a Slice tool and you’ll even use a marker, too!

You got this! 

Don’t be intimidated by the complexity – there are 30 clear steps with 30 large images and detailed instructions for every step, so relax and enjoy the journey!

A graduate of Ringling College of Art & Design, Debra has written and illustrated many art instruction books. Her preferred mediums are watercolor, colored pencil, scratchboard, pastel and graphite. Preferred subjects are portrait, nature, wildlife and pets.

Why an In-Depth tutorial?
A tutorial can be so useful in so many ways. A tutorial teaches you the author's methods. And also obviously, when you draw along with a tutorial, you learn by doing, which is much more powerful than learning by watching alone.

But even more importantly, a step by step teaches you how to break down complicated subjects into small, achievable steps, learning how to look at a reference photo with an artist’s eye, analyzing where and how to start, and which details to leave in and which to leave out. It's an important skill to learn and important for any colored pencil artist's success.
