Somerset Maugham  \nI just LOVE colored pencils! The more colors I own the better I feel. But to tell you the truth, all you really need to start out an adventure in artistic exploration is a basic set of 24 pencils, a paper pad, two erasers (white and kneaded) and a pencil sharpener. That’sit! Good quality materials help the students to produce better art as opposed to the use of low-quality supplies. However, it’s important to remember that it’s not just the materials that create a winning painting, but the artist who orchestrates beauty and harmony on paper.  \nColored pencils are versatile: they can be mixed with other media like watercolor, graphite, pastel, markers and even acrylic paint. Pencils allow for maximum control in realist rendering and deliver rich colorful surfaces. They are also the easiest medium to master drawing at home. For all of these reasons, I believe colored pencils offer the perfect medium for the beginning artist.  \nSo, let’s begin!  \nList of Terms Used in This Chapter  \nBurnishing – a technique of layering color with heavy pressure.
