Materials I Used
Creating a colour golden Labrador drawing has been such a delightful and rewarding experience for me. Using high-quality materials like Prismacolor pencils on Stonehenge white paper really brought out the best in this piece.
When I started this drawing, I wanted to capture the warm and friendly nature of a golden labrador. Prismacolor pencils, with their rich pigments and smooth application, were perfect for this. The white Stonehenge paper provided an excellent surface that enhanced the colours and details of the drawing.
First, I began with a light sketch to outline the golden labrador’s shape and features. I focused on the proportions and distinctive characteristics of the breed, such as the expressive eyes and floppy ears.
Next, I started layering the base colours using light strokes. For a golden labrador, I used shades of yellow, gold, and brown to build up the fur’s texture. Prismacolor pencils blend beautifully, allowing me to create a smooth transition between colours.
As I added details, I paid close attention to the fur’s direction and the highlights in the eyes. Using a combination of light and dark shades, I added depth and dimension to the drawing.
Finally, I refined the drawing by adding the final touches, such as whiskers and subtle shadows. This step brought the drawing to life, making the golden labrador appear more realistic and three-dimensional.
