Capturing the Charm of a Coloured Cockapoo Drawing

Materials I Used

Size: A3
Medium: Prismacolor pencils
Paper: Stonehenge white

I’m thrilled to share one of my latest pieces, a vibrant coloured Cockapoo drawing. This portrait, drawn on white Stonehenge paper using Prismacolor Premier Coloured Pencils, showcases the playful and affectionate nature of this beloved breed.

The Art of the Coloured Cockapoo Drawing

Creating this coloured Cockapoo drawing was a delightful experience. The soft, thick cores of Prismacolor pencils allowed me to blend and layer colours seamlessly, capturing the Cockapoo’s curly fur and expressive eyes with precision. The white Stonehenge paper provided a perfect canvas, enhancing the vibrancy of the colours and allowing for smooth, even colour laydown.

Exploring My Dog Gallery

This Cockapoo portrait is just one of many dog drawings I’ve had the pleasure of creating.

Choosing the Right Photos

The quality of the reference photos is crucial for creating a detailed and accurate portrait.

Multiple angles and close-ups can help me capture the finer details, ensuring that the final piece truly reflects your pet.
