    IMO you have come to the right place! Wendy’s shading technique with dark sepia is very much like graphite shading. And I find that Polychromos brand pencils are close behaving the same as graphite in erasing and blending, more than other brands of colored pencil. And Wendy only uses 22 pencils, so you have the chance to really get to know those 22 colors well. Welcome

    • Thank you so much for the comment and the welcome !

      Yes, I am busy busy looking for suitable similar materials to those she suggests
      here in Sardinia… I Think I am almost getting close…
      Also, trying to incorporate the supplies I have,..

      And, I think, approaching the colours a bit slowly,
      from a “distance”…until they don’t intimidate me so !

      Thanks again for the comments !
