Something in colored pencil from the sketchbook. I can't get enough of fall leaves this year.

More fall: I'm trying to look down more when I walk around this season. I saw this the other day, with a beautiful range of color all in the same sycamore leaf. I drew it in colored pencil in my sketchbook today.

This used nine different colors of pencils, even though it looks monochromatic. Happy Fall!

I do like this paper's sturdiness as I layer the colored pencils with more and more pressure.

I'm trying to pay more attention to what's right in front of me, and yesterday it was fall leaves. Summer flew by, and I didn't get a chance to try this new paper, sold by Canson for drawing comics. I'm checking out the paper to see how it takes colored pencil.
