Beautiful work Desmond,,is it your wife posing again? cotton pads are excellent blending tools!!! ^^
I use fingers, or a soft cotton rag with pencil work, or my water color sponge..dry of course!!

Oh, don't worry about it, Asa
I'm not sure if I should list higlighter pen and I don't know if it even belongs to a pencil artist's workstation at all as it's completely different medium and feel

I guess my earlier comment didn't go thru but thanks so much and also for the sharing. Glad to know you have some ingenious ways to go about your pencil art....fingerpainting is great! Its not easy and requires good touch sensation. I just saw a youtube clip on it but its on ipad! However, he's a great artist [link]

It did..but this one didn't, I found it when I came back to look again^^ I'll look at the link later,(time here is 02.15 zzz) thank you for sharing!! Rubbing fingers towards the paper makes the shadows blend nicely..but fingerpainting with color is fun too,,I do that when using acrylic colors

Graphite transfer n blend seems so much easier to me compared to pencil shading n then blend. I'm still finding me way back to traditional, my colorful friend Hope my Wacom tablet doesn't feel neglected hehe

Yep, did this work mostly using cotton pads and buds for blending. I also used highlighter pen for the first time
Thanks, Shelley
