Colored Pencils – Ornamental Approach

This week, we take an ornamental approach to colored pencils! We will color freely, but so that we don’t start with a blank paper.

Ornamental approach to colored pencils. Colored pencil art by Paivi Eerola, Finland.

This is the piece I am creating in the video. The process is fun and the result is ornamental.

Ornamental Approach – Watch the Video!

To get started, you will need drawing paper, pencil, eraser, ruler, and round templates, for example, plates or lids will do.

I hope this kind of ornamental coloring inspires you to start and keep going!

  3. I wrote this after watching the wonderful video: ‘You make the most amazing videos, Päivi. The painting with coloured pencil one above has got to be my favourite. I loved to hear this from you: “Your inner world is endless as soon as you go beyond the conventional.” That also applies to any form of imaginative self-expression, or intuitive skills and mediumship.’
