Today\u2019s post is about my favorite colored pencils. When I first began coloring in 2015 after finding the Praying in Color book by Sybil McBeth I used what I could afford. After doing research I really wanted to try out higher quality pencils. I had come across Prismacolor Colored Pencils. When I first found out about them in 2015 they were still a bit out of my price range. In July of 2017 after I published my first book(links to purchase are in the sidebar on the right) I found a set of 24 on Amazon for $14.95.<\/p>\n

Here is one of the pages in that book colored with those pencils. They have a very soft lead that makes blending a dream. I highly recommend them.<\/p>\n
