π Tiny berries, BIG color.
Blueberries may be small, but they pack a punch when it comes to color! We put our soft colored pencils to the test by drawing a cluster of fresh blueberries β and the results were berry impressive.
The challenge with blueberries:
Capturing the deep indigo, purple, and navy tones without making them look flat.
Adding the powdery bloom (that soft white-gray layer on the skin).
Creating glossy highlights that make the berries look fresh and juicy.
How our pencils delivered:
β
Layering power β we built the dark blues from light to deep without waxy buildup.
β
Blendability β the transition from dark blue to purple and black shadows was seamless.
β
Precision β the tiny highlights and speckles stayed crisp with a sharp point.
π¨ Color palette used:
Light blue, ultramarine, violet, dark navy, cool grey, warm grey, white.
Don't let their size fool you β blueberries are a colorful challenge worth taking!
