Colored pencils are ideal for the intricate shell patterns and adding subtle texture to the sand. Fine-tip markers or gel pens can enhance small details, while watercolor pencils offer smooth blending for the shell's larger sections.
Start with larger areas like the main body of the shell using light, even pressure. Use simple color schemes for the shell and sand. Outline elements first, then fill them in to stay within the lines. Take short breaks to avoid hand fatigue.
Create depth on the shell using color layering with 3-4 shades to define the spirals and patterns. Employ stippling or cross-hatching for a textured look on the sand. Use blending techniques for smooth transitions on the snail's body. Consider adding subtle highlights with a white gel pen.
