Colored pencils are ideal for the detailed fur patterns of the Border Collie and creating subtle textures on the tree trunk. Markers can be used for smooth, even coverage on the larger grassy areas and simplified roots. Fine-tipped pens can add crisp outlines or small details to the grass.
Start with the largest areas like the grassy ground and tree trunk using light, even pressure. Use a simple color palette, perhaps focusing on natural tones for the dog and environment. Work from the center of each section outwards to avoid going over lines. Take short breaks to keep your hand relaxed and prevent fatigue.
Utilize cross-hatching to create realistic fur texture on the Border Collie, varying pressure for different shades. Apply color layering with 2-3 shades for the tree trunk to give it depth and a weathered look. Experiment with subtle gradients on the simplified roots for a volumetric effect. Use fine point pens for outlining individual blades of grass for added detail.
