The paper I use is light grey PastelMat Paper. It has a sandpaper like texture and if you don't have this you can use another similar textured paper like UART 800 Grade Paper.

Blending Solvent

They key to the amazing results you see in these pictures is a blending solvent. The one I use is Zest It and it's a great product for coloured pencil drawing.

Brushes

I use a selection of Round Brushes to apply the solvent such as Sizes 1, 2, 4 and 6.
