For this exercise I used my drawings from the previous exercise to develop into colour. 

I worked using coloured pencils and I used the colours orange, yellow and black. 

I worked in line first and gradually applied colour as I went. I referenced my previous sketches rather than working from first hand.

I tried to start by applying just a touch of colour by applying light pressure on my coloured pencil, then gradually increasing the pressure to try to give a stronger line and more depth. 

I struggled with this exercise, I think the main reason I struggled was because I was working from my previous line drawing rather than from life or a photograph. Because my line drawing didn’t show much tone or where the light was coming from I felt like I was almost making my drawing up. I think my end result looks flat and if I was to do this exercise again I would work from life or at the very least a photograph. 

I feel I didn’t manage to create a sense of depth with my limited colour palette and this is definitely a technique I would like to experiment further with, but in future I think drawing from source rather than a quick line drawing will hopefully be more successful.
