    @S M Pendragon:

    You explained it well. I usually start with a lighter color and go dark. Maybe I should try the reverse sometime like you do. Thanks for explaining.

    @Keba Si Rota:

    Thank you!! And, yes, I do use colored pencils.

    Hmmm. Well, first I shaded the whole thing with a dark red pencil and then I came through again with a brighter red which helped to fill it out. Once I scanned it onto my computer I digitally enhanced the colors so it shows up nicely. I think it's the mixed colors that make it look smooth. I hope that answers your question and sorry if I'm not the best at explaining things.

    That's a very pretty dress. You used colored pencils, right? How do you get them to look so smooth? My coloring never comes out that smoothly.

    And I think your bird looks good too.
