Colored pencils is a new media for me, and they're a new addition to my artist's arsenal. In my case, they're not a professional grade, but a children's set of 12 colors. They have very bright pigments, and I decided to try creating a series of works, limiting myself to this material and palette. This is what came out of it. The works were done in an A4 sketchbook, several on a single sheet, on ivory paper. Enjoy.
