Layering is at the heart of coloured pencil drawing — and it’s the key to building realistic textures. In this tutorial, I’ll show you exactly how to layer pencils to capture different surfaces and effects.

We’ll work from a fried egg on toast reference: the toast is full of small, uneven holes, while the egg white has larger, softer textures. Together, these make the perfect example for learning how layering can create contrast and realism in your drawings.

By the end of this video, you’ll see how to apply the same layering process to almost any subject, whether it’s food, fabric, or natural textures.
