Are colour pencils just pencils in colour?

Graphite and coloured pencils / pencil crayons, have a clear relationship in their structure, however as with all tools, how one wields them can change how you see and record the world. This is NOT a How to Draw course, but rather how to apply the basic principles of Value, Saturation and Temperature (VST) to describe various surfaces and textures. We will use image photocopies as opposed to still life observations to break down and translate shape and value patterns.
