Me? Using colored pencils?

I've had a set of Prismacolor pencils forever, but I rarely use them. I never feel like I have control over a pencil but when I use this textured paper, it seems much easier.



I'm usually pretty impatient when I create art, and having to add layer after layer of the pencil to get the desired result is on the level of standing in line at the DMV. But it sure does end up looking nice...
