In this Christmas squirrel drawing with holly colored pencil tutorial, I show you how to draw a Christmas squirrel drawing with holly. This colored pencil tutorial Christmas card style drawing is more for advanced colored pencil artists because fur can be difficult to draw, but you are more than welcome to give it a go regardless of your experience with fur and colored pencils.

Through this colored pencil Christmas card tutorial I will discuss some of the techniques I used to drawing the fur of the Christmas squirrel drawing, the holly leaves, and the holly berries. I begin with getting a good base layer of colors down on the paper and slowly build up the fur layers gradually.
