Experimenting with color pencil on sanded paper- Colourfix and Pastelbord

I received a great question in regards to using colour pencils on textured papers and boards. I had never taken the time to really give it a go, so I spent a week playing around with different surfaces and testing out what they could and could not do.

The eagle is available for sale at:

And the swan:

The surfaces I used were:
Art spectrum Colourfix (Original) paper in white. http://amzn.to/2f6vsy9
which is a very similar product to
Cansons Mi-tientes Tex (or branded "Touch"" elsewhere in the world)
Ampersand pastelboard (white)

I used my Polychromos, Luminance, Prismacolor and Procolor in these pieces and I found that the Polychromos and Procolour worked the best.

I used odorless mineral spirits to blend in these pieces.
