Introduction to Copic Markers: Illustration Techniques for Beginners

This class is a introduction to the world of illustration markers! Whether you are a beginner who has yet to pick up their first marker or someone who is frustrated with a new medium, this class will introduce materials and techniques so that you can feel confident to exploring your coloring! I will explain how the Copic marker system works, how you can choose your colors, and other brands of alcohol markers. Once we review coloring techniques, I have included an original illustration to be used as a coloring page for our class project!

If you are completely new to illustration markers, I highly recommend watching the first three videos before heading to your local art supply store.
