Coloring with Copic Markers-a Sample
I am self taught in most of my artistic endeavors. After viewing beautiful works of art colored with Copic Markers I decided that I, too, wanted to learn to create art like that. Color scares me. Or I should say, adding color to my projects scares me. But I buckled down and bought myself a few Copic Markers at a time until I had enough of them to 'play' with. I researched the web, viewed countless tutorials using these markers and promptly fell in love with them. I pictured myself placing them in my hand and beautiful music flowing out of them naturally. NOT! I have perservered. Here is a practice sample of my efforts. I love this stamp. It reminds me of nature and spring/summer, of happiness, of beauty. Don't judge too harshly, I have hours upon hours of practice to do! Oh, btw, my grandson grapped my markers before I could write down which ones that I used for this - a major pet peeve of mine is when someone doesn't list the colors that they used. OOPS! I won't let that happen again! Sorry 'bout that. Elle
