Copic Coloring Tips- Improve Your Coloring with Glazing  @AmyShulke

Do you color literally? Literal coloring is when a colorer works overtime to keep their Copic Marker or colored pencil colors very clean and pure. They don't blend much because they're afraid of making mud.

In this video we discuss how the obsession with crayon-box colors hampers your ability to color with realism. It also keeps you from developing your own style or voice.

Glazing is a technique developed in 17th century Holland and we can use it today with Copic Markers and colored pencils!

The latest Vanilla Arts online coloring class ("Dragonfly") is an introduction to the glazing technique for markers + pencils.
