The difference between beginner and advanced Copic Marker technique is not what you think. You may already know all the techniques necessary for advanced coloring, so what's holding you back?
If you've been practicing smooth marker blending for more than a year, you're stuck coloring at a beginner level because you're focused on the wrong goal.
Illustrator and art instructor, Amy Shulke shares an important message for anyone stuck on the hamster wheel of techniques and blending. Artistry, creativity, and realism can only happen when you stop focusing on technique and set your sights on the artistic concepts beyond blends.
Amy's videos offer coloring tutorials, blending combinations, and marker blending lessons for mixed media Copic Markers + colored pencils. This episode demonstrates how a professional artist uses beginner strokes to create photorealism.
