Copic Tips, Tricks and Techniques for Beginners

Description

Welcome to Copic Tips, Tricks & Techniques for Beginners Class!

This is the perfect class for you if you are new to using alcohol based markers and would love some guidance with different tips and tricks to get you started as well as a bunch of different but simple techniques you can use to create with your markers.

This class has a Supply List that lets you know a lot of the supplies that I used throughout this class. Those supplies are linked to where you can find the supplies. There are also resource links in that supply list to help you with this journey. Most of the images used are creative commons images which gives you a lot of choice to start practicing on! You can find the Supply List Linked with the Introduction Video.

I have been using copics for 15 years and have completed both their basic cerification as well as their intermediate certification. Copics are my absolute favourite way to colour images and I'm excited to share this knowledge with you!

Here's what we will cover in this class:

1 -Basic information about copics, what they can do and why I love them

2 -Information about the colourless blender, what it does and does NOT do!

3 -3 basic blending techniques

4 -How to blend 3 different colours within the same colour family

5 -Colouring Skin tones and Hair

6 -Colouring with copics on top of glitter

7 -How to colour on Vellum

8 -Colouring on top of White embossing

9 -Creating Custom Embellishments

10 -Applying liquid mediums over copics

11 -Different techniques for creating patterns and Textures

*note* Colouring with Alcohol Markers requires a different technique than the dye based markers we all grew up with. There is a learning curve to it, so expect the learning curve and enjoy the process of discovering this new medium! I share with you many of the different colour choices I am using but you do not need the EXACT ones I am using to learn and discover colouring with Copics.
