How to Draw with Markers and Colored Pencils 

Its cup of tea ! 🙂

Lmaooo

That’s really impressive, even if you’re following a step by step. I hope you’re still making artwork, cause it sounds like you’ve got the skill!

L.Drawings TY FOR THIS

Too brookkkee to see thisws LoL

Does this work for ohuhu?

@ me too✨

My man 🙌🔥💯

Same

Thanks Ngoc!

choochoochooseyou the idea is that if you only use darker and darker versions of the same tone, it will eventually look very monotone and muddy. Choosing a dark version of a different color still within the original colors spectrum ( I.e. Warm colors with warm, cool colors with cool) it will enhance the color and maki it much more vibrant.

choochoochooseyou color wheel works wonders for what goes together and what doesn’t

You're very welcome!

Thanks!

Jay Girl yea

Disco Prime Thanks for the response. Sorry, lol maybe I'm a bit slow but when you said "yeah" was it yes, water-based will damage the tooth? Or yes, I can also use water-based markers? I do art work too. If you're on instagram, feel free to check it out (@j.elle.allen). I use colored pencils and want to begin incorporating markers but need more knowledge and practice first.

i do art too but i am a beginer...the yes which i said stands for-yes it will do damage the parer n alcohol based wont.

Many coloured pencil artists use watercolour as a base layer before adding the pencils on top. Just have to make sure you are using the right paper

Hi Debbie, Unfortunately not. You must be very careful when transferring to prevent this.

I was wondering this too, about image transfer and indentations, so thanks for the answer :) I've also seen people deliberately putting indentations into their paper (eg with the end of a skewer, to create a textured look of 'white spots' on an apple, for example - once the 'indented dots' are there for texture and highlights of sorts,, the pencil tends to glide over the top of it and the white of the paper is left - another great one is for creating the thin veins of a leaf without 'messing' them up - eg - create the general outline of the leaf on your main drawing paper; ..... have a separate piece of paper with the graphite lines of the leaf veins drawn on it separately, .......then place it over your main drawing and trace over it with an 'embossing tool/skewer; not sharp!) gently, ...... so when one does an 'underpainting (and then layering), the 'indented' veins are left as the original colour of the paper (is this what they would call 'negative' type of drawing?) I guess this is easier rather than painstakingly drawing each vein into the leaf and then carefully avoiding ruining them whilst colouring or shading/tinting - one can just run the pencil(s) over them - I thought that was pretty cool anyway - lots of you probably already know this, but was a great tip when saw it -and applicable to many things .... and i can't believe i had forgotten my childhood days of scribbling over a paper, when drawing, and placing a 'raised pattern (even the corners of paper, or a coin) underneath my paper, and the coin, or pattern underneath would emerge as the pencil/crayon was glided (scribbled) over the paper - ooooooo, such fun!!!! lol! ...... Similar type of principle (though in this case, not indenting the paper (actually 'raising it from beneath) So - I guess that unintended indentations, whilst generally to be avoided - can be very useful too (if intended) - I'm still learning (or re-learning, after a long break away from drawing and gosh, I've learned so much up here!! Fantastic teacher and course - saw it on UDEMY too - and thinking thinking about it! Had already enrolled in another drawing course though before i saw yours - but this one looks very comprehensive and I did enroll in the coloured pencil course, very exciting! ... (and will visitg your website again too (seen the free gouche painting part of the watercolor course, was great!) ..... and yes, I know, I'm rambling LOL, sorry! Just getting very excited - I LOVE learning and seeing something appearing to be 'created' from nothing ....... So again, thank you - people like you, 'The Virtual Instructor' and many others up here, you give so much!

If you have more money go for copics but they tend to be more expensive, winsor newtom promarkers are good and prismacolor markers are used on the video

It’s a flat cola, it would have bubbles if there were any carbonation in it. 😁😂

Sharpies are alchohol based like Prismacolor (the markers Matt uses in this lesson), Copic and several other brands. The main issue would be color matching.

Prismacolor markers and colored pencils. Check out Matt's courses; he is a great teacher and a gifted artist. I learned more from him in 6 months than I have learned everywhere else over a lifetime!

It will be hard to blend them, try using cotton buds and mineral oil. Alcohol isn't recommended as it will dillute the alcohol marker's color there

Ahiruko Noumi it could be flat.

Ahiruko Noumi flat cola... to go with your soggy fries. Yummy

I thought that too....even fast forwarded to the end to see if any were added.

it is flat cola

Ahiruko Noumi it's a rum and cola!

It is okay, but the teeth would be troubling when you add the marker, it would be harder to blend and bleeding could happen

Shadow nightmare those are prisma color pencils and copic markers the pencils are relatively inexpensive but the markers are pricey as shit you can get them both on amazon or micheals or most art and craft stores

WTF lmao...😂

The markers are not Copic Markers; Copic markers have an oval shaped barrel and are a light grey plastic. Those markers are Prismacolor Premier Artist Markers. Prismacolor markers are not cheap by any means but they are not as pricey as Copic Markers. The awesome thing about Prismacolor markers is they match their illustration markers and Prismacolor Premier, Verithin and watercolor pencils. It is an awesome color system with great consistency of color across the entire range of products. You can get all of these products a lot of places but I have found the best prices, selection and customer service from Blick Art. No, I do not work for Prismacolor or Blick and Iam no expert; I am only hoping to be helpful. The person who trolled out that disgusting tasteless comment after Doodle Hood also needs some help but I can only do so much here. SMH P.S. Matt is also using Prismacolor Premier colored pencils on this and possibly their Verithin colored pencils for the tight detail, such as the highlights.

By layering your colors you build up complexity.

Safro Rox trust and believe talent is bull shit just practice and practice and practice until you get confident

Hi Jonathon, The are Prismacolor Premiere markers.

Thanks!

I think you cant use marker more dark than pencil because are much 'power' try use marker more lighter and then use colored pencil (Sorry for the mistake)

@@andreagualtiero5567 Thank you for replying to my question. I've watched videos where they use lighter color pencils over the darker markers and they still show. I wasn't sure if they use a specific kind of colored pencils over markers. Maybe oil based or something. Maybe the kind i'm using just aren't the right kind?

@@merisonola i use Faber castell,if you put marker beneath them you can see the pencils but not as much as using the pencil over a blank sheet because they mix together

It depends on how saturated your colored pencils are with pigments, and how much alcohol marker you lay down on the paper. If you can, get a few c'aran dache colored pencils (few greys, white and dark colors). If it's still not showing up try adding pastels lightly to your drawing or using blender marker and a paper underneath to desaturate the already colored portion of the paper, the paper underneath will absorb the pigment and making your drawing lighter.

@@ianpatrickwijaya2657 ... Thank you very much for replying. I appreciate your help.

No. Should I?

Drawing & Painting - The Virtual Instructor I just noticed you had hairy arms yet your hands were hairless, just a strange observation haha.

@@Nerflover10097 you noticed two lmao i had a friend like that but it was his legs and his feet.
