“Willow Catkin” a Green YG Copic Marker blending combination

Add soft fuzzy shade to a Spring Green blending combination with one BV Copic Marker.

Real shade is not darker color, real shade is desaturated color.

To create the murky shade colors that Copic Marker does not make, Vanilla Arts Company teaches Online Workshops using the underpainting method. Students learn to layer colors realistically rather than blend.

Underpainting creates the natural colors found in everyday life.
