Tip: Mixing Media – Copics and Colored Pencils

March 3, 2018 by Heather Holbrook

Tip: Mixing Media - Copics and Colored Pencils

When I’m coloring a stamped image I always pick one coloring medium and stick with it. But I’m limiting myself and maybe you are too? Many types of coloring mediums can be combined and used together, try mixing and playing around with different products, you might be surprised by the results. Kathy over at The Daily Marker had colored her stamped girl with Copic markers but wanted to add more detail so she used colored pencils on top to add more depth and shading plus details like eyelashes. She also used thin tip markers to add even more detail. She’s got info on mixing media together over on her blog.
