Coloring Animals with Copic Markers - Hello, Monday 02/19/2018

(click in the pics to enbiggan)

True confessions:  I struggled with Copic Markers whenever I colored animals.  For a long time, I couldn't get the look or effect I wanted.  I noticed there were a few artists out there whose method of coloring animals really struck a chord with me, so I started practicing with a different approach. I do love these results (I still need to keep practicing), and thought I'd share what I've been trying. :)

I'm also playing with one of my favorite United We Flourish sets:  Good Friends by My Favorite Things for ellenhutson.com  I used the same coloring method on all the samples I show in the video and I'll have the Copic colors I used listed below in the supplies.
