There was a tutorial here on SCS yesterday on coloring with markers.. look in the resources for it.. also if you do a search on www.youtube.com you can find tutorials on there too.. I was watching some on coloring with Copics last night.. I just searched copics ~ my kids were watching too, they really like to color using the markers. Pam

The tutorial that went up yesterday is great if you don't own copics! Its super fun.

Personally I do have copics and love them! I have some helpful tutorials on my blog if you're interested

If you aren't finding resources that teach you like you want, consider this.... find coloring from people that you admire. Take apart their coloring in your mind and study it. You can even do this with great pieces of artwork. Study where they put their color. What colors they used together? Where did they put their shadows (remember that a light source usually comes from one side)? Then, practice, practice, practice! The more you use your medium (whether it is watercolor, markers, or .......) the better you will get at it!
