Watercolors
 
I've never used this technique but I want to give it a try.

What are the best & most reasonably priced watercolor pens/crayons & paper?

Any advice on getting started will be greatly appreciated.:)

There are a lot of different ways of using watercolors....paint, crayons, pencils, from markers....etc. One of the most economical ways is to buy a set of Prang paints (8 or 16 set).
My favorite way besides just painting is to use crayons directly on the rubber and then spritz with water.
Check out my blog for examples...just go through older posts.
Feel free to email for for specific questions.

Blender Pens
 
I absolutely love the watercolor crayons and blender pens. I have used the pens to blend the markers, too.

Just keep playing with it, and you will become more comfortable. Most people want perfection too early...when you need to go for appreciation of your own creativity.

Happy coloring,

if you want to water color use the bic marks it pens and a blender pen or aqua painter. You get the same effects as using copics and it only cost 7.00 for 24 markers.
