Artist's Notebook: It Doesn’t Take a Lot of Color to Create a Rainbow (Copic Marker, Colored Pencil)

I love color.

You love color.

Color, color, color. It’s all about the color. The more, the better!

But I’m always a little sad when I see Copic Marker tutorials or colored pencil classes that use a mile long list of supplies. And I’m even sadder when I read online posts from people who sincerely want to start coloring but they’ve talked themselves out of it, because they don’t have enough colors yet.

Folks, you don’t need to own the whole rainbow.

In fact, it’s better if you don’t.
