Good technique works for more than just one coloring project. To color these festive candy canes with Copic Markers and colored pencils, I combined my intermediate ribbon lesson with my intermediate stripe class. Together, easy techniques add up to advanced realistic and artistic coloring.
Color Amazing Projects Without a Specialized Class
It would be impossible to create a Copic Marker or colored pencil class for everything everyone wants to color.
Even if I devoted all my time to producing classes, 24 hours a day, non-stop, I still couldn’t please everyone.
The good news is that you don’t need a dedicated class to color this festive set of candy canes with a rippling ribbon.
You can use techniques borrowed from other Vanilla Arts classes to color candy canes and ribbons.
Let’s start applying the techniques you’ve learned in other classes.
Good technique isn’t just good for one project.
Good technique is good for a lifetime of coloring!

Make the most out of every coloring class you take!
To color this cute little image with Copic and colored pencils, I used techniques from two Vanilla Arts classes.
Satin Gift + Cool Peppermint = a fast & festive Christmas still life
In the Satin Gift coloring workshop, students learn to create complex and flowing ribbons with touchable realism. This is a beginner’s challenge level lesson.
Learn the Universal Shading concept in the Cool Peppermint workshop, simplifying your coloring process while enhancing realism. This is an intermediate level lesson.
Candy Canes, an original digital stamp from VanillaArts.com. Amy’s stamps are full of wide open spaces with no texture marks, allowing your coloring to shine though with realism & artistry.
