Realistic Landscapes with Copic Marker & Colored Pencil

A Lake Michigan Vacation!

"Point Betsie" is a Marker Painting Workshop that introduces you to coloring realistic landscapes.

Marker Painting Workshops are NON-SEQUENTIAL!

All of my Workshop classes are ANYTIME ACCESS. Work at your own pace and repeat the project as many times as you'd like.

The Point Betise digital stamp is included with class purchase! My digital stamps are ideal for Copic marker coloring but they also work great with colored pencil and even watercolor. My stamps are full of wide open spaces to blend and celebrate pretty color. There are no distracting texture marks to get in the way of your creativity!

That's what the "Vanilla" in Vanilla Arts Co. is all about. I give you the vanilla base, you add the hot fudge, the sprinkles, the whipped cream, and the Copic ink!

Point Betsie is a real place!

Located along the shores of Lake Michigan, just outside of the town of Frankfort, Point Betsie is the warning signal that northward boats are about to encounter the shifting sands of the Sleeping Bear Dunes and the Manitou Islands.

Northern Michigan is gorgeous and Point Betsie is a point of pride for those of us with roots there.

Point Betsie is an intermediate skills class, that introduces you to coloring realistic landscapes

Learn to incorporate real artistry into your coloring projects, one concept at a time. Every Workshop details a new method for enhancing realism, depth, and dimension.

Each class stands on its own as independent learning. You don't have to take six of my other classes to understand this lesson.

Workshops are NON-SEQUENTIAL!

All of my Workshop classes are ANYTIME ACCESS. Work at your own pace and repeat the project as many times as you'd like.

If you enjoy coloring Point Betsie, be sure to check out my other Lake Michigan lighthouse workshop, Big Sable Point.

I've had so much fun drawing these stamps and creating these classes that I hope to make an entire series of Great Lakes lighthouses.

Both stamps use the same techniques and very similar supply lists.
