“Cadbury Brown”: A Copic Blending Combination

Add a royal purple to a brown blending combination for depth and dimension

E and V Copic Markers

Real shade is not darker color, real shade is desaturated color.

To create the murky shade colors that Copic Marker does not make, Vanilla Arts Company teaches Online Workshops using the underpainting method. Students learn to layer colors realistically rather than blend.

Underpainting creates natural colors found in everyday life.
