Add dimension and realism by underpainting with Copic Markers! Use C6 underneath your BG (Blue-Green) blending combination to find the color of deep water. | VanillaArts.com | #copicmarker #realisticcoloring #underpainting
 
 

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

To create the desaturated colors that Copic 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.
