Everybody talks about the flick stroke…

You can’t spend 10 minutes looking at Copic on the Internet without stumbling across a reference to flicking.

But here’s the problem - instructors and bloggers don’t seem to agree on what a flick is and how to do it.

Really?

Really. It's likely in the top ten things that marker bloggers blog about and if I had a Twinkie for every different explanation, I've seen...

Well, I'm not sure what I'd do with a three-story high pile of Twinkies... but you get the idea.

 

 
 

Join me for a deep dive look at the Marker Painting flick technique

What a flick is, what it looks like, how to do it, when to do it...

This isn't just a passing glance at flicking! I even get into maximizing your wrist anatomy to make the best flick possible.

This online course is perfect for:

  • complete beginners

  • self taught colorers who feel as if they've accidentally missed key information

  • long time colorers who still encounter problems with blending, shading, or developing convincing depth
