Details in Focus: Add Beautiful Color to Gray Copic Marker Projects (Grayscale Coloring Paper Recommendations)

A whole project with only gray Copic Markers?

How boring!

Actually no.

In the coloring world, grayscale is presented as a fun novelty technique. Something to try just for the heck of it.

But in the art world, gray is serious. Gray is how artists train.

Grayscale projects improve your coloring by teaching you to focus on value rather than color.

But oh, gray markers are so… uh… well… they’re gray.

Gray is drab and ho-hum.

Meh times 10.

Pssstt… gray is only boring if you color it boring.

My spooky Nevermore Manor online class project is anything but drab. You can get the same beautiful effects from your gray markers on a wide variety of projects!

Do You have problems staying in the lines with Copic Markers?

You’ve watched lots of coloring videos and everyone seems to color very neatly, staying inside the lines, with no raggedy edges. But to be perfectly honest, you’re just not getting it. You keep trying to be neat and tidy but still… your coloring just looks sloppy. It feels like you’re missing something. Something important.

Wouldn’t it be great if there was a class that focused less on cute projects and more on the technique?

Pssstttt… now there is!

Do Your Copic Marker Projects look Streaky?

You’ve watched lots of coloring videos, you’ve tried the tutorials, and scoured the internet for the best blending advice. But to be perfectly honest, you’re just not getting it. You keep practicing but your projects still don’t look smooth. It feels like you’re missing something. Something important.

Wouldn’t it be great if there was a class that focused less on cute projects and more on the technique?

Pssstttt… now there is!
