Flowing Lines with Turquoise, Cream, and Pink

I started this drawing with flowing lines. I used deep pink and turquoise colors to trace along a few of the lines, then added some softer colors.

• Copic marker colors used: RV17, blurred with RV000; BG49, blurred with BG10; RV000, 91, BG10; YR20 with streaks of BG10 and RV91.
• Paper: Neenah, cut down to 5x7"

Landscape in Doodled Frame

A deeply colored landscape in a black and white doodled oval frame, with a pale blue background of wavy lines and tiny dots.

• Copic marker colors used: Black multiliners 0.2 and brush small. Wavy background is custom color B2000. Other colors are B26, BV04, Y000,26, V09, G07,17,24,28, YG63. For the mottled effect, the moon was dabbed lightly with YR20 on terry cloth, and the other landscape colors were dabbed with colorless blender on terry cloth.
• Paper: Neenah, 8.5x11"

Fruit Bowl 2 - Sketch

This was just a quick little warm-up drawing, pencil on scrap paper. But I liked it well enough to color it. The coloring is sketchy like the pencil drawing, but layered in places. See Fruit Bowl 1, a year earlier, for another version of the same subject.

• Copic marker colors used: B41,45, E00,04,95, G21, YG03,63,91, V04,15, YR04,09,15,21, R08,24, RV13,95
• Paper: 4x6" copier paper

Doodle with Gray, Sepia, and Pink

For this doodle, I started with the corners and worked in toward the center. After drawing the black lines, I added more lines in gray, sepia, and pink, along with some coloring. I'm happy with the result.

• Copic marker colors used: Black, cool gray, sepia and pink multiliners; C0, C3, E11, E33, RV10, RV13+RV91. The + means one color on top of another.
• Paper: Tan Crane's card 4x6".

Blog News 5

Updates to Mostly Markers, other than new drawings posted, since the last Blog News:

• Removed labels "Copic" and "pre-Copic." Since 2008, my drawings have been almost entirely Copic. Before that, they were all pre-Copic, so the two labels were just clutter. To see drawings by date, go to the archives list, below the label list on the right.
  
• Divided "About My Labels" into three parts, due to blog software limits on the number of labels per post.
• Updated "Tools I Like" with my new scanner information.
