Nice straight forward tutorial, my favorite was using water to blend the colors, it’s just a personal preference but valued the other techniques as well. I’m a beginner and have more success using a marker in lieu of a paint brush even though that’s a more economical way to go. I look forward to more no nonsense informative videos, keep up the good work!

@EStampleyArt

Hey Kiana! Glad the video was helpful. Below is a link to the kit on Amazon but most art stores, if they carry Tombow markers should have the blending kit as well. www.amazon.com/Tombow-56180-Blending-Palette-Colorless/dp/B00FOY2UAA/ref=sr_1_4?crid=2NG0ELK2YBO78&keywords=tombow+blender&qid=1640625423&sprefix=tombow+blender%2Caps%2C94&sr=8-4 Good question. I tested this with two different colorless blender pencils. And since these are water-based markers, trying to blend them with a colorless blender, which is dry media, doesn't really work very well.

Hello JudithF! I used a Cason's Mixed Media sketchbook which works pretty well with just a little bit of water. But you should definitely be able to use watercolor paper as well.

Is there a specific type of paper I should be using for these techniques? When I try the direct to paper blending technique in my fine grain sketchbook, it starts scratching off some of the paper and can even tear a hole if I do it too much.

Hey Lee-nna Tero - It could be the type of paper you are using. In this demonstration I was using a Canson mixed-media sketchbook with 98lb paper. Paper is important with the direct to paper blending and with marker work in general. Some papers tend to bleed more than others. I hope this was helpful.

Some sets don't come with a colorless blender, but you can get one separately. However, you can still use techniques #3-the two-toned method and #4-blending with water to help blend your colors together.

Hey there! I know some of the new color sets don't come with one. So you may have gotten one of those. However, you can get the colorless blender just by itself if needed.

The final example of blending with water and paintbrush is the only one that looks good….the others look like markers were used and you can see the lines of each stroke. I do not understand why people like markers…I keep looking for a reason to invest. If you are going to blend with water and use a paintbrush and cup of water, why not just use watercolor paint? why spend so much money on markers?? . Water color paint is available cheap to expensive. Help me understand.

Hey JustStartingOver! I can't speak for everyone but I know some people either don't like or are intimidated by watercolors. I definitely was scared of watercolors until making myself try them. I have tried different varieties and am still trying to understand the best way to use them. As far as using markers, everyone can use them and they are easily accessible for children to adults and you get a fun colorful result without having to have the other tools you may need for any kind painting, including watercolor. However, I do understand not liking the "streaking" look that you can get with markers but sometimes if blended correctly the streaks can mostly disappear. I hope this was helpful. 😀
