How about a little Copic Love for this blog hop? This is what I have been working on recently, lots of color studies for the photo tutorials over at Copic In the Craft room! Did you know that I create a new video and photo tutorial that are available free to everyone at the Copic In The Craft Room Facebook page? Here are some quick peeks into some of the art I have created for the photo color comparisons.

Every week I have compares all the natural blending groups in one Copic color family. I have a few more weeks left and I will have them all covered.

On the video front we have really focused in on simple shading with natural blending groups and even one marker shading. Here is a pile of a few of those as well.

All right enough already, you ready to win a class? Here are the 6 questions:

1. What is Debbie’s Olson’s favorite thing to sketch and color?
2. What is Michele Boyer’s favorite use for her colorless blender?
3. What technique does Lori Craig share on her blog today?
4. What is one of Cindy Lawerence’s favorite ways to fill her backgrounds with Copic color?
5. What is Sharon Harnist’s favorite Copic color?
6. Besides my blog where do I (Michelle Houghton) post LOTS of Copic information?

To find all the answers hop to all the other blogs and e-mail your answers to me by hitting the little envelope in the upper right corner of my blog.
