This class is the third and last in Michelle Houghton’s three-part Copic Coloring Series.  It is for those who have been coloring for a while or who have taken an introductory class on Copic markers. Copic Craze is available immediately and teaches basic blending techniques, feathering, numbering systems, introductory shading to get you up and running with Copic markers.

I have selected 14 images (by myself and 3 stamp artists) and built lessons around them that teach you advanced shading techniques for skin and hair, fabric pleats, showing different light sources, saturation and transparent coloring. And for the first time in this series, you can watch me as I work on 10 of these images!  You’ll finish class with 14 digital stamps to use again and again, a collection of beautifully colored and shaded images for your projects, and lots of Copic know-how!

Copic Craze Workshop (Self-Paced)

Copic markers have been around for a while, but they are recently popular with stampers, card makers, scrapbookers, scientific illustrators, manga artists, and many others.

The effects you can achieve with Copic markers are amazing. With any artistic tool, however, comes a need for instruction and guidance in order to move up and past the learning curve they present. If you want  to get started on the right foot and know how to choose, buy and use these wonderful markers join me for Copic Craze!

This 6-lesson class is jam packed with the facts and the fun of Copic Markers:

  • Lesson one starts with all the facts about the markers themselves, teaching you about what makes them different and exciting.
  • Lesson two and three explore how to start shading–not how to shade with your markers but how to understand the shading objects to make them look 3 dimensional in any drawing situation.
  • Lesson four looks at the colorless blender: Wait until you see what this one marker can do!
  • Lesson five has us going step-by-step through five intermediate/advanced images.
  • To finish up lesson six takes a look at all the other surfaces Copic Markers are great for.

Along the way, I’ll provide you with (9) original images for you to color along side me.
