I moved my second video for this week to today since we have a holiday weekend ahead, I’m gonna take a few days off. Tomorrow I should still have the first lesson of Copic Enchantment ready for those who signed up early!
If you’ve been wondering how to get started, what you need for supplies, and some intros to color choices and blending, you’re in the right place!

I would love the water color pencils
Hello,
I would love the water color pencils.
Happy Spring to Everyone
Sandy, I’m a huge fan and grateful customer. And I’m thoroughly enjoying these types of posts. Thank you! I do have a quick question – your link/post for DOUBLE COLORED PENCIL SHARPENING FOR A SUPERFINE POINT seems to have disappeared. I tried searching for it on your site to no avail. Is it available anywhere?
Thank you again for all your sharing and generosity!
Oh phoo. I juggled posts around and forgot about that puppy! Here’s the video: https://youtu.be/RmgQcIfgWBw
