The club I belonged to first is the Fun Fab Drawing Club. My intention was to up my drawing skill, but I learned much more. Through the club I learned to use new supplies and techniques. Which is also true of the other two clubs.
I drew this "Beauty," using a Graphgear 1000 Pentel Pencil on a sheet of 9"x12" Strathmore Bristol Paper. The coloring medium was for alcohol markers. I have lots of Copic Markers, one draw back is, they are old and I haven't replaced so many of the inks or parts. The second draw back is, Karen uses Ohuhu Markers. Yes, I can substitute, but then I would need to invest in parts and ink for the Copic Markers. My decision was to buy the Skin Tone Set of 36 Ohuhu Markers. I ordered the set early in March, but it was nearly the end of the month before they arrived. It was hard to wait...Once I saw "Beauty" I wanted to start working on her. I worked on her the day after the markers arrived and boy am I happy with that decision.
Additional supplies used for "Beauty" include: Prismacolor Pencils, Molotow Blackliners and white Gelly Roll Pen.
There will be more tutorials to use these new Ohuhu Markers. I'm glad I could also use what I have.

I've been taking classes at Karen's FFDC for the past fortnight and have really enjoyed myself and improved by art skills too. It was because YOU mentioned her that I went off to peek at her details . . . then enrolled for a month. So THANK YOU for mentioning her.
