thank you for teaching. i wont care if its related to cola or whisky. the purpose is to demonstate how to master the use of marker and colored pencil. then make it a realistic painting. thx for providing free resouces. sorry for encountering shallow people who forget a word called gratitude.
I already use markers and colored pencils for drawing but have been having some troubles recently with my technique and this video really helped me bring myself back to the basics and remember how to use colors and view reference images. Even when you are an experienced artist it’s still good to watch tutorial videos and relearn some things you already know to make your art even better.
I'm studying with Matt and he has so much on his site to learn. Wow !!! sometimes I'm bursting with so much I wanna do 😉 I'm doing his portrait course and anything of interest in between, well that's the plan, I decide what I want to do, then boom !! something else I want to do, I'm worn our just thinking 😉
choochoochooseyou the idea is that if you only use darker and darker versions of the same tone, it will eventually look very monotone and muddy. Choosing a dark version of a different color still within the original colors spectrum ( I.e. Warm colors with warm, cool colors with cool) it will enhance the color and maki it much more vibrant.
Absolutely amazing! Thank you for sharing this!! I’ve been doing paintings using acrylics and oils. I love it but now I want to try something different and just ordered my prismacolor pencils last night but will order markers very soon and that cannot wait!
great video! what paper do you use? I'm using Winsor and Newton bleedproof paper but I don't like the effect of the colored pencils on it, they becomes "shiny"
This is a great tutorial. It would be cool in future tutorials if you would include the reference material so I could see the colors you’re building up to as your creating them. Thanks so much for this info! 🙏🙏🙏
Disco Prime Thanks for the response. Sorry, lol maybe I'm a bit slow but when you said "yeah" was it yes, water-based will damage the tooth? Or yes, I can also use water-based markers? I do art work too. If you're on instagram, feel free to check it out (@j.elle.allen). I use colored pencils and want to begin incorporating markers but need more knowledge and practice first.
I was wondering this too, about image transfer and indentations, so thanks for the answer :) I've also seen people deliberately putting indentations into their paper (eg with the end of a skewer, to create a textured look of 'white spots' on an apple, for example - once the 'indented dots' are there for texture and highlights of sorts,, the pencil tends to glide over the top of it and the white of the paper is left - another great one is for creating the thin veins of a leaf without 'messing' them up - eg - create the general outline of the leaf on your main drawing paper; ..... have a separate piece of paper with the graphite lines of the leaf veins drawn on it separately, .......then place it over your main drawing and trace over it with an 'embossing tool/skewer; not sharp!) gently, ...... so when one does an 'underpainting (and then layering), the 'indented' veins are left as the original colour of the paper (is this what they would call 'negative' type of drawing?) I guess this is easier rather than painstakingly drawing each vein into the leaf and then carefully avoiding ruining them whilst colouring or shading/tinting - one can just run the pencil(s) over them - I thought that was pretty cool anyway - lots of you probably already know this, but was a great tip when saw it -and applicable to many things .... and i can't believe i had forgotten my childhood days of scribbling over a paper, when drawing, and placing a 'raised pattern (even the corners of paper, or a coin) underneath my paper, and the coin, or pattern underneath would emerge as the pencil/crayon was glided (scribbled) over the paper - ooooooo, such fun!!!! lol! ...... Similar type of principle (though in this case, not indenting the paper (actually 'raising it from beneath) So - I guess that unintended indentations, whilst generally to be avoided - can be very useful too (if intended) - I'm still learning (or re-learning, after a long break away from drawing and gosh, I've learned so much up here!! Fantastic teacher and course - saw it on UDEMY too - and thinking thinking about it! Had already enrolled in another drawing course though before i saw yours - but this one looks very comprehensive and I did enroll in the coloured pencil course, very exciting! ... (and will visitg your website again too (seen the free gouche painting part of the watercolor course, was great!) ..... and yes, I know, I'm rambling LOL, sorry! Just getting very excited - I LOVE learning and seeing something appearing to be 'created' from nothing ....... So again, thank you - people like you, 'The Virtual Instructor' and many others up here, you give so much!
Shadow nightmare those are prisma color pencils and copic markers the pencils are relatively inexpensive but the markers are pricey as shit you can get them both on amazon or micheals or most art and craft stores
The markers are not Copic Markers; Copic markers have an oval shaped barrel and are a light grey plastic. Those markers are Prismacolor Premier Artist Markers. Prismacolor markers are not cheap by any means but they are not as pricey as Copic Markers. The awesome thing about Prismacolor markers is they match their illustration markers and Prismacolor Premier, Verithin and watercolor pencils. It is an awesome color system with great consistency of color across the entire range of products. You can get all of these products a lot of places but I have found the best prices, selection and customer service from Blick Art. No, I do not work for Prismacolor or Blick and Iam no expert; I am only hoping to be helpful. The person who trolled out that disgusting tasteless comment after Doodle Hood also needs some help but I can only do so much here. SMH P.S. Matt is also using Prismacolor Premier colored pencils on this and possibly their Verithin colored pencils for the tight detail, such as the highlights.
Sharpies are alchohol based like Prismacolor (the markers Matt uses in this lesson), Copic and several other brands. The main issue would be color matching.
I have all the PC markers accept the grays. For grays I have a set of Copics from N0-N8 and a set of Winsor & Newton from Cool Gray 1 - Cool Gray 5. I don't know if any of you are familiar with these markers, but I know the Copic N markers are supposed to be neutral, but they seem like they are cooler than the W&N cool grays. I'm going to attempt this drawing and even though it's probably going to come out looking like a cheeseburger or t-bone steak instead of a drink, I would like to at least try to use the correct colors, does anyone know which one's would work better for this or if it even matters? Probably doesn't matter for me. Yeah, nevermind, definitely doesn't matter, I'll go with the Copics, I like the way they blend more.
If you have more money go for copics but they tend to be more expensive, winsor newtom promarkers are good and prismacolor markers are used on the video
Prismacolor markers and colored pencils. Check out Matt's courses; he is a great teacher and a gifted artist. I learned more from him in 6 months than I have learned everywhere else over a lifetime!
*PLEASE HELP* When i use colored pencils over the markers, i can't seem to get white to show. The same with the lighter colored pencils over the darker markers. It just doesn't come through like these videos. Is there something i'm doing wrong? I'm using alcohol markers as the base. Then using the colored pencils on top. The pencils just don't stand out or come through at all. Please help me... i could really appreciate any input.
I think you cant use marker more dark than pencil because are much 'power' try use marker more lighter and then use colored pencil (Sorry for the mistake)
@@andreagualtiero5567 Thank you for replying to my question. I've watched videos where they use lighter color pencils over the darker markers and they still show. I wasn't sure if they use a specific kind of colored pencils over markers. Maybe oil based or something. Maybe the kind i'm using just aren't the right kind?
@@merisonola i use Faber castell,if you put marker beneath them you can see the pencils but not as much as using the pencil over a blank sheet because they mix together
It depends on how saturated your colored pencils are with pigments, and how much alcohol marker you lay down on the paper. If you can, get a few c'aran dache colored pencils (few greys, white and dark colors). If it's still not showing up try adding pastels lightly to your drawing or using blender marker and a paper underneath to desaturate the already colored portion of the paper, the paper underneath will absorb the pigment and making your drawing lighter.
If this was meant to be a drawing of cola, as you kept referring to the drink as cola, then why are there no bubbles of carbonation..? When I first saw the thumbnail, I thought it was a drawing of some sort of liquor/alcohol.

Its cup of tea ! 🙂

Even when you are an experienced artist it’s still good to watch tutorial videos and relearn some things you already know to make your art even better.
Mine came out just like the video. It was a LOT of work. But, it was fun!
That’s really impressive, even if you’re following a step by step. I hope you’re still making artwork, cause it sounds like you’ve got the skill!
*says exactly how he drew it *
Me: HOW DID YOU DO THAT
Lmaooo
I would be terrified to add blue at that point in the drawing. Always fun watching you work, sir.
Wow! That's amazing! Thanks for showing us how it's done!
Never thought of using coloured pencil on marker. Very interesting
I'm studying with Matt and he has so much on his site to learn.
Wow !!! sometimes I'm bursting with so much I wanna do 😉
I'm doing his portrait course and anything of interest in between, well that's the plan, I decide what I want to do, then boom !! something else I want to do, I'm worn our just thinking 😉
You have such steady hands!! I won't ever be able to draw curved lines that slowly!!
Great tutorial. One thing that confuses me when using colours, how do I know when to use a seemingly non-related colour? As you did when adding blue.
choochoochooseyou the idea is that if you only use darker and darker versions of the same tone, it will eventually look very monotone and muddy. Choosing a dark version of a different color still within the original colors spectrum ( I.e. Warm colors with warm, cool colors with cool) it will enhance the color and maki it much more vibrant.
choochoochooseyou color wheel works wonders for what goes together and what doesn’t
Never thought of using colored pencil on this kind of paper. Can't wait to try.
Absolutely amazing! Thank you for sharing this!! I’ve been doing paintings using acrylics and oils. I love it but now I want to try something different and just ordered my prismacolor pencils last night but will order markers very soon and that cannot wait!
Wow you really can draw EVERYTHING 👍👍👍 I love it !

Question: Why use alcohol based markers under colored pencils? Can I use water-based? Will water-based damage the tooth of the paper?
Jay Girl yea
Disco Prime Thanks for the response. Sorry, lol maybe I'm a bit slow but when you said "yeah" was it yes, water-based will damage the tooth? Or yes, I can also use water-based markers?
I do art work too. If you're on instagram, feel free to check it out (@j.elle.allen). I use colored pencils and want to begin incorporating markers but need more knowledge and practice first.
i do art too but i am a beginer...the yes which i said stands for-yes it will do damage the parer n alcohol based wont.
Many coloured pencil artists use watercolour as a base layer before adding the pencils on top. Just have to make sure you are using the right paper
Awesome!! :)

Can someone tell me wat prisma colours are used numbers???
Do you need to use alcohol markets or can you use any kind?
May I know, Which brands you are using here?
If you push to hard when you transfer your image to paper and it leaves some indentions in some places are there any way to get them out?
Hi Debbie, Unfortunately not. You must be very careful when transferring to prevent this.
I was wondering this too, about image transfer and indentations, so thanks for the answer :) I've also seen people deliberately putting indentations into their paper (eg with the end of a skewer, to create a textured look of 'white spots' on an apple, for example - once the 'indented dots' are there for texture and highlights of sorts,, the pencil tends to glide over the top of it and the white of the paper is left
- another great one is for creating the thin veins of a leaf without 'messing' them up - eg - create the general outline of the leaf on your main drawing paper; ..... have a separate piece of paper with the graphite lines of the leaf veins drawn on it separately, .......then place it over your main drawing and trace over it with an 'embossing tool/skewer; not sharp!) gently, ...... so when one does an 'underpainting (and then layering), the 'indented' veins are left as the original colour of the paper (is this what they would call 'negative' type of drawing?)

and i can't believe i had forgotten my childhood days of scribbling over a paper, when drawing, and placing a 'raised pattern (even the corners of paper, or a coin) underneath my paper, and the coin, or pattern underneath would emerge as the pencil/crayon was glided (scribbled) over the paper - ooooooo, such fun!!!! lol! ...... Similar type of principle (though in this case, not indenting the paper (actually 'raising it from beneath)
So - I guess that unintended indentations, whilst generally to be avoided - can be very useful too (if intended) - I'm still learning (or re-learning, after a long break away from drawing and gosh, I've learned so much up here!!

Would this work with sharpies and prismas?

Does anyone know what shades this would be for ohuhu markers ?
What can I use if I don't have a blender? Are the ones used for charcoal good for this?
It will be hard to blend them, try using cotton buds and mineral oil. Alcohol isn't recommended as it will dillute the alcohol marker's color there
what kind of markers are these?
Hi Jonathon, The are Prismacolor Premiere markers.
Thanks!
Hi,i have never used alcohol based markers, i am confused which ones to go for, plz suggest
If you have more money go for copics but they tend to be more expensive, winsor newtom promarkers are good and prismacolor markers are used on the video
Cola? I thought it was whisky 😂
It’s a flat cola, it would have bubbles if there were any carbonation in it. 😁😂
Does sharpie markers work?
But what kind of markers and pencils are they??
Prismacolor markers and colored pencils.

How come you never answer my question? Your gonna start loosing people.
Is it okay to use a vellum board/poster paper for marker renderings?
It is okay, but the teeth would be troubling when you add the marker, it would be harder to blend and bleeding could happen
