❤❤❤❤thanks 😅😅

I really want to see more tutorials of how to use pencils with them without making the piece look out of place :( I love using markers whenever I have an extra 30 mins especially when I am just out alone having a date with myself!

I am not sure if I made it in time for the giveaway but the most exciting thing about markers is definitely the blending process for me. It's basically like coloring pencils but much better. I would love to use that feature even better in my portrait style sketches in the future.

I'm excited to learn how to use markers with colour pencils. I would like to see if they can be used to speed up backgrounds when doing portraits.

I would be excited to try them out if I win as I have never had any experience with markers and I would like to see how to use them as my first step

Markers excite me because I know I can make absolutely anything with them. The possibilities are endless! I want to try out getting more into the natural side. Drawing flowers, plants and even a whole area if possible.

The similarities they share with colored pencils are very exciting to even think about. It makes using them so much easier. I'd love to learn to use them together in more detail.

When I see my projects come to life. Initially when I started out, I would have never guessed that I could use markers to make such realistic art too. What I want to learn to do next? For this I think I want to try out a style I haven't using markers, I think my obsession with realism went a little too far. I am happy I made it in time for the giveaway, can't wait gor the announcement. Thank you.

Markers are the quickest way to add color for me. l have a lot of drawings I would like to do for teaching materials and these would probably be great. Looking forward to your comment Monday morning. Thank you.

I use it for visualizing any buildings that I imagine in a specific area - an aspiring architect 😊 It helps me out a lot and something I want to get better at is including more personalized and intricate details into the buildings even when drawing

Have you considered making another project guide for portraits? You are amazing at it and I will love to see your process using markers as this is what I am putting at the hardest of my goals using markers. Otherwise, my favourite thing to do with markers is making miniature characters and any movements based on that.

Those vibrant colours are what keep me kicking the freaking air all the time 🪅🪅 I want to learn how to get better with using contrasting colours within my art better in general with all art mediums.

markers excite me because it seems like a fun way to explore color theory as a beginner! i would love to learn how to layer colored pencils on top of markers! 😊

Markers are so easy to work with and don't even create a mess. Since I am very specific about the tidiness of my workplace, I just enjoy that fact about them a lot. I think I want to experiment more with animal drawings using any markers.

I'd be happy to know how to blend better. I am not bad it but it still remains a very big challenge for me 🙇‍♀️ I can improve with more work practice I think. I would like to ask if you have tips for me to do that? ❤️ For the first question you asked, I don't have a specific reason, I just love using them for making a lot of things.

The collecting part! That is so fun and exciting because unlike paints I can get sets which are equivalent in price to buying high quality primaries of acrylics for me. I would like it if Ohuhu can try out refills as well because I love their markers. When I run out of one in a bigger set, I feel pretty sad if I have no justifications to buy it again.

Paper depends on project for me. Smooth bristol. Hot press w/c, pastelmat, love pastelgrain and uart. Have some new to me papers under the bed to try later.

I wish I could draw like you this was beautiful to watch

I get so excited whenever I am able to transition into different colors and make it look very smooth! It makes me so happy 🥰🥰 But I don't see myself using many new techniques. I keep on sticking to my old ways. I would definitely like to change that.

This is excitedly new to me! I will certainly explore using these and add some to my arsenal of art supplies! Pick me!😉

I love markers because my sketchbooks are mainly filled due to them since I can use them at any time. I cant create much more thanks to them! Would love to see more marker tutoriols and tips on how to learn the harder art fundamentals with this medium. I used to be so fixed to watercolors so now coming back to markers feel like such a great joy!

The thing that excites me more and more everytime I use markers is the fact that it actually does help me in becoming more creative. I tend to have new and better ideas thr next time I plan a painting using them. I want to challenge myself soon to try making an A3 architectural illustration using markers but I still need to plan out the dimensions for that.

Lana, all of your videos are so amazing. You truly have a unique ability to teach and introduce concepts in an easy way to understand. I have never worked with markers but in this video you have definitely peaked my interest. I like the idea that they are a little quicker to create with than colored pencils. I can’t believe how much I have learned since starting to work with you and the more I dive into our curriculum and your KZbin channel the more excited I get to further develop my skills.

Thank you for sharing this!! It’s amazing how easy , it looked, to complete this project! Markers would make creating art a lot faster and smoother.

NO WAY! I have heard so much about the Ohuhu Alcholo Markers but haven't had the chance to pick them up yet. I have seen so many videos on them. The thing that I really love is how well they blend together! Not to mwntion on this markar pad, you must have had a blast drawing this tasty hamburger! I would like to get better at understanding the colour theory and probably going to check out some courses next week. On the obvious mixtures, I am pretty good. However, as soon as I start using new colours that I am not familiar with, it gets hard for me to figure out what to do next. 😞 THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY! 🎉

Personally, I have never tried any kind of markers before so I would be very excited to use Ohuhu markers as my first few. I would love to learn how to create beautiful art with them just as you do.

I really love how full of pigment and vibrant all the colors of markers are. 🤗 We can make so many things with them and it looks so good! Can you make a video about using only markers and colored pencils together? 🙏 That's on the list of things I really want to do. Thank you for the giveaway! ❤️❤️

Lana - I’ve now bought a set of these pencils and want to use them with the Meltz in a colouring book. Would you put a layer of gesso down first?

This video is a joke... please there are Free Classes

Although you have told us to build up from light base colors, have you ever encountered situations where the opposite actually works better? As for what excites me when I think about markers, it is the ability to move on to the next illustration as soon as you finish one (the one thing that tests my patience when painting and waiting for it to dry over and over again). Not too long ago, I saw someone applying a brush colour on a colourless blender to make a new shade. I want to know how to do that without making a permanent mess out of the blender. This reminds to go finish that video too!

the fact that I can easily layer the colors without them becoming muddled is something I absolutely love and appreciate with all my heart! I would love to learn different techniques that can be employed with alcohol makers! Is the giveaway international?

Mistakes can easily be mended, well at least in my case, when using markers so it makes me feel better knowing that something that may seem off can be altered to the way I want it. The upper part of the bun in this video is quite literally the example of that. I really am looking forward to the day that I can save up to buy the largest set or all the different sets offered for markers 💗💗

How long did it take for you to learn to do portraits using markers? Why specifically do you think it's better to start out drawing food for someone new to markers? I'm sorry for bombarding you with questions all at once. I have used markers but only to make my journal spreads look nicer. I am excited to actually learn how to draw using markers and not just to decorate my pages. I want to be able to make a drawing with reference easily just like you did. I have never been confident about it like that.

The progress throughout the years is what makes me so happy qnd excited to keep using this medium. I am also glad more affordable options such as Ohuhu starting making their own marker sets making it more accessible and I could get even more colours in the same price. Something I would like to do with them is trying to use all colours in a specific set in one piece of illustration.

What excites me about markers is that they can be used to make quick sketches when I am out and about. I like recording my memories in this way. I would love to learn how to add even more details in less amount of time (while travelling) to make my markers' art even better.

Alcohol markers are a great medium for anyone to start out with. Just like me 😝 They seemed less daunting then starting out with different types of paints. What made me the happiest was the fact that I could work over my first few colour additions right away unlike watercolours sadly that's something so confusing for me. I would love to see if different types of markers can work well with each other and make something like that. For example, taking an acrylic paint marker and trying to use it with an alcohol marker. I don't have much experience in this area but I have been constantly been thinking of trying this out whether it works out or not.

I have a question about color theory course. As it was meant for coloring pencils, is there some differences you would like to give some reminders or tips on? I have a big flaw which is that I tend to aometimes rigidly follow courses so this will helpful. I enjoy using markers just because how it helps me to relax and still end up making some cool drawnings. The thing that I think I still have to improve is understanding the blending and layering process better.

I really appreciate all these 13 tips as I am planning to get a bundle myself. I want to try out the pastels one. I am excited to try them out because some of the techniques that may take longer with pencils are so quick with markers according to what I have seen. Can't wait to see if it is actually true! Thank you for this opportunity. As for something I want to do next with markers, it doesn't really apply to a beginner like me. So, more appropriately, the first goal I have is to fill up my mini sketchbook with marker drawings this first half of the year.

I LOVE markers! I like building up to make the whole drawing layer by layer. Seeing the progress that way is the most exciting thing for me! I would love to see you do portraits using markers as that's something I would like to learn from as this one was actually helpful for me.

These are awesome colored pencils. I feel that Faber Castell Polychromos pencils are better than these two, but that's my opinion. But I love how Caran D'ache's Luminance and Pablo set work so well with each other. Same with Derwent and Faber Castell and their sets. I will be getting the Caran D'ache and Derwent colored pencils soon. Got to have the holy trinity of colored pencils 😏

Hi Lana, This question is unrelated to markers, but I thought since it was your most recent video, you may see it quicker. Do you still offer your Classical Colored Pencil course (not sure of exact name)? I didn't see it on your website. Do you offer any course on using colored pencils with sanded paper?

Markers are so different from other media, it's hard to explain. If they can be used in any way with gelli plate printing, I'd like to know, as i have just bought my first gelli plates.

Markers excite me because they are such a solid on-the-go art medium. I can literally draw wherever I go (of course I don't carry all the colours with me, that would be crazy). I really want to see myself making more realistic art with markers next. I've noticed I avoid doing this quite a lot.

Alcohol marker excite me cause it was fast and blend so well, like you said in the vidio. I tried my friend's for my architecture assignment and it was great!!. I really want to see my architectural designs using alcohol markers again, that would be great❤. You explain it in an easy to understand, I really want to try it with colored pencils🥰, Even if I don't win the giveaway I'm thankful I found this video and your account😭🫶🫶.

I love how satisfying it feels to use them while making anything. Something that may feel a mistake earlier on can be easily adjusted. In some ways I think they're a very close member to watercolours but still completely different. I will be very happy to see illustrations using very bold colours in a certain popping setting such as the night life. I really have no idea of what I am trying to say but I think you might have already gotten it? Hopefully 🙏

The result is so beautiful 🥰

Do you think it would perform just as well on mixed media sketchbooks because I have too many right now and I want to go through them before investing in a new marker pad. Markers get me really pumped to draw some samples since there's no hurdle in between to make me procrastinate. I look forward to making more art with different types of markers, whether they are paint markers or alcohol markers.
