Hey I just wanted to inform you that actually alcohol markers do bleed though but it depends on what sketchbook you get etc anyways have a nice day

[@pikarar]

@ in this notebook they dont (:

[@Grace_art-t9q]

@@pikarar oh okay cool :)

[@melanie990]

Rendr books don't bleed through either

[@lie.shhYT808]

this sounds so silly, but i appreciate the messy background. it actually showcases your artistic talent rather than a put together display.

[@pikarar]

LOL thanks, i appreciate it!

[@getxxlost]

ok this made me grab my sketchbook right here right now ok + im soooo grabbing one of those new ones 👀

[@pikarar]

@@getxxlost yes draw moreee 🥹

[@intergalacticpeachpatrol]

Ooooooooo I love how the alcohol markers look in your sketchbook! The blotchy/abstract/painterly style with the alcohol markers is SO DELICIOUS! OM NOM NOM!

[@pikarar]

@@intergalacticpeachpatrol THANKKK YOOUY

[@vahlhallan]

I am just flabberghasted by how CLEAN some of the lines are, your art is so pretty and colourful !

[@cutespooky]

The sticky note trick is so smort. I have a stack of them I didn't know what to do with too. I've just been covering up the bleed through with lots of stickers loll.

[@TonyMaynard-SD]

this looks amazing! the size of this book and the non-bleed paper makes it seem like a really nice book to work in

[@danitapia3410]

[@pikarar]

aslkjalskj THANK YOU

[@irisnguyen-rf5eo]

Your the most smooth artist I’ve ever seen. You inspire me to color in the line. I also love your doodles. Idk how but they are so smooth. I mostly love the flowers and the fishes. Random topics lead to the best in an artistic way. And I love the sketch books!❤

[@pikarar]

@@irisnguyen-rf5eo tysm!!! i rly like drawing plants and then fish is kind of random ahha. do you usually not color in the lines?

[@irisnguyen-rf5eo]

@pikarar I try but I use marker a lot and the markers have like big tips and it expands a bit, but if it’s colored pencils then yes, it’s easier to color and it’s honestly smoother in my opinion. I have a question also, you might’ve asked abt it but what marker brand do you use and why is it your favorite? If you don’t have an answer that’s okay!

[@LonelyParadiseKiss]

I would love to watch a tutorial from you! I adore your style. So glad KZbin put your video on my feed. :)

[@pikarar]

[@pikarar]

YES i always want my vids to be accessible

[@sam02yt]

I absolutely adore the way you draw you've inspired me to use a sketchbook :3

[@theyellowbeanieYT]

I really like thinking of using markers like paint. I’ve been using alcohol markers since 2019 and haven’t considered that till now. A different, but really cool way to use alcohol markers is drawing patterns and adding swatches of different colors into the base color to add really cool textures (it takes advantage of the transparency and layering of the medium).

[@pikarar]

@theyellowbeanieYT WOAHH im going to try this now!! so you’re making patterns with some white areas/negative space and then just adding colors on top?

[@theyellowbeanieYT]

@ kind of, I usually lay down a color like a skin tone and then add a few colors and patterns into that base color to create a fun and interesting texture :)

[@pikarar]

@ okay i will try this, TYY

[@leeena2492]

I love your art style, so cute!!!

[@danielle.harrison]

I love the way you use alcohol markers!

[@pikarar]

aaah thank you for the classification!

[@maceyjn]

I love your art so much! I thought it’d be cool to add that ohuhu actually started out with bullet and chisel nibs like the Bianyo markers! Brush nibs are new-ish for ohuhu!

[@pikarar]

WAIT THEY ACTUALLY HAVE THEM. they just sent me a few, i will make a vid about it!

[@maceyjn]

@ Yes!! The bullet and chisel nib set was the first set of ohuhu I ever had! When the brush set came out, I immediately bought a set and fell in love! The brush nib has the perfect amount of resistance and also softness!

[@JellowCakes]

I CAN'T WAIT TO GET MY HANDS ON ONE OF YOUR SKETCHBOOKS ! So versatile!!

I want some of your stuff so bad (and grab a little sketchbook in the process) but I'm so certain that the shipping cost will deter me 😭 (not that you're to blame at all I just can't help but cry over international shipping whenever i see something that i want aaaa so in the end this is just to say: your products and art are very lovely 😔🥰)

WAAHHH yes international does suck. where are you based, maybe my books can be at a pop up or at your local art store?
