How to Draw & Shade a Face with TOMBOW Dual Brush Pens & Water!

Today is my 44th birthday!!! Hollaaaaaaa!!! And in today's mixed media art tutorial for beginners I'm going to show you exactly How to Shade a Face with TOMBOW Dual Brush Pens & Water!
If you're self-isolating today, come hang out #withme!!!! I will teach you how to draw and shade a face with marker and water! I'm using a grayscale set of markers for this Tombow dual brush pen tutorial because I love the effects I can get when I add water with a paintbrush. If you don't have these- just use whatever watersoluble markers you have at home already. Or- grab a pencil or some colored pencils and skip the part with water. Press play and let's draw!!

Wow!! had to put you on pause. I fell down the rabbit hole testing out all my markers to see if they are water soluble. I'm back and ready to help you celebrate your birthday. The only problem now is that I have to sketch and paint with my fingers crossed because I am hoping to be a winner. Happy birthday and thank you for entertaining me on this drippy California day.

This is so awesome, Sherry!!!! Thank you for the birthday wish!!!

[@brendacollinsdeeks7268]

You look soooo young for your age! Happy birthday and thank you for letting us hang with you on your special day.

Thanks so much for doing this face series. I am really enjoying it.

[@jeannemartens4210]

Happy 44th Birthday! Thank you for the awesome video!! I know your birthday will be better than mine as you’re surrounded by family and a good neighbor that’s considered family. I just lost my Dad in January (mom 30 years prior), father in law passed a 10 days before my dad. and our daughter is grown so at least I got a phone call from her. I’ve never felt so alone before now. Sorry, I didn’t mean to be a Debbie Downer, I think your new book can’t come soon enough for those of us who are really struggling and it’s an outstanding project, one that I hope to be a part of it somehow.

[@KarenCampbellArtist]

Thank you, Jean!!! I'm sorry, that is a lot of loss. I wish you comfort in this difficult time, it's hard to be alone, but know that you have me and this awesome art community and we will all get through this time together.
