Marker pens and how they react on different papers.

Hi Folks.

Here is my latest experiment with my art supplies.  It came about when I posted a comment on this video done by Stacey Fell, who is an up and coming artist who posts youtube videos of her work, well worth a watch.  I gave some hints and tips about using marker pens.  I am no expert but I have been experimenting a bit with trying to use markers correctly.  I have referred to a book called Drawing and painting beautiful faces (mixed media girls) by Jane Davenport. She has a really good step by step guide on how to use marker pens.  Although Jane uses copic markers and I only have promarkers / flex markers, the technique remains the same.  If this is of interest to you, why not click on the link below and watch my video on how marker pens react on different papers.  I have used ordinary card stock, printer paper and both sides of special marker paper by daler rowney. I hope you enjoy this video.  Please feel free to leave any comments.  Perhaps suggestions of what my next video could be.
