Alcohol Marker Rainy Days PreClass

This is an intermediate course, therefore supplies for the Alcohol Marker Jumpstart class are assumed. Most of the colors you have from that are likely fine to adapt from for this course, but the full list of colors used in the lessons is below. 

 

(This Pre-class lesson has no vides; the FREE Pre-class lesson for AMJS has more basic info on markers including some very helpful videos.)  

Before we start…a little housekeeping

I retain the copyright to the content you are learning in class. That means…

  1. Do not sell or give away the concepts from my classes – you may not re-teach my instruction contained or created within these lessons.
  2. Do not post a video tutorial or step by step photo tutorial of your own redraw of class content.
  3. Do not repost any handouts you receive in class.

However…I love to see students making strides and taking this teaching and personalizing it with your own skills.

  1. DO make your own designs and develop your own style! I love that!
  2. DO gift your creations made with these techniques, of course!

At the bottom of each lesson you’ll see some ways to share your homework and ask questions, so that’ll be handy for you.
