Introduction
This is my first attempt at using marker pens. This is my practice sketch and I think I need even more practice.

Supplies
I'm using cartidge paper (don't know what the weight is), and Letraset Promarkers that are a bit dried up.
Practice Piece
I've tried drawing and sketching many times and have failed miserably. But this time, I think I might improve.
Step One
This is the first step for me, using Promarkers. But I am limited to the number of colours I have, and limted by the fact that they are drying up through lack of use - lack of use because I never knew what to do with them until doing this course. I've started off with the initial shape of the two buildings.

Step Two
I know I need to practice more, but there is a slight improvement. This is a more confident drawing of the two buildings.

Step Three
It's imroving! Things are looking up! Even I am thinking this is starting to look good.

Step Four
Result! I finally feel like I've achieved something! I can hardly believe I've done this!

And Now ....
I felt confident enough to do this little shed - but I've tried watercolours instead of markers. I think I am liking marker pens more.

Docent PlusJe komt er echt wel met je markergebruik Denise!! Ik vind de laatste die je met markers hebt gemaakt erg mooi. Ook mooi gemengd! Ik vind je lijnwerk ook geweldig. Een tip is om een extra marker in een donkerder en minder verzadigd bereik te nemen (misschien een koele grijze 6 of 7 om contrast toe te voegen. Maar je hebt dit zeker te pakken!! Goed gedaan! 🍀👍🏻
