Enjoy

This piece was originally done as a sample of Copic marker blending . . .

Frustrated by the fact that Copics don't really blend, I did some experimenting with the Copic Blender pen - which also doesn't really blend.  The name notwithstanding, the blender actually functions as an eraser.  If you're still with me on this, all will become clearer very shortly.

I found that if you lay down a layer from the blender pen first and then color over it with the markers, they will blend beautifully!  Go figure . . . better yet, try it out!
