Coloring Materials & Techniques
Experiment with different mark making methods with different art supplies.
Think of your craftsmanship, or you being in control of the material. Every mark has a purpose. You are not scribbling.
Spend some time experimenting. When you feel confident, draw a character of your choice and color it in using one or more of the new techniques from the video. Push yourself and show some value in your character, or moving light to dark to make your image look more 3D.
