This is how I draw simple TREES with marker pens
In gthis video I demonstrate how to draw a simple tree using marker pens. I start the video with a view of the pens I will be using through the video. The techniques I use are simple to replicate yourself, if you have any questions please let me know.
As always thanks for watching!
These are the art materials I mostly use in my videos and will continue to use in the future.
Specific to this video are the following pens:
Winsor & Newton Promarker -0948 Mustard 0345 Saddle Brown
Copic - G24 Willow YG67 Moss G29 Pine Tree Green C7
Posca - White 0.7
StaeDTLER - Pigment Liner 0.3
I use fineliner pens for most of my drawings. I recommend using the Staedtler as they last the longest, you can get them here:
amzn.to/47Qmmd8
Watercolour paints I use most often:
Rosa watercolour set.
amzn.to/4bZigCK
I use copic sketch markers for most of my shading and colouring. You can buy sets of these or individual pens this is the closest match I could find as a set:
COPIC WARM GREYS SET
amzn.to/4aIapZR
Cool GREY SET:
amzn.to/48siE9S
COPIC GREENS SET
amzn.to/48n5ufk

    What a find! A brilliant way to divide up the human body for practical sketching purposes. I love the fact that you can practise this in lots of different ways. THANK YOU! Plus i like this jazz soundtrack. It all helps to be more relaxed when approaching the awesomeness of the human form!

    Thank you! This is very helpful. One thing I do not understand though, in the photo at the end of the video, the guy in the orange shirt is closer than the others, but his head is not on the same horizon line as those further away. And then there is the child in blue also not on the horizon line. Perhaps there is a range and as long as a head is within it the perspective is correct? Thanks again for the useful video.

    • @finelinesillustrations
      @finelinesillustrations 9 днів тому

      Hi Gary, thank you for your comment. You’re right indeed. My understanding is that the horizon line is slightly lower in the photo. With all the heads of people on the horizon line you are viewing the subject at eye level. This is a rule of thumb. Children as they tend to shorter can below the horizon line. Hope this helps?

      Hi, thanks for your interest. For markers there is specific paper. I’ve used Canson marker paper before. (It’s got a pink cover) there are other brands, Copic do one too. I found that the paper is rather thin so like to use a thicker mixed media paper. Again Canson x mixed media (blue cover). I like the smooth one. Hope this helps? Thanks for watching. 😀

    Thanks for watching. I would love to hear your thoughts. My initial thougt is that its best to start the colouring with a light colour. Then you can build the layers getting darker to build contrast to your drawing. Hope this inspires somone to pick up a marker and give it a go. Would love to see your pictures!!!?

    • @finelinesillustrations
      @finelinesillustrations 5 місяців тому

      Hi Ross, Thanks for your comment. It's a tough one as there are so many marker pens out there. I tend to use alcohol based pens from probably the two most popular brands Copic and W&N. Both are very good pens Copic do have a refillable pen so you can buy top ups of your favorite ink. W&N are disposable. The trick with these pens is to work from light to dark. So if picking indervidual pens try selecting a light, medium and dark of the colour you'd like to sketch in. I have a few options listed in the description that you might find useful. Hope that's not too much of an information overload. let me know how you get on. 😃
