Supplies needed:
Hot-pressed watercolor paper tile. I use 4x4 inches Fabriano or Arches.
A honey-colored water-soluble marker. I use Tombow 026 Yellow Gold, but you can also use Tim Holtz Distress Marker Wild Honey.
White Prismacolor wax based pencil. The wax-based pencil acts as a blender over other pencils.
Sanguine colored pencil. This is a light rust-orange colored pencil. I use Faber Castell Polychromos.
Colored pencils in various colors
A water brush or paintbrush.
A brown inking pen — not water soluble. I use brown Micron from Sakura.
Graphite pencil. My favorite is the Staedtler Mars F pencil.
