💛 cheap markers 💛

Have I mentioned recently how much I love my cheap markers? This shade of yellow smells like banana. (There's also "buttered popcorn" and "pineapple" shades of yellow. How often do cheap markers give you three shades of yellow?)



All of the artists I watch on YouTube love alcohol markers and they are great for nuanced shading, but they are so expensive compared to the cheap kiddie markers and I'm honestly not a nuanced artist to begin with. The quick blocky shades you get from these suit me just fine.

I'm still on the head & face theme for this sketchbook, but it looks like I've only done four pages this month. Maybe I can give myself a goal of one page a day in September?
