Do you ever feel like recreating that mesmerizing, almost-translucent look when drawing your own pretty characters, and yet have trouble achieving the same result because you're entirely self-taught or because you don't understand how to use the tools needed?


Our teacher for the day will be Kawana. She's a creator who's also very popular on Instagram and who will demonstrate how to draw illustrations using markers, colored pencils, and other familiar-but-difficult-to-master painting tools. She also has many overseas fans and her easy-to-follow explanations (from things like magazine features and lectures at real-life events) are very well received.


In this article, we'll be using Tombow's ABT graphic markers to introduce some techniques that tend to trip up beginners, such as how to create gradients and shades, tips on how to avoid colors bleeding, and how to draw highlights to enhance texture, focusing on skin, hair, and clothing.


If you want to take your analog painting skills to the next level, or if you're just unsure of how to choose the right tools, this is definitely a read for you!
