Get Messy – Experimenting with Pen + Ink
This past week Get Messy launched a new online course – Pen + Ink.

I started out by doing a lot of loose doodles and designs on mixed media paper. For markers I am using Tombow Dual Brush Pens and Tombow TwinTones.
I don’t have the same ink that Julia used in her class, but I used ImagineCrafts All Purpose Inks (meant for fabric I think?) and they seem to be working okay for these techniques!









I decided to make a mini journal dedicated just for these techniques so that I could work on making art journals pages with them, so I am using a notebook by Amy Tangerine for that.
The first couple of pages aren’t my normal style, but I still love them. After those I started trying to work Julia’s whimsical style in with my own style.










The best part about this class is that while Julia shows you some really amazing techniques combining markers and ink, she also doesn’t tell you exactly what you must do, she encourages you to experiment with your supplies! So it’s really fun.
This class is perfect for anyone who wants to learn a technique but especially perfect if you’ve been in a creative rut and you want something new.
You can learn more + sign up here to start making some technicolor magic. 😉
