Copic Certification

On Friday, August 8, 2014, a friend (Wendy Cox) and I received our Copic Certification.  It was a busy day of fun.  We had an amazing time learning from Lori Craig.  We had a medium size class, which made it wonderful to ask as many questions we needed too.  Many of the ladies shared blog information and ideas of different projects they have used their Copic Markers on.

Thank you Lori Craig for teaching use the details listed below:
  • Foundations
  • Coloring
  • Colorless Blending
  • Product Compatibility
  • Mixing Mediums
  • Airbrushing
The details of the class was very informative and will be helpful as I continue to work with my Copic Markers and see what opportunities that it opens for me.
