Drawing with markers offers almost instant gratification—markers are simple to use, require little prep time and dry quickly. Because the marking material is fluid, the smooth marks are unlike those made by dry drawing mediums. Drawing with markers will offer you a range of brilliant colour that surely will excite your creativity. They’re ideal for creating loose lines, calligraphic designs and precise technical illustrations.
Here are some examples by Jaime Lee Lightle of some drawing on canvas using oil paint markers. These pieces are currently hanging at the gallery. To see more click here.
