STARRY NIGHT TUTORIAL:
For optimal results, Vermailene recommends the following materials (shopping links are listed at the bottom of this post for your convenience):
Coloring page printed on watercolor paper
Zig Kuretake Clean Color Brush Pens
Zig Detailer Watercolor Brush
Uni-ball Broad Point White Gel Pen
Uni-ball Fine Point White Gel Pen
Step 1: Surround the flowers with the black marker.
Step 2: Apply another color next to the black marker. In this instance, Vermailene used red.
Step 3: Continue to build the colors. For this example, color in with pink then yellow.
Step 4: Mix the colors with the water brush.
Step 5: Use the white broad and smaller tip gel pens for the stars. “Dot” the stars all over and even add some sparkly ones like what Vermailene did in the example.
