I love soft auras around images colored with copic markers. It took me some trial and error and a bit of practice before I was able to get my own looking half decent! I want to share how I achieve the effect without an airbrush. I hope you enjoy the tutorial today!
Copic colors used: BG000, BG10, 0 colorless blender-make sure it is wet!
6. Use your wet blender pen to feather INTO the sky color. Begin by touching the brush end flat against the cardstock and feather (or swoop) upward into the sky area. Do not pull the blender all the way to the image edge or close to your second color layer. It is important to begin outside the colored area as the blender pen is removing color as you swoop inward and therefore ‘blending’ it into your first layers of sky color.
B000 and B00- bright blue sky
B91 and B21- duller light blue
C0 and B91- cloudy gray sky
Y000 and Y11- bright sunny
YR000 and Y00 or Y11- peachy warm sky before sunset
(pull the yellow out farther over the YR000)
C0 or C1 and BV20- dusky gray like before a snowstorm
