Friday Art Links & Certification

Time for some more art links and a few other updates. Let me know if you find something neat and want to share it with the blogging world.

Copic Marker News Blog- This is different than my I Like Markers blog. You can see photos of our trade-show booths and get other neat information from Copic.

Trev Murphy - This is an incredible illustrator who has posted some fabulous videos on how he uses Copic Markers for ATC portraits. Definitely worth watching, even if you don't consider yourself an artist.

'skine art - Celebrating Moleskine lovers and their art. If you haven't tried a moleskine, they are a fine journal/sketchbook that has been around for centuries. The paper is fabulous! check out these illustrations and sketches for inspiration

Mostly Markers- Cindy Overmeyer has done a fabulous job of uploading her artwork, so poke around and leave some comments. There's some great stuff here!

We at Copic will only be attending the first half of the show, however, if you are going to the CHA Craft Supershow July 31- August 1st in Orlando, FL be sure to look for demos using Copic Markers. I know of at least a dozen going on throughout the show, as well as workshops, so look for those.
