Well, I'm so excited because I got to take a Copic Marker Certification class yesterday. My friends were teasing me because I spent all day learning how to color with markers, and I paid money to do it! But really, that's what I did and it was worth it in so many ways! Plus, isn't it fun to sit down and color!?
I went home so inspired and I wanted to play with the multiliner professional drafting pen they gave us so I picked up an old botched attempt at an ATC and "fixed" it up! Face stamp is by Club Stamp and I think the sentiment is from Stampin' up. The tiny text is just some drivel I wrote: "Do robots dream of electric sheep? Do sheep dream of dancing humans? Will humans learn to get along with each other? Are we human or are we dancer? Are dolphins smarter than yuppies? What is the meaning of life the universe and everything? Will you dance with me in the clouds? What does a cat really think about while asleep? Do they debate philosophy with each other or do they think they are the center of the universe and the rest of us really don't matter?"
The background of the ATC and the face details are enhanced with some Copic markers. I like how it highlighted his face and really made the pattern on the paper stand out. I wish I had taken a "before" picture so you could see how it changed.

That sounds so cool! I haven't gotten on the copic wagon yet, but everyone raves about them, so I'm very tempted. Great artwork!
Beautiful writing and doodle time in addition to coloring! Fun piece of work! TFS!...Jan

Hi, Lianne! The Copic Certification class sounds like soooooo much fun! I hope you had a blast! The ATC looks great, too! :-)
This is fabulous! I'm thinking it's Keri Smith who art journals using coptics, and this ATC remains me of her work. TFS!
I so want to take one of those classes so I totally understand! What a great creation you posted.
This is great Lianne - love your philosophical questions, very existential :) How fun to do a copics class like that, very cool, and now you're certified!! Bravo!
Gorgeous! I'm hoping to take the copic class in April. Good to know it was worthwhile.
