Note: There is a creative element with working with Tombows. Sometimes it depends on stroke and pressure and with the techniques that use water, there is a certain amount of control you will have and the rest is embracing how the markers react and flow with the water. This creates an exciting and unexpected element to using the markers that should be embraced! Have fun with them!

*Additional Note* I am using Tombow markers in this class which are a dye based marker. You will likely be able to get similar results using dye based markers made by other manufacturers, I just don't personally own any other brands to test and compare with.
