Lightening Color<br />

This can be achieved by first coating your work surface with a generous layer of colorless Blender. Then quickly (before the Blender<br />

dries) apply color over the top. The pre-applied Blender will have the effect of dropping back the overlaid color, resulting in a more<br />

subtle effect.<br />

Also, try using a Vellum type paper. This<br />

will have a very smooth surface, with<br />

low absorption – this can be useful for<br />

producing softer, less intense colors.<br />

Another technique is to work on tracing<br />

paper – do this by selectively applying<br />

color to the reverse only. Color applied in<br />

this way will naturally show through to the<br />

front for a translucent appearance.<br />

Graduating Color<br />

This can be done in much the same way as with other paint media. Apply the original marker color then use the Blender to<br />

loosen the pigment and drag it across the art surface. As the color becomes gradually more transparent, the result is a smooth<br />

transition from darker to light.<br />
