I'll show you how I go through my art-making process of making this sweet gal.

I start by making the quick pencils for this cutie. In this stage I make choices before I ink of what stays and goes, usually making adjustments to her features until I feel confident to ink her.

I add a little drop shadow near the head when I ink. I think it brings out her hair.

Once I finish inking I erase all of the pencils though I'll go back over some of the inked lines that look faded. Once that is done I let this sit for a while before I start coloring.

I begin to work on the base colors here on this stage with her fur ( Using 133 baby skin pink TouchNew marker) and ears ( R00 and E0000 in copics and a colorless blender). Her skirt I used permanent markers in pink, orange and red and one artskills marker orange.

I begin shading with tea rose E93 for her hair, fur and ears. It gives a warm and soft shade to the drawing.

Once I finish shading, I begin to add little flowers to the background. Simply I use green and pink permanent markers to make them.

I add in some of the last little highlights with a gellyroll before I complete the illustration.

And we are done~

These are the Materials I used for this illustration. I cut my own stock paper I buy from Walmart.
You can buy a pack of eight Artskill markers at Walmart for five dollars and they are excellent beginner-friendly and affordable markers.

I bought touch new markers from WISH, they're quite cheap. To get the soft colors that I used, I recommend buying their Pastel set which is fifteen dollars but you get twelve markers.

Another brand I love to use that is affordable is Masters Touch markers, they are the cheapest brush markers I have tried and give off really nice colors. They go for five dollars in hobby lobby but you can get them on sale for three dollars a marker every other week.

Lastly, I use sharpies Fineliner and Copic markers.

As a tip, it's good to have the back of a sketchbook behind your paper when you begin to color in your drawing since the markers tend to bleed through the paper.
