I have a confession: I am obsessed with Posca paint pens!

Posca paint pens have sparked my creativity and revitalized my sketchbooks. Drawing with Posca paint pens is like painting with acrylic, but with more control and less mess.

Basically, it's painting for illustrators!

Poscas come in bright, lovely colors and 8 different nib sizes. The paint is opaque enough to layer on top of each other and dries in just a couple of minutes. They also don't bleed through to the other side of the paper, making them wonderful sketchbook tools!

In this class, you'll learn how to get started drawing with Posca paint pens—everything from:

where to buy them
which ones to buy
what paper to draw on
and how to prime the pens

I'll also be showing you my favorite Posca drawing techniques, including how to:

draw smooth strokes
whether to push or pull the pen
fill in blocks of color
add linework
layer paint
add shading
how to clean your pens
and how to use Posca in mixed-media artwork

Lastly, I'll cover the most common issues artists have with Posca and how you can avoid them, like:

paint blobs
splattering
watery paint
paper piling and rippling
and dry nibs.

You'll also get a PDF download with my personal favorite Posca pen nibs and colors and my Top Posca Tips for quick reference as you start drawing.

By the end of this class, you'll have everything you need to start drawing with Posca pens and injecting fun into your own art with this amazing tool!

So c'mon, let's start drawing with Posca!
