In this class I will show you how to make a mixed media landscape spread in your sketchbook with brush pens, colored pencils and neocolor crayons. 
I will start by going over the art materials that you will need and what colors we will be using. From there we will start to prepare the sketchbook, taping off the edges and drawing. Then we will make three landscape illustrations in our sketchbooks and a color swatch. 
Who is this class for?
This class is for beginner to intermediate artists. But I also believe that everyone can learn something from this class. So if you want to make a more aesthetically pleasing art in your sketchbook, or if you want to practice your mixed media techniques or if you just want to make a cool spread in your sketchbook of an Icelandic landscape then this is the class for you. 
What will you learn?
By the end of this class you will have a beautiful landscape spread in your sketchbook and you will have learned a few new tricks and tips like:
<ul>
<li>What type of art materials to use</li>
<li>How to select colors for your artwork</li>
<li>How to use tape to get clean lines and a cohesive look in your sketchbook</li>
<li>How to use brush pens, colored pencils and neocolor crayons </li>
<li>How to make a mixed media landscape illustration</li>
</ul>
What you will need
I am a firm believer that art should be with as little limitation as possible. I will tell you what materials I like to use but I also invite you to use whatever you have on hand. Here are the materials I will be using:
<ul>
<li>Mixed media sketchbook</li>
<li>pencil, eraser and tape</li>
<li>Brush pens (Tombow or Ecoline)</li>
<li>Colored pencils (Polycromos or Luminance 6901)</li>
<li>Neocolor II crayons</li>
</ul>
