Instead of fighting against gel pen smear, this gel pen coloring tutorial teaches you to embrace it! Learn how to use the juicy nature of gel pens to get beautiful blending results.

Adding a base layer to your gel pens is a great way to get deep, rich colors, hide mistakes and create a wide variety of colors from only a few pens.

This technique is so much fun and almost like magic! Now that I’ve been coloring with glycerin and gel pens, I don’t know that I could ever go back!

Yes, you read that right–painting with gel pens! See how I combine the glycerin from Video 6 with gel pens to paint my coloring pages and books. It’s soooo much fun!

I have watched several of your Gel Pen video tutorials, lked and shared them on facebook, but it does not seem that I have been given credit for them for the challenge, I have also colored and posted one of your coloring pages,same result, what am I doing incorrectly?
I’m sorry about that Jean. Did you click the “Continue” button in the contest form?
I learn so much from you I love it. I even paint with my gel pens. From the two videos I have already learned about why the size makes so much difference. My family calls it shinies for me cause I always stop and look when I see pens, markers, and pencils and they have to pull me from them.
That’s great Martha! Thank you for sharing.
i cant wait to watch all of them
very nice to meet you.
Just want to say Jennifer – thank you! I found this video informative and helpful and look forward to more of your videos soon!
You’re welcome Cindy! And thank you for sharing. 🙂
All this time I’ve been doing it wrong. Color the whoole space, avoid smears anduse bigger tips. *smile*
I like the smaller points for very small areas, have 1 set that has a 0.3 tip, very good for very small or delicate spaces.
I love watching you color. I’ve leaned a few things. I do better with pens and pencils than I do inks and paint.
Thank you Carla 🙂
