Who this marker swatch book is for
This swatch book is for artists, illustrators and journalers using markers, brush pens and fineliners. It suits beginners with a first set and collectors with hundreds of markers. Marker caps rarely match the real ink color, so swatching each one, testing blends and tracking which need refills saves time and money. It also helps artists who share markers between home and travel kits, since the inventory shows where each one is. Clear swatches make color choices faster when illustrating, lettering or coloring.
How to use your marker swatch book
Swatch every marker with its code on the swatch pages. Test blends between two or three markers. Note which markers need restocking or refilling. Keep the inventory updated, and record colors used in each project. Swatch on the same paper you usually use, since ink looks different on each surface. Group swatches by color family so you can compare quickly, and update the restock page whenever a marker starts streaking.
