drawing with the gray markers

These gray markers are great for illustration-style drawings. Just lay in the tones and keep on going! Here is a drawing book I am going through now with my son and his wife:

No matter what you draw, Starr, your sketches are AWESOME!!! You have such a talent/skill for values and shading!!!

I really like how you use the gray markers for the different values!! Are these Faber-Castell Pitt pens(the brush ones)?

Yes, they are the Pitt pens - they came in a six pack called "shades of gray". Really fun to work with.
