Watercolor Crayon Art

One of my favorite Steve Jobs quotes is: “Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking.

Custom Tint Photos Using Spectrum Noir Markers

I recently tried Spectrum Noir markers for the first time. I wondered what all the buzz was about, they are just markers, right? Uh, no. Spectrum Noir are alcohol based inks.
