I signed up for this class (
Copic Jumpstart Class) a couple of months ago, and it finally began on May 27th. Unfortunately, I was camping and didn't have internet, except on the rare occasion we went into town. Therefore, I started this class quite a bit later.
I watched the getting ready videos, and colored in my hex chart to see what colors I had, and how they went together, a couple of weeks ago. I had managed to get several of the Copic Markers that Sandy recommended, and had a few in my collection that I could substitute for some of them, so I was ready to go.
The first lesson was about color wheels, and color glazing. It took quite a bit longer to get my homework done than I had first thought. Here is a peek at the results I had. I first colored several color wheels using different shades, and then made a glazed color wheel, where the colors overlapped the ones next to it. Interesting!

I moved on to doing a bunch of color glazing wheels, with one color as the base, then coloring over it in sections, using a different color in each section. This was also very interesting, as there were a lot of different effects when trying out the different colors. Some blended easily, some seemed to take away the base color, and others didn't seem to affect the base color very much with subtle changes.

I used the same colors as Sandy did in her example of the large glazed color wheel, with one substitution. I then used those same colors in my glazing chart.
So far, I'm loving this class. I've already learned quite a bit.
