Watch me test 16 different art products and techniques to figure out which are the best for creating black backgrounds–especially for coloring books, card making & art journaling. I used the following criteria to test and evaluate the best black backgrounds: ease of application, opacity and intensity of black, streakiness/blotchiness, layer-ability, paper bleed, and paper damage/warping. These are the products that I tested: Derwent Inktense Pencils, Inktense with Brush Pen, Caran d’Ache Neocolor II Aquarelle, NeoColor II with Brush Pen, Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencil with Gamsol, Colored Pencil with Alcohol Marker, and more!
