Copic Marker Madness

Well, a lot of people know I REALLY like art, and recently I've heard about these incredible markers called Copic Markers. They look just like the pictures I have, and you can buy them in sets of 12, 32, and 72. Artwork coloured using these markers have incredible intensity and depth. In fact, many professional artists use them for their art. As soon as I saw artwork made by these wonderful markers, I just about begged my parents for some. However, that was before i found out the price of these markers.

Copic Markers sound wonderful for all you artists don't they. However, I will warn you that you might be a little shocked at the price.

The first thing I thought was HOLY COW!, the second thing I thought was EITHER IM BROKE OR CANADA IS RIPPING PEOPLE OFF!, the third thing I thought was MY WII COST LESS THAN 72 MARKERS!, the fourth thing i thought was @#$% **$#! WHAT THE $#@* IS WRONG WITH THESE @%#*$&^ @*%#*!@!, the fifth thing I thought was I REALLY WANT THESE EXTREMELY RIPPED OFF UNFAIR OVERPRICED MARKERS!, and the seventh thought i had was HOW THE #%@& AM I GOING TO CONVINCE MY CHEAPO MOM AND DAD TO BUY ME THESE MARKERS!, and my eighth thought was MY SISTER REALLY WANTS A FLUFFY BUNNY!, and then, I ran out of thoughts.

GUESS WHAT? My mom, the complete cheapo woman that gave me a hard time when I wanted a Wii, readily said yes when I asked her for the markers. The first thought I had was WHEN DID MARTIANS ATTACK EARTH AND BRAINWASH MY MOM!?, my second thought was, MY SISTER REALLY, REALLY WANTS A FLUFFY BUNNY!, and then I ran out of ideas, again. Eventually I came to the conclusion that my mom was pretending to be nice and had some sort of blackmail plan. Maybe something like making me miss birthday and Christmas presents for the next two years. You know, like if I ask for something she'll just reply, "What about the markers that I bought you for $399.95?" or maybe she's just being nice....NAH!

For my next post I'll be showing you some artwork drawn with the wonderful, over-priced Copic Markers, that everyone loves.
