We thought you might like to see a sneak preview of a New Book By Marie Browning…
This drawing technique is the art of removing. You can quickly create beautiful drawings with the subtractive technique using thin metal stencils, Tombow drawing pencils and MONO and Zero Tombow Erasers. This is a very different and enjoyable technique to try and will get you creating appealing little drawings suitable for framing or presenting on a card.
Marie will introduce ‘Impressed Color Drawing’ and ‘DoodleDabs’ in the new book.
The DoodleDab technique was designed with the Tombow Dual Brush Pens. It uses a simple stroke technique to produce delightful little motifs to use in all your paper crafting projects. She will be stepping out over thirty favorite DoodleDabs in the book. The Rose DoodleDab is shown here accenting a stamped image.
We’re sure you’ll love learning these unique techniques from Marie. The book will be presented at Winter CHA….we hope you enjoyed this “sneak peak”…Stay tuned.

The MONO Professional Drawing Pencils are refined, high density graphite with high point strength that is
break resistant. The smearproof lines continue to produce crisp, clean drawings with the added value of slow wear for smooth and dense writing.
We know that we can’t make a believer out of everyone, but if you won’t take our word for it, check out this article where Cynthia Niklas tested the F, B and H leads of both pencils and wrote about what she found.
Michael Amos is a Visual Development Artist and Character Designer from Melbourne, Australia who has been working in the animation industry for over 14 years. Throughout the years Michael has worked with clients like Disney and Pixar films, Touchstone Pictures and Coca-Cola. Michael uses Tombow MONO Drawing Pencils in his sketches and loves the look of the 2B and 4B pencils.
He uses Tombow pencils for the initial drawing and then adds the final touches using PhotoshopCS5. Amos prefers to use Tombow pencils for the initial drawing because he likes the “real pencil” look. The detail of an animators sketch is very important and pencil smears can be a nightmare, so the smooth lines of Tombow pencils are perfect for creating the initial sketch of an animation.
Michael is an experienced and talented animator and his work is amazing, so whether you are an experienced animator or just breaking into the animation scene our Drawing Pencils are great additions to your creative suite.

Terry Madden is the host of the popular and nationally syndicated PBS television series, “Terry Madden’s Watercolor Workshop.” He and his wife Judy own an art gallery in Stuart, Fla., and together, they have written nearly half a dozen workbooks on watercolor art.
The former investment banker turned artist is a huge fan of our Tombow Dual Brush Pens. Terry’s such a fan that he gave our pens, not to mention our pencils and adhesives, a glowing recommendation on his website.
“I love Tombow pens, and if you’ve seen my Public TV Special, or any of my workshops, you’ll know I use Tombow Dual Brush Pens for creating value studies and many sketches. Tombow also makes excellent professional grade drawing and sketching pencils and archival quality paper adhesives – which work great for attaching photos, artwork or crafts to scrapbooks or photo albums or anywhere you need it! Tombow makes great products and I recommend them to you!”
