Thaneeya McArdle, Artist Photo

Hi! My name is Thaneeya McArdle and I'm thrilled to teach you everything I know about using alcohol markers! 💖

I've been using alcohol markers for over 10 years, during which time, my coloring books have sold over 3.8 million copies!

Publishing over 30 coloring books has given me ample opportunity to hone my coloring techniques, especially the use of alcohol markers. Along the way, I've picked up a ton of invaluable tips, tricks and techniques that really helped me refine my process. I'm so excited to share these techniques with you!

Since 2009, my art education website, www.Art-is-Fun.com, has helped over 30 million people on their artistic journey. With my new series of video courses, I'm super-excited to share my art knowledge in a whole new way, by providing dynamic content in a fun-to-follow format!
