very cool. Do you have quite a bit of pressure when touching one marker to the other?

Niki, pressing downward makes the ink “pool” out, whether in this case on the other marker or if you were making a palette to mix colors with. I honestly can’t say I have a feel for how much pressure you really need to apply. But I think the harder you press the more ink will flow. As for the green marker turning brown, no! I don’t know if it is gravity, or what, but in class while doing the tip to tip technique once the wrong tip absorbed the ink. It may also be if one marker is dryer than the other then you might have the unintended consequence of that marker being thirsty?!
