Jen + Ink

WELCOME TO

in COLOR

Jen + Ink in Color is a companion to the original “Jen + Ink” course.

In this self-paced class, I dive into color, the color wheel, and color theory. You’ll learn how to harmoniously work two or more colors together in a composition as well as more advanced ballpoint pen drawing techniques.

Supplies You’ll Need for this Course

  • Ballpoint pens (the more colors the better!)

  • Smooth paper

  • A comfy place to sit

  • Your favorite beverage

Course Prerequisites

  • A basic understanding of ballpoint pen drawing

  • A willingness to practice

  • Enthusiasm for COLOR

It is recommended that you take “Jen + Ink” before taking this course.

“Jen & Ink in Color” builds on what is taught in the original “Jen + Ink” course. To get the most out of it, you’ll need the foundational skills presented in “Jen + Ink” to make sense of the new material.

Kind words from Jen + Ink Students

I have taken both of the courses offered, and find myself going back to them often. It seems every time that I do so, I find more to learn. Sometimes I listen to the course while other times I watch without the sound, just because I seem to keep finding important things in them that somehow I missed before.I love that we can go back to them as we need.

I have PTSD and an anxiety disorder. These classes have helped me to be able to focus on something else when I start to have a hard time. I’m able to completely immerse myself in this art, and kind of get lost in the safe space it provides for me in these moments.

I love, love, love these classes! The Facebook group is amazing, and Jen is always ready and willing to help when needed. I absolutely recommend to everyone. Well worth the price.

The Jen + Ink in Colour Course is definitely something that artists should try if they are looking for something different to do. In this course Jennifer goes through each lesson with such ease, making you want more. I like how she introduces colour and explains how the colours on the colour wheel interact with each other and the techniques in applying colour ink such as layering, to to get different effects. I enjoyed the course and guess what? I keep going back to refresh myself. I recommend Jen + Ink Colour course...it’s definitely something to try.

I took the first class - Jen + Ink, and really enjoyed it. Creating was fun and easy! I am looking forward to taking the new course - Jen + Ink in Color. It’s great to be able to create art with instructions/videos from home.

I have completed both of Jennifer’s e-courses and love both of them. I find this form of art is relaxing and I love how different each piece can be. I am still learning, but Jennifer is very precise in her teachings and encourages you to keep going and gives great feedback. I would recommend to anyone to give it a go, I am thoroughly enjoying this new found addiction.

Jen & Ink in Color is the perfect follow up course as it builds on the techniques learnt in the original and shows how to use two or more colors in your drawings. Absolutely love it and highly recommended if you want to take your art further.

I've admired Jen's unique style for sometime now and was so excited to take her class. Not only does she generously share her technique but in Jen + ink in Color she also explains the basics of color theory. If you're interested in learning a fun meditative and relaxing art process that requires only simple supplies and is easy to take on the go, this is for you!

Meet your Instructor.

Hi there. How are you? I'm Jennifer Mullin and I've been making and teaching art for more than 20 years. My current art tool of choice is the humble ballpoint pen. Over years of practice, I developed a unique, abstract drawing style that people really respond to. As I’ve been out of the classroom for years now, It’s been great to dip my toe back into teaching again in this virtual venue. It’s a joy share my skills with students from all over the world!
