How to Draw a Glow-in-the-Dark Mountain

Draw a Glow-in-the-Dark Mountain

In this, the last of our Four Mountains series, Jim demonstrates how to draw a “glow in the dark” mountain using negative space and black light chalk. Jim is drawing with fluorescent lecturer’s chalk on gray bogus paper. You can buy the chalk and paper Jim is using from Eternity Arts (eternityarts.com). You can also do this picture with fluorescent pastels and pastel paper. Scroll down to see the fluorescent products we offer. And don’t forget to buy a black light!

Christmas Project: Draw a Christmas Tree that Lights Up!

Since we’re nearing Christmas, I thought I’d post a video I did a few years back, about how to use black light chalk to create a lighted Christmas tree effect. To make the tree light up, you’ll need to use fluorescent pencils or pastels for the lights. And you’ll need a black light. You can purchase these at the See the Light Art store. You can find links to these supplies below the video.
