After watching the video, do your own patterns and textures. Have fun!
Work adding color to them little by little, no need to do it all in one session.

Try all sort of strokes with your markers.
Don't worry if the results is not a piece to be 
hanging on a wall of a museum. You are getting to know the tools. Try practicing these patterns  from Pic Candle to help gain control over your handcraftship.
