Blender Markers

From RISDpedia

General Overview
Blender Markers, also known as Transfer markers, are used to make a more seamless transition between two marker colors. However, the Blender markers can also be used like Wintergreen Oil for transferring color or black and white photocopied images (as long as toner is present and decently fresh).
Tips, Tricks & How-Tos
Take a photocopied image (preferably recently copied), which much have used toner, place it upside down over the surface you wish to transfer it to, then "draw" with the Blender marker over the backside, soaking the photocopy paper until you can see the ink through the page. Peel off gently and allow it to dry.
