Drawing utensil(s): 

I'd suggest using a pencil to draw your basic shape/design - that way you can easily erase mistakes - and then color it in once you're satisfied with the design. After you increase some involvement in drawing the essential paisley layout, you can take a stab at drawing the fundamental paisley shape utilizing a marker, shaded pencil and so on and coloring as you go. (Or you can try both ways to see which you prefer!)


After you draw your paisley, you can color it in with any medium you can think of: markers, gel pens, colored pencils, watercolor pencils, pastels, crayons, paint, or whatever you can get your hands on!
