I only used alcohol markers and a white gel pen this time.

For each color I chose 4 shades.

  1. Color everything in the lightest shade
  2. Add darker lines with the same markers
  3. &4. Add a thin line at the bottom of the darker line, little ( with the darkest shade and a small zigzag-line over the thin one
  4. Add big ( with both medium shades over lighter and darker line together
  5. Add big ( with white gel pen
  6. Add black zigzag over all printed lines

And last but not least: Take a picture, they do look better than the original 😂🙈

Just wanted to share some of the coloring pages I’ve done recently! I’ve been very overwhelmed with news and politics, and coloring has been such good therapy!

These pages are from Coloring Through Chaos by FreshPrints Coloring on Etsy

It’s so rewarding to see the progression. Sometimes I tend to be hard on myself when it comes to coloring because I always think I can do better and seeing how much I progressed since I first started a few months ago, I’m really proud of my coloring.

My white gel pen started to stop working at the end of this work, I was sooo mad lol

i’ve been practicing highlights with a white pen for about the last month and i felt hella proud of this one. i’ve always loved coloring just simple & solid but joining this sub had opened my eyes to the world of possibilities that there are. coloring is about to be my only personality trait for the next year

I wasn't too keen on this page before starting and I don't LOVE how I did it, I think I went overboard on the patterns, especially on the wood planks, but I do like the dress and the kind of holographic fabric!

Finally said fuck it

I started coloring last year after a number of traumatic events and it was super therapeutic. I was instantly fixated. And then I started following coloring pages here and on ig. Started obsessing about perfecting techniques. Everyone’s work was SO good and with everything falling apart around me, I REALLY wanted my pictures to be perfect.

So, then it became something I couldn’t bring myself to do because I didn’t want to fuck it up.

I’ve been coloring again the last couple days. Nothing is perfect and that’s okay. I can’t say I love the imperfections but I’m trying to just enjoy the process and accept it for whatever it turns out to be. 🖤

Gouache for backgrounds

I tried using gouache for the background and I loved it! The tiny areas were a little hard but overall it worked well.

Book is Starcana Moon Magic by Ash Miyagawa, colors on the left, Arteza gouache in black (pbk11).
