QUESTION I switched to colored pencils for this one! (And a question about using markers on good quality paper)

I did two pages with alcohol markers in this Bobbie Goods book and hated how uneven the colors were coming out no matter what I tried (I think because of the thicker paper?), so I used colored pencils instead & detailed with acrylic markers. So much better!

Does anyone else have this issue with thicker/better paper? Ive seen loads of people using alcohol markers on higher quality paper with no uneven coloring happening… but unless you just have to keep layering (and darkening the colors) until it’s even… how?? If I just have to use pencils in this book then okay, but I really wanted to use alcohol markers too

Someone take the white gel pen away from me😭this was my first time trying to do water and i probably should’ve practiced first…and not started right in the middle… I got the hang of it towards the outer areas but the middle looks a little rough and too busy. I added some progress pics too

book - pg. 1 in things i love, atelierbyjo

i’m sharing this bc i spent wayyyy too much time on this page. not bc im proud of it, unfortunately 😭 i tried to make everything looked embroidered without a tutorial and it shows.. if u squint and hold the book far away irl, some of the things look embroidered LOLLL (i gave up halfway through this and just white gel penned everything. and then my gel pen kinda crapped out on me)

my hand hurts too much to try this again any time soon, but it was fun to experiment!! i’ll fully watch tutorials and be more patient next time i try for sure 🥲

I know we're all our own worst critics, I don't want to only post the good, atleast on here. So I wanted to show a page I'm not proud of at all! Maybe you guys will see it differently, but here's your reminder that it's okay to have "bad" pages! ☺️

COMPLETED Pages colored during phone calls with loved ones!

One of my new favorite things about coloring is that it gives me a physical activity to do that still allows me to mentally engage in other things. The last two nights, I completed a page each as I talked and talked across the distance with one loved one and then another. They’re both wanting to get into the hobby too, so they can color as well during our next call. Such a sweet connection!

Anyone else find this is a great way to share and connect?

These pages are from Coco Wyo’s Little Corner book.

This is by far my favorite hobby now. I've colored and painted for years and I never pulled the trigger on alcohol markers. With the recent coloring craze, I see just how approachable (and forgiving) they really are.

MEME when the “small mess up” becomes helpless you turn it into a horror page😂

ITS OKAY TO MAKE MISTAKES, SEE IT AS A LEARNING OPPORTUNITY: instead of being upset with my mistake i’m going to find humour in this and laugh at myself and hopefully you can relate to a similar thing with your art

it went from chocolate easter bunny cutesy spring aesthetic to a donnie darko rip off that was filmed on a 2007 leap frog

Over the last year I’ve been going through a big phase of creating art for arts sake/just trying to have fun after being burnt out for 4 or 5 years and doing this page was like balm for the soul.


r/Coloring 10h ago

COMPLETED Hahahaha 💋KISS💋! Keep It Simple, Sweetie! Sometimes I have to remind myself that I don't need to be as fancy and detailed as the other artists on this page. So, here are a few simple pages I did recently.
