What a cool idea!

I blame @Whistlefish and her post here for my newest obsession

I downloaded some cutesy coloring pages on Etsy. And used alcohol and stabilo markers

I’ve gotten back into coloring the past few months. It’s something I do at the end of the night to wind down and relax before hitting bed. I’ve been working with “cozy” books lately + alcohol markers (with accents done in acrylic paint markers) to keep it simple and easy and stress-free. I’ve been working on developing my personal “style” and way of doing the coloring.

So now I shall spam you with some pics. :joy:

This isn’t all of them, but it’s a good representation of what I’ve been doing the past 6 months or so.

I’ve been using Ohuhu alcohol markers and Grabie Acrylic Paint Markers (Extra Fine Tip) primarily. I like using the acrylic markers better than white gel pens because it’s more consistent ink and shows up more vividly.

Anyway, that’s what I’ve been up to coloring-wise.

these are great! I love my gel pens but sometimes paint pens jut work better over other mediums.

I have been coloring, just failing to post. I have really been focusing on learning colored pencil blending. Here’s my latest finish, from the World of Fairies coloring book by Sara Burrier.

I came across mini coloring books. They are 3”x3”

Nice when you just want something quick to do.

I was coloring without my glasses so I’m amazed I stayed in the lines as well as I did
