r/Coloring

Green overload haha

Just finished colouring my first page, I have some experience as I used to do digital art a few years ago but it’s my first time really trying out traditional media/markers!

Is there any advice you’d give me on how I can make it look more polished? I think the sand looks a bit messy but wasn’t really sure how to make it look neat without it being flat, also any recommendation on good white gel pens cause the one I have is pretty terrible?

Any feedback is appreciated 😊

I’ve been coloring with alcohol markers since May and this is the first page I’ve actually felt confident enough to post. I love the color palette and how warm and cozy it feels.

I finally went out of my colouring comfort zone and did a beach page but I am not entirely happy with it. I like the colour palette I have going on and the sand came out alright but the sky/clouds and the sea look off to me. I need some advice on how to make those elements look better.

I really enjoyed both of these free pages from hygge artful. I used alcohol markers, gel pen, and coloured pencil.

Take this everlasting rose, to remind you of them. It will be painful to walk with your grief, but it is better than to forget.

Spent a good few hours on it, first time using my Polychromos pencils, I just replaced my Black Widow pencils with them as I wasn't enjoying them. Really happy with it, and didn't make it spooky for once :)

Whilst colouring I thought of the little poem thing. I've never experienced grief, myself, but I adore the sentiment of not forgetting, but walking with your grief. I see Death as a kind figure, someone who helps others move into the afterlife, here he feels sorry for the dog's loneliness and wants to help him too.

Latest piece alcohol markers took about 2 hours

Just wanted to share my latest and first beach scenes. Latest was colored yesterday and my first ever beach scene was done at the beginning of June. Pleasee share your progress photos with me!! 🌸 🌸 🌸

Trying to get over my fear of ruining a page :) I think the curtain came out decent

Obsessed with creating fall scenes at the moment anybody else? :)

I stopped coloring for a while. Life got a little hard and it fell to the back burner. I'm glad I've been able to get back into this summer. Here are some of my favorite completed pages I've done recently!

Bottom line, got to do a colour combo I wanted, AND went crazy with gold marker and pencils. Still a win in my books.
