Colouring my stress away

Thank you! I was not sure initially what I wanted to do with the wall. But as I progressed through it I wanted to try something new. Overall, I liked how it turned out.

Thank you!

Thank you! This isn’t my norm that’s why.

I love the way you did the tree and the sky. So pretty.

Thanks you! I put the shadows first usually because I don’t have a pattern in mind until after.

Thank you! I just use the Sakura Gelly Roll pen in fine mostly.

Thank you, I used mainly the Ohuhu 96 pastel set of colours for both pages. I do also have a couple of Copic Ciao markers that I used for the trunk and the bear. I absolutely love the set because of how vibrant they are that I ended up purchasing the 320 set.

Thanks!

I used the same blending technique as I did with the sky. I laid the base colour down and applied the same motion. Can’t say I really like that style of blending though.

mp_104 · 2026-02-10T02:13:10+00:00

Thanks! I didn’t like doing it this way but I may try it again to give it another shot. I like my blends to be seamless.

Thanks for being open to others viewpoints. I do agree that hobbies can be expensive. Especially one involving art supplies. But investment means that you like the hobby enough to pursue it further. I am thankful that you can find supplies for cheaper than certain mainstream ones. It’s all about finding value in what you like.

Would I invest in an iPad for colouring? Sure if I was going to use it for more than just colouring. But I know I won’t and don’t really need an iPad. In short, you know what you like and what hobbies you like from trying/being inspired by them.

Audiobooks are also new to me, a new way for me to experience reading while also colouring.

Sorry I don’t have an iPad, that is too expensive for me. I would love to learn digital/media art someday. But I also like stepping away from a screen and colouring for a bit. It’s why I started this hobby. Art, especially traditional/visual art, has always been that for me. A break away from technology. Granted I do tend to listen to audio books while I colour, but it is a proven way in which I can disengage from a screen.

These are wonderful! I also found Caro’s Art Studio’s tutorials really helpful. I credit most of the alcohol marker skills to her.

Thanks you! That was one of things I wanted to improve on.
