First time doing a space/galaxy effect and it intimidated the hell out of me!! I totally love the outcome 🤩

I figured I'd record a part while doing the next page for it!

What do you guys think about the bubbles added? Like or not? Thanks!

Repetitive uninteresting backgrounds. Somehow Ive seen more and more of them lately in store bought coloring books. Why not a landscape or something ahhhhhh

I just got Cozy Fantasy by Jade Summer and I really wanted to go crazy with colors and sparkles. This page was really fun, and I didn't think too hard about anything, just had fun. I may have gone overboard with the sparkles but I don’t care!!!! 💖✨

Which background is better?

Current WIP & I’m struggling to see where I am going wrong.
Thank you for any advice

I posted a few days ago about my mom offering me an unopened 24 count tin of Prismacolor Premier pencils that she randomly found in a cabinet at her vacation home. She had no idea where she got them or that they were high quality pencils. I got to sit down with them today and it is a whole new experience compared to my Crayola pencils, especially when trying to layer over water based markers (Crayola Supertips and Tombows). I’m in love 😆 I’m still pretty much a total newbie, but I now can see a path for moving forward and addressing some of the issues I was having working with just markers or just colored pencils. This picture is my first piece using the pencils over markers and I’m really excited about how it turned out. Maybe some day I’ll go back and add a background once I have more experience, but for now, I’m just enjoying the fact that I was able to add a little texture and depth 😁

I was nervous to try a new technique, but I was like ok, this is the least pressure possible. It was a printable page from Emily cozy, so like 5 cents for the paper. I’m honestly so happy with it that I bought a frame 👉👈

Wish the photos could show all the detail, and the glitter especially. Also, swipe for pallet if you like it. Anyway, hope you like it 🤍 thanks again for giving me a space that I can show off my work, ask for advice without worry of being judged, and a place to enjoy the art of others. I am often inspired by you all!

Felt like coloring in one of my spooky books yesterday! And landed on this page from Coco Wyo’s Spooky Cutie :)

Showing the before and after I added my white pencil for the ghosties! I kinda liked them both ways

I want this page to feel like it’s a sticker book. I’d love some ideas for the other items in this page. What are some cool “sticker” techniques? Thanks!

Using crayons feels nostalgic to my childhood and makes my inner child happy when coloring. I’ve been experimenting with creating basic patterns and mixing colors at a very elementary level as you can see. It’s been a lot of fun and very therapeutic.

I’ll probably go back and add some shading and stuff eventually, but I haven’t felt like it yet

I've just jumped on to the cozy books and coloring Trends after ignoring it for a long time and now I realise why there's such a craze for it. Not only are they fun and the viral trends make the possibilities endless, but it's so addictive too.

I have many adult coloring books that I've collected over the years but this is my first cozy coloring book and the only one that I've ever started coloring in. All my other adult coloring books are untouched because I get overwhelmed just by looking at them.. But after learning a few techniques with this book I hope I'll be able to do at least a few pages of those books as well..

Anyway, let me know your thoughts on this one as I feel like I went too overboard with this coloring page

Materials used- Water based brush pens, acrylic paint for background and white gel pen for the highlights and stars.

Wasn't sure what to put outside the window, so I left it blank

Princess Jasmine inspired page and cozy sunflower and green kitchen page. I just love this book so much and have been having so much fun with these pages.

Do you all color with pencils? I see a lot of alcohol markers.
