I Still Color

I love adult coloring, it's very meditative, and I still do that once in a while.
This one is colored with Bruynzeel and spent hours on all the details, but happy with the result. It's from the book 'My Secret Garden' by Johanna Basford.

@Jadenightbird: I use Bruynzeel mostly, for this one too. It's a Dutch mark.
Sometimes I use Derwent but don't like them as much as my Bruynzeels :-)
You?

The coloring books and magazines are kind of expensive here in the USA but I discovered that Dollar Tree stores are selling them now, they are only $1 each, so I bought a second one...not as many pages but nice pictures..the coloring magazine was $7.99 and the Dollar Tree coloring book was $1.

No it's not a brand, but there are brands that sell them (Caran d'Ache has good Aquarels if you want an example), Aquarel pencils look like other colour pencils but if you use a water pencil thingy (Derwent has them) it looks like it's aquarel painted...

@Jadenightbird: lol this one was a while ago ;-) it was challenging with all the details, I just color what I like on that moment, not necessarily in the right order.

Acacia: I think they'll be good for a rainy day or when you have to be indoors for some reason....coloring is relaxing for me and also crocheting...

I have a couple of those coloring books but haven't done any yet...What do you use to color with? Crayons, markers, or colored pencils...?

@SBelle: talent not really needed, just do as you like, result will be beautiful nevertheless, patience however....a lot hahaha ;-)
KellyBear · 41-45, F
hahaha...watch it...In my experience it's very addictive to keep buying them lol Maybe first try it out and see how you like it.
