Thanks very much for stopping by. I hope you are having a good weekend. I am showing a page from the Clarity colouring book today. I did do this a while ago, but have just realised that I haven't blogged it yet.
It is coloured with waxy pencils. I am not the best colourer-inner, but I am having great fun wiht this book, you can do each page bit by bit, you don't have to sit and do it all in one go. I think it is good to take your time and get a result you can be pleased with.The picture has come out a bit faded, but it was actually quite bright for me!
A few things I have learnt: Nothing in nature is a solid colour, so I always use several colours and blend.
Add shade!! I don't think I am brave enough with this yet, but I am getting there!
Add highlights, I am also not very brave with this either.
Keep practising! Practice makes perfect, as they say....
Enjoy it! You are supposed to be relaxing, remember!

ReplyDeleteNice and colourful for a miserable morning! Would have been tempted to use markers for the birds to make them stand out from the foliage.....
ReplyDeleteLovely page Janet, and I am so glad that you have blogged it. It is amazing just how relaxing colouring is, I remember spending many hours as a young girl. With my sister and our colouringbooks...happy memories..
ReplyDeleteHave a great week....xxx
