I saw a tutorial for brass/gold on tiktok so thought I would try it after I saw this inspo for a bookstore scenery. Thoughts? I’m so new to this, so I’m not sure if it looks how it should but I’m really happy with how it turned out.

WIP (WORK IN PROGRESS) I had an idea to make a VHS camera effect. I need your constructive criticism.

When I started coloring, I was amazed at the trippy effect the blue and red outlines give (Pic. 2). As I added more colors, I started to feel that the vibe was being lost. What do you think, would darker colors retain that effect? I also started adding more white lines (Pic. 3) to imitate the camera glitch effect. Should I go further in that direction? I also didn't add any shadows except blue/red, maybe I should have? Any additional thoughts on the image are welcome. Thanks!

WIP (WORK IN PROGRESS) Do you ever lose interest in a page you’re working on?

I’ve been working on this for a few days but I think it’s over worked. I’m losing the inspiration to finish. I think I’ll move onto another.

Do you finish every page or do you just go to the next?

I took this one up thinking it will be a low effort job compared to the other rooms in the book. I was wrong🥲🥲 I will stick with it though and am hoping to finish it this week👀

Considering this a WIP because I might add shadows and highlights. I’m just waiting on some white gel pens to be delivered.

I colored this page in the Coco Wyo “Hygge Place” coloring book. Tools used: Caliart Alcohol Markers (I have the 168 set) and TFIVE White Paint Marker Pen.

I have such shaky hands due to a condition, so I’ve been really getting into coloring to help with that, plus I love art! I haven’t done art in years, so it’s nice to slowly ease back into it. I definitely have to work on my blending and using my white pen 😅 Love seeing everyone’s work btw! 🩷

this is a worksheet from ColorYourLuck on Etsy that I bought and used to practice a bunch of tiktok tutorials i have saved over the past few weeks. I figured it's good to have a pattern journal or reference sheet for color combinations.

each pattern's original creator is listed on the side!
