In the spirit of The Daily Marker 30 Day Color Challenge that some of us are going to try to participate in, I thought this would be a helpful addition to committing 10 minutes a day for coloring. Take various types of card stock and watercolor paper, a good drawing pen (resistant to inks and paint if possible) and draw a flower, circles, squares and rectangles and just have fun with it. It's amazing how bad my drawings looked, but after coloring them they improved...well a little anyway. As you can see, my rectangle was lame looking as a plain drawing but after using water colors on it and some embellishing with gel pens it has a certain appeal. Bob actually commented that he thought it was pretty!!! The flower was fun to do also. I hadn't used my Copics in ages and this exercise reminded me that I need to keep up my practice using them.
This is all for fun and relaxation if not a little outside some of our comfort zones. No worries...HAVE FUN!
