My first colored picture

Like I said, I color by lamplight, sitting on my bed, at night.  This is the first one I have done, my daughter says it's better than I think it is.

 

I hope I've done this right.

So pretty.  I've been following all the coloring with great interest!  How long did it take you to do this one?

It took probably a couple of weeks, because I only do it for a little while at night.  I take a sleeping pill every night, and I have discovered that it works better if I get away from technology; I can't read, because I forget what I read and have to back up a chapter or three.

I agree with the above. I love the color choices, especially those peachy tones and the light greens. Good job!

Great job for your first post.  I like the colors you've used here.  I really like the center flower.

I want to color. Where do I start?

Well if you don't want to spend a lot of money until you find out if you like it, I'd suggest free coloring pages you print off the internet and a relatively inexpensive set of colored pencils (I recommend rose art, craZ art or scholar)

If you want to jump in with both feet, then just pick a coloring book that you like (there are tons on amazon and places like Michael's and A.C. Moore sell them.  Our walmart even has a small selection now).   Pick up some gel pens and/or colored pencils and just start coloring!

I have some reviews of different coloring supplies on my blog.  If you click on "coloring supplies) the tag cloud on the main page, it will bring up all the entries for you.

If you have any specific questions just ask and someone will be along to answer you :)   If you start coloring and want to be added to this blog, just let me know!

I'm always impressed with yellows as its a hard colour to see when taking a pic. 

Lovely first effort I have to say and nice blend of colours too

And now, after all this time, I see a "swirl" that I missed.  Oh well.

 

But thank you all for the compliments.  It's very calming.

      She’s announced the name. And it’s . . . Arrow Chosen.

      That has to hit a new low, even for Karissa. According to earlier posts, this was Mandrae’s choice. If so, he’s every bit as crazy as his wife.

      The announcement is accompanied by a video of all the kids with their hands on her belly. 

       

      I think part of the reason is the rest of kids have An- names, except for Armor.  It makes sense they would add another Ar- name to their quiver.

      Karissa is having boy #4. Maybe this one will be Arrow? That’s a name she’s mentioned before, back when she was sure she was going to have boy twins and give birth at Target.

      Yes, that's the name.

      The King James Bible College has its first two graduates—a couple! They completed 48 courses, and they are ready for…who knows what? Maybe the NYC Tract and Street Preaching Blast June 12-15? Well, at least Malcom. Women can’t preach according to these folks. Note to self, don’t go to NYC Times Square June 12-15.

      Forty- eight! courses!  How did they complete 48 courses in less than 2 years? How long is a course? What kind of work is required to complete one? How many courses did they take at once?  I have more questions, but I'm not going to enroll.

      I know this lady gets discussed on here somewhere. I have seen bits and pieces. I love when my worlds collide. I was like oh I know her (from here) when she popped up on my feed. Holy shit. I can’t believe she named her kid that. IMG_2066.thumb.png.b5d48850cfe25509e5ca2968236ac881.png

      Lol. Her name is Theresa and she said she would nickname her Tissi. Which is only a little bit better. She never said she would call Theresa “Tess.”

      It's misleading because she's not grateful.
