10 MORE TIPS for coloring! Watch it now: kzread.info/dash/bejne/aGaFs5mhcrLMl6g.html

My sister is an art teacher with a very low budget. Each student only received 6 markers. So she taught them how to use colored pencils over markers to create gradients and even new colors. She said they were all amazed and loved the technique!!!

That’s my favorite technique as well!

Reminds me on vacation i was helping 5 year old girl with a coloring :) (spa owner's daughter) . She had a coloring book with princesses and "magic" patterns revealed by coloring with a marker ... but not everywhere which she found boring. I showed her she can add her own patterns as well, add additional jewelry to the princesses etc ... What a fun :D . Coloring with a kid is even better than adult coloring :) .

Hi Sarah! I recently retired, and will be 69 in a month. I bought an adult coloring book, sort of hippy stuff, and did my first one yesterday, a group of magic mushrooms. Just color, no shades, no gradients, but having watched this video, I will be getting my act together, and maybe revisiting the first one I did. Thanks!

I like using sepia for shadows, too. It will blend with almost every colour if you use it properly - light, very light layers and blening with slightly darker shades than your main colour.

Hi Sarah, I’m so happy I stumbled on your video this evening. I have recently broke my leg and coloring is keeping me happy and inspired. I decided to use this time to improve my coloring skills and oh my goodness this video and YOU are heaven sent. The wag you lay out information makes me feel so supported. Thank you so much! You have a new subscriber here and I also joined your FB group, I’m excited to watch more of your videos

You, and many other art channels have inspired me, and many others, to just pick up the tools and start!

I have used the white marker for some detail but not to it’s full potential...never thought of the white edge line! Thanks!

I'm so grateful for your videos! Today, I've watched 3 shadow videos and I started working in the shading and shadowing and my flower petals are coming to life! I'm using Arteza pencils while I wait for the Caran D Ache pencils to arrive. Thank you so much. I enjoy how you teach. Have a wonderful day!

New here, this is my first video. Great tips and I love your voice. I could listen to you all day. I’m going to pull out my books and pencils now. I’m really in the mood to color. Thank you, great tips.

You are awesome Sarah ! Thanks so much for ur teaching

Thank you .... you have been so helpful. Again a big thank 😊

Great video and very helpful. Thank you so much!!!

Thanks for the coloring tips. I’ve been using some cheap colored pencils from when my now-grown kids were little and they don’t blend or cover well. I’m looking forward to seeing what I can do with better pencils soon.

I truly love your videos! So glad I found your channel! I instantly subscribed. Can't wait to get better at colouring and now I know how to introduce my Copics to my colouring thanks to you!💖👏

Thanks for the great videos! Another good tip is to use complementary colors for shadows instead of black (which can make some colors go greenish)

Loved this video, it's reignited a passion for adult coloring books. What great tips you have! Thanks so much.

Another help is if you are using a color palette and you are not comfortable enough to eyeball it. And use a color pencil picker app or marker picker app to match colors from palette. I did at first til I got more comfortable

I appreciate this knowledge thanks for sharing

I also use Crayola crayons for the base. After using them, I scratch the surface, leaving just the color and then shade with a colored pencil. The shading requires a bit more pressure but the effect is quite good 🙂

Hi Sarah, thanks for this videos, i love doing graphite, charcoal and ink, now i feel like it's time for adding color to my ink drawings, this helps a lot for that

Thank you so much!

Super, super amazing!! Love the whole picture of the girl with long hair. Love the idea of using sparkling eyeshadow- wow; who would have thunk 🤣

I don’t have colouring pages but I will surely use many of these tips

I love tip 1, I've been doing that for a long time now when I'm colouring with the kids and they just love the effect, my daughter is even trying to do this to now, after I explained it to her this summer. Of course she is still struggeling with pressure, but she loves the improvement. She first did shading with black or grey pencil, but with a darker colour she loves it so much more. What I like to try next is blending colours that are next to each other in the colour wheel, cause I really loved your example page.

The Color Catalog - it’s on my website at sarahrenaeclark.com/color-palettes

I’m not a beginner in adult coloring. I’m a fetus. I have all the supplies I need. I bought both your catalogs. It’s so intimidating to see the coloring that is out there. Keep the tutorials coming. I know I’ll get better with practice. I’ve watched more KZread videos than I have practiced coloring. I sit down with everything I need an suddenly I feel overwhelmed. I get up and walk away. Everyday the cycle repeats itself. I’ve spent years art and Bible journaling as well as card making. Coloring is completely different. I subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to learning. I have unsubscribed to some videos 1-2 hours 😬 that’s a lecture. Thanks

+JuJu and WamWams well, you’ve got the supplies so you’re off to a good start! I know the feeling of being intimidated and wanting to give up. I find that I’m the same when I take on something unfamiliar and I want to do it well. I remember when I first wanted to try acrylic painting, I was so frustrated that I prepared everything 3 times on separate days before actually painting! And I was so mad at myself for not starting! As always, the best thing is to just START and don’t be afraid to fail. I find it’s SO much easier if you embrace the mistakes, even before they happen. Start a piece with the goal to learn, not the goal for perfection. By the end, if you’ve made a mistake, you’ll still have learned something, so you’ve achieved your goal. But most likely, you’ll also have developed a skill, surprised yourself, and created something beautiful. I’d love to hear how you go- please keep me updated!

I felt the same way about watercolor. I bought all the expensive brushes, paints and paper and then froze. The way I solved it was to make myself do a warmup page every day. I’d pull out a page from my cheap watercolor pad and just do circles and squares. I’d play for a while, layer on top, and fill up the page. It suddenly wasn’t a hard task to move on to something more difficult.

Can u do a video of improving colouring with brush pen

can you use a light layer of a complimentary, like greyed lavender for yellow?

Hi. I love that you're creating a guide for which Copic codes match the colours in the catalogue! That will be extremely helpful to me and means I will use the catalogue more often! Maybe even get version 2! I would also love a list for Holbein pencils, but I'm hoping I can find a conversion chart from Prismacolors, which you said you'll be listing, too, to Holbeins.

13 but a lot were guesses. The last one was a challenge.

Can you add Ohuhu marker numbers to that as well? I just invested in the ENTIRE collection of the Alcohol set of Ohuhu brand Markers, they are WAY cheeper than Copics, but work near the same! I just bought the 320 color chisel/fine dual tip set, and the 216 color brush/fine dual dip set. I wanted all the colors, but they only came as chidel/fine, but then i also wanted the largest set in brush tip.... I already owned the brush/fine dual tip skin & hair color 30 marker set, it was the first thing in the brand i bought & fell in love with. It's why i decided to invested in the larger marker sets. Copics were just way out of my budget.

I like the color catalog, but do you have an additional resource that pairs the palettes with how to make it with popular media like Prisma colors, Poly Chromos, Ink Tense Gelly Rolly's, and various others. I am not a beginner either but I find the most difficult issue outside of maintaining the proper light source, is mixing the or blending properly so you get that correct palette and then choosing your shading tools and technique right (cool, warm or french grays, white and black) to ensure you don't end with mud or picture too dark.
