Colouring Tutorial : 3 ways to Colour Leaves in Ivy and the Inky Butterfly

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Here's my colouring tutorial showing you how to colour leaves... It’s no secret that I LOVE leaves (!) so I made this quick little tutorial showing you 3 ways to colour foliage in Ivy and the Inky Butterfly. I’ve used shades of green here, but you should never feel constrained by a ‘traditional’ colour palette - go autumnal in shades of red and orange and gold or be super creative and make that foliage neon / blue / pink! Remember this is YOUR book, so colour it any way that takes your fancy! Don’t forget to upload your creations to the colouring gallery on my website or post them on social media using #inkyivy.

In this video I used:
Staedtler Ergosoft Pencils
52, 50, 38, 56
Colourless Blender Pencil
HB Pencil
A White Sakura Jelly Roll Pen

    I know this is an old video, but I love being able to go back into these and watching the tutorials. I had to buy this book again just recently because I had a housefire about a year ago now and all of my colouring books went with it. I figure though, I just get to start colouring them all over again. And, maybe even make them better this time round. So, being able to go back to these tutorials is handy.

    Thank you so much for showing this old lady how to finally color! Up until now, I have repeatedly given up in frustration because my coloring looks horrid. I'm now blending and sharing and layering like a pro...Inky butterfly book is my new start and my inner child is thrilled! I'm in love with your books and just purchased your land, sea, and sky notebooks too! And keep the tutorials coming please...

    Handy little tutorial. Simple methods but very effective. I'm loving your summer dress (and your studio). It's getting a bit chilly now, so must be even colder for you up there. So I am guessing you filmed this earlier in the year. Or you simply run the boiler hot for a filming session :-)

    Hi Johanna! Thank you for your tutorials. I just love them. The only thing I'm having trouble with is the numbers you list don't match my pencils. I don't understand that bc they're Staedtler ergosoft pencils from a 24 count pack. Do you have any suggestions? I can't seem to find a 36 count pack of pencils either. I also wanted to say I'm really enjoying coloring in Ivy & the Inky Butterfly.

    Phyllis, the 36 count is available, it's just a bit buried on Amazon. Here's a link for you: www.amazon.co.uk/Staedtler-Johanna-Ergosoft-Triangular-Colouring/dp/B01M8KBT5E/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1509754482&sr=8-1&keywords=ergosoft+36 I suspect the numbers you can't find are simply pencils from the 36 pack that you don't have in your 24. The bigger pack definitely provides more variety of colour.
