Shel's Colouring Journey

Shel's Colouring Journey

Hi Everyone!

Thank you for visiting my channel.
I am a self taught colourist, who enjoys escaping with my colouring books. I would love to share my colouring journey with as many of you as possible, with the hope that it benefits you as much as it has me.
I hope you come back now and again if you need some inspiration, someone to colour with or just to unwind with me.

Look forward to meeting you.
Happy colouring!
- Shelly

    I'm just seeing this,, to late for drawing 😢 but I just waned to say how much I appreciate you and all the inspiration you give me! Your so right, coloring is what keeps me sane! I'm a livein caretaker for a bedridden 85 yrold lady. I take care of her 24/7 4 days and 16 out of 24 the other 3. So I have all my supplies in tubs and color onmy lap. That way I can sit near her & keep her company. So sad,, the only thing she's able to do is move her head. Can't speak anymore either. But I love her to pieces. I'm so addicted! Lol I' started about a yr ago & I truly would be lost without your pics, color alongs, etc! . It's probably good that I don't have a "craft room" because I would fill it up quick! Lol anyways again, want to say thankyou for taking the time to post all your pics, videos, etc!

    Wow, it seems more artists know how everyone just loves Small Victories, and are jumping on the bandwagon with more small designs. If I am lucky, I might see this available in the USA in 3 years.....yep, we are several books behind in the USA. This company is the ONLY one that does not offer a way to get these books to the USA faster.

    Shel, please could you list / link which set of Pentel Dual Hybrid Metallic pens you have which includes the silver you used on the Swan picture? I'm looking on Amazon and can't see an obvious contender. If I have all the kit you use, I might become half as good at colouring beautifully like you. 😅

    Useful information. Many years ago I used these pens for brush lettering. But, I’ve not colored with them until now. I like the idea of basing with them in coloring books. They are the best. Even my old pens are not dry. Thank you again.

(I have some Lulu Mayo books 😍, Rita Berman and Maria Trolle) I went to 2 stores today, but they hardly had any there. Thank you very much!🙂

    Alright, I would like to correct you on the refills. They dont offer refills for all their 320 colors (over 400 with all the pastels and skin tones). They offer refills for oinly ~54 colors so far. Which is basically the reason why I'm still holding out on buying them. Just wanted to mention this here, since lots of reviewers spread the misinformation that they have refills for all their colors. Which isnt even close to reality.

    Hello Shelly. Thanks for showing your magnificent work. I bought the jewelry box coloring book, but I don't know how to make it lay flat. Any suggestions? Also, I think in one of your videos, you stated that you don't prep your pages (Gesso, etc). However, that beautiful page that you mentioned that didn't bleed through and you wanted to color the back page...I believe if you don't prep the new page, it will cause anything water soluble to reactive on the previous page. Now, that's what I learned from someone in the Bible Journaling community. Take care and tfs

  • @shelscolouringjourney
    @shelscolouringjourney2 күн бұрын

    Hello! Thank you so much for sharing regarding the breed through! I will keep that in mind 🤗 With regards to making the book lay flat, you would have to crack the spine to make it lay flat - push down at the middle to break the spine. It is a bit harder with hardback books though and I don’t usually like doing this though, and usually as I colour, the book begins to lay flat. Hope this helps 🤗💗
