Day 12. Colored Pencils

challenge_graphic-nov16_16x24

Hello friends, Happy weekend to you.. I hope it’s happy one  🙂

img_1994

Today’s coloring was inspired by EunJi Jung. EunJi designed a series of beautiful floral stamps plus a book of illustrations. I love using her book as a guide on shading and adding color & I love coloring her stamps. img_1993

During my last challenge I colored another one of her beautiful stamps check it out here and totally copied her coloring. These are the colored pencils that I have been using.

I feel like I need to say it again but, I am really overwhelmed by what you all are doing. So inspired on so many levels. Thanks for taking this challenge with me. Feeling grateful….yes that’s me.

Have a creative day and thanks for your visit. See you tomorrow. Hugs, Kathy

P.S. There are now 3 ways to share what you are coloring. If you want to join a community of coloring enthusiasts I recommend  FaceBook or Instagram. Be sure to tag me and use the hashtag #thedailymarker30day. Kids & young adults use #thedailymarker30daykids.

The 3rd way is to link up to my blog to share your coloring. Click here .. You will find the Inlinkz button at the bottom of the post.

P.S.S.  If you’re new to the coloring challenge or have any questions about the coloring challenge you can refer to this post.

    This is absolutely gorgeous, Kathy! You inspire me in SO many ways! We just returned from a two-week visit to Arizona. For the very first time ever, I packed art supplies for a trip so that I could still participate in the 30 Day Challenge. It was such fun to play with the Art Impressions Watercolor Southwest stamps, with cacti and mountains all around me. I will always cherish my relaxing afternoons, sitting outside in the shade while watercoloring. I can’t thank YOU enough, Kathy!! ♡
