Pages that I completed in March 2024 - let's take a look!
If you'd like to skip the intro with the birds :) you can go to about the 2:30 mark.
Thank you again to @ZucchiniKitty Karen for inspiring my muted vintage colour palette! This is the video of hers that was the inspiration. :)

Yes to all you said about impressionism while showing the Lulu Mayo page! If the image isn’t drawn in a realism style I am all for playing with different techniques and methods, because the finished result isn’t meant to be like a photograph. Great month of colouring and I loved seeing the snow and birds outside your window ❤ and yes! to letting go, no planning and going for it! It’s great to see all the different ways that people approach their colouring - it would be boring if we all did it the same way 😂
So glad you liked the video (and my experimenting :)). Thanks so much! :)
I love the Rita Berman bunny.
Thanks so much! :)
I enjoyed seeing your pages. I just am not going to ever be one of the people that can make each page stunningly beautiful so I just have fun everyday with every page😂
Great outlook - I'll definitely take that to heart! :)
I absolutely love you. You sound just like me. I have close to 100 coloring books and I’ve only colored the title page to Lulu Mayo’s A Million Magical Creatures too. I’m like I can’t color in my coloring books, I don’t know how to color!!! What if I mess them up, what if I don’t like it, what if I want to do it again. And oh my gosh, if it’s one of the good ones. I’m a paramedic, I’m like do you know how many years I trained before I went off by myself. I can’t just Willy nilly go off coloring, I have to be perfect when I start. IG ready. Then I’m like wait, didn’t you start this for relaxation. And now you’re too stressed to make a mistake to start coloring the page. Yep, so now I’m a collector, lol. I just came back to ColorTube after a 3 year break so hopefully I do better this time. I just wanted to say I love your personality and coloring!!
I’ve started copying some of the pages I want to work on, just because I know I’ll want to do it again later. It’s a thought, especially for the “I’m not good at coloring, I know I’ll mess it up” people like me. Lol. Plus, I have lupus (and severe arthritis) among other illnesses, and I’m often shaky, so it lets me color and have fun while not having to worry that my book is going to look like a 3 year old got into it😬. I’m also a collector-I know this coloring fad is going to end some day, so I’ll either have my books to color in then or just admire
@@NoDontLikeIt I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia when I was 16. Along with a list of other illnesses. Plus I added a few neck injuries. And 3 tears in the shoulder of my writing arm. So I can't physically do it for very long. Which I discovered after I bought all this stuff. I'm mean, it's coloring, how hard can it be right. lol. Yeah, sometimes 10 minutes and I'm done. So that's been a large part of why I haven't started too. I have a scanner program on my phone which is my plan to use when I get around to coloring. I don't want to cut pages out of my book and it's so hard to copy a page on a printer if it's still in the book, so the scanner program takes a picture and turns it into a PDF file. Then I also don't have tons of pages laying around everywhere too.
@@michellerenee3415 ah, gosh, you sound like you’ve been through so much too! Thanks for the tip about the scanner app-my printer came with one (though there are others out there that are probably better) but I hadn’t really given it much thought for some reason, so I’ll have to look into it.
@@NoDontLikeIt I use Adobe scan. It even has a feature to scan a book where it will separate the one picture of both pages into 2 separate documents. I have an Android but my brother has an iPhone and uses it for work all the time and recommended it to me.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing! Glad you found the channel! :)
I am just like you Michelle, i am a perfectionist, so i don’t dare to color in my beautifull coloringbooks. I start to make a list on my ipad of all my coloringbooks and with a numer picker i choose a book and i said to myself: you are color in this one…. I did once….😅 yet….
I bought a number of the learn how to color books. I said I was going to do those first then I could color in my coloring books, but I put coloring aside for a few years and am just picking it up again. Starting with How to Color Like an Artist. I keep saying I'll do color alongs but I feel like I don't know the techniques enough to follow along yet. So I bought the books.
Good for you for trying!!!
@@michellerenee3415 I can color, i know how to blend and i can do. According to my family and friends i color beautiful, but you know i’m a perfectionist and i like to learn a lot. I try to find my style and i’m trying out what i like and dislike. I have a couple of small books to practice, and slowly i try my other books. Don’t worry we wil learn enjoy…😊
Connie, great job on the Maria Trolle & the Lulu Mayo pages, my favorites, I have a day job as well, & color when & what I feel.
Thank you so much! :)
All good work. Best is the last one with the gold eggs. And the bunny was great, too.
Thank you so much! :)
I grew up with Easter meaning skiing trips in the mountains. I have experienced Easter in Spring weather with outdoor egg hunts, but for me Easter will forever be associated with snow.
Thanks for sharing! :)
Beautiful pages! I love the soft colors you have used on most of your images! Very beautiful! 💕
Thank you so much, Amberle! :)
Hi Conny! I like you Conny! You do you and you do a great job! You inspired me to try my neglected waterbased markers and Pit pens once again and i am not that good as you but i need some practice…. I am a perfectionist and i think that’s the reason my Pitt pens are bleeding trough, i am going over and over and over again…😁😁. I wish i could let it go…
I completely understand - so glad you're keeping on working with the Pitt Pens! :)
@@colouringchemist i tryed them on smoother paper, and you are right, that’s easier to blend. So i work with them on smaller spacer or go over with pencils when they are streaky. Thank you Connie for the advice! My husband is glad that i no longer grumble about my Pit pen’s 😆😆
I’ve never seen a live Woodpecker… You have done well…I’ve only done 4 in Mythographic Fairy in March…❤
Thanks so much! :)
You are so creative, I loved your pages, I'm working in nightfall rn in Maria trolle , it's my first page! Great video❤ and yes, girl, let your coloring be fun, stress free ,and don't worry about perfection, leave that for your job and let this be your fun space, when you are having fun it really shows, your pages were beautiful ❤
Awww... thank so much for chiming in! :)
I miss the snow, but at the same time I don’t. Definitely glad I move to British Columbia. Your pages are super cute I love the bunny one from cute mandalas I should have done that one haha. I really need to work in that book. I also loved your bunny page from Rita Bermans book! It’s super Easter I love it!
Thank you - so glad you enjoyed the video! :)
Thank you for the outdoor start to the video! It's so pretty and peaceful looking.
I love that you just let go and let yourself have fun - I need to try that. I go through a whole process, which generally includes staring at the page for half an hour or so, lol. Your coloring this month was awesome! I love the double page - that pearlescent background is gorgeous. The eggs page with the Zuchinni Kitty color palette is my favorite, but I love them all! You are really stretching your creative self and it's fun to watch! Thank you for the great video Connie.
So glad you enjoyed watching! I did have so much fun experimenting! :)
i love that you always share your thought process on everything! amazing work!
So glad you like my ramblings! :)
I loved seeing all your pages 😊 TFS.
I just restarted making TH-cam videos :)
You're very welcome! And welcome back to TH-cam! :)
Hi Connie loved seeing the birds so cute, so nice to see out your window. It has reached 18 degrees today where I am in B.c way to warm for now. We have not much snow this winter. Your pages are beautiful.😊💜
So glad you liked it! :)
Wow you're pages are beautiful x
Thank you so much, Lucy!! I absolutely adore your channel! :)
@@colouringchemist I've just found yours and I'm loving it so thank you back 💓
Hi Connie, your pages are beautiful, each and every one. You are so like me about being scared to colour in books, it’s like they are too precious to colour in 😂. I have been known to cut pages out that I’ve fluffed up!!! You are right with your thought process about Lulu Mayo books, I’m taking that on board. It’s lovely seeing the snow ❄️, here in the far south of the UK it’s a very rare occurrence for us to have snow, I always get excited if they forecast snow, then I’m peering out the window all night 😂
The snow is lovely. :) I'm ready for spring, now, though - and you folks have the most gorgeous spring seasons in the UK! So glad you found my video helpful! :)
I purchased my first lulu mayo book yesterday and decided to approach it the same way you are before I watched this video. Great minds… lol
Great minds, indeed! :) Enjoy your colouring!
I need to move there! I love snow and I hate warm weather :D
We do get some hot weather in the summertime (sometimes up around 30+C) but overall, I love the climate we have here. :)
Hello Connie the Daler and Rowney inks you use are they Waterbased or acrylic ink.💞
They are the pearlescent acrylic inks - here is a link to them on Dick Blick's website: www.dickblick.com/products/daler-rowney-fw-pearlescent-liquid-acrylic-artists-inks/
I didn't know they already released the Art & Graphic Twin with another brush tip. Mine have their rubber nib, which does feel very strange at first, but I actually like using it, and is especially handy with stamps. I knew they were gonna release some other versions, like one with a "real brush" tip, but didn't know about this tip. Should try one of those when I have a colour running out. I also like their ink in them, juicy but controllable, and with some texture. And indeed, water-based markers are fun, and the additional texture and not perfect blended look can be very great. It adds to the colouring. Alcohol markers can be very flat and meh. Some great colourings in there, and nice colouring combos, especially the pink and yellow :)
The Art & Graphic Twin markers I have do have the foam rubber tips - my apologies if that was confusing. :) It's a gorgeous tip and the only water-based pens I've ever seen that don't have a fiber/felt tip. I did see the real brush tips on the Marker Supply website - I'd be curious about them, too. :)
And thanks so much for the kind words! :)
@@colouringchemist I did read somewhere that the Tombow ones also had them long ago. In my head, foam is like different than rubber, hence the confusion. Not a native speaker 😀
@@DieterPrivate No worries at all, Dieter! It's my fault for not being clear. :) And that's interesting about the old Tombow markers - thanks for sharing!
Hello Connie. Gosh what a beautiful setting you have. I have never seen or touched snow. Your pages are beautiful. Connie In your opinion the Tombow Waterbased dual tipped markers and the Zig Art and Graphic markers the pigment content is it the same. Sorry to be a bother🌷🌷🌷
No bother at all! They both use dye-based, water-based inks but the colour selection is slightly different between the two products (Tombow has 108 pens and the Zig Art and Graphic have 80 pens). I think the nibs are different, too - the Tombow pens feel like they have a felt/fiber-type of brush nib but the Zig pens feel like they have a foam nib.
Hope that helps! :)
Hello Connie Thankyou so much for getting back to me💕💕💕
@@robynbroderick6822 You're very welcome!
I looked on Amazon for the pens. Are they the Kuretake Zig Clean Color Real Brush? Had a set of 90 and an add on set of 30 which looked like all blues and greens.
The Zig pens that I mentioned are the Art and Graphic Twin markers (not the ones with the real brush tips :)). These are the ones: www.amazon.com/Kuretake-illustrating-cartooning-Professional-AP-Certified/dp/B01G3MORH0/ref=sr_1_5?crid=1D33BLZMH5P56&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.lVwfQRj1HODKhcf7QP4VexmIZJ73MXocjSFM0cl1NaOMiesNncN3MuODLxD5ogOdXwZlTxFluDrY8VYlL-mirH_GbYm0l7rpAeFBIIWL1HxC8JgN7Kaed3ml8XKI7zlHZ-LHE40jtGBK57xbjo6bgt8LJhgnh-7WGZMZrMFpuljhE0x4jAoHcDkmKLfN_qVAGBISZkEKi45AU6QdOSLBcx_-THmLJFIu_Ts-2wq-_OLld9JOAgne022adNW5so3Kh6znJ5vL3z9nFXlMsBG0359zNDlLN5TBRfVHfEoAtp4.lDdqb9IXhzUonrfcNkCBEHILQabtopQ3esJFyr8pc_4&dib_tag=se&keywords=zig+art+and+graphic+twin+markers&qid=1712466114&sprefix=zig+art+%2Caps%2C156&sr=8-5
Hope that helps!
Thanks for taking the time to answer my question. I would have purchased the wrong ones.
@@janeteggleston4764 You're very welcome! :)
Beautiful colouring pages hun ❤❤❤😊😊😊xxxx
As living in north tropical 🌴 Queensland Australia all my life in Townsville Easter we don’t hide the eggs in the yard we have Easter 🐣 baskets 🧺 in the fridge as if the kids are trying to find eggs and the bunnies 🐰 they will melt and ants will get into them I’ve always wondered what it was like to find the chocolate my kids ask every year if we can find our eggs.. I’ve never seen a woodpecker before they are cute 🥰 the snow ⛄️ looks amazing and cold 🥶 I’ve never seen snow only frost in New England area in northern New South Wales near Tamworth hear in Australia.. thank you for sharing your part of the world it looks beautiful it’s autumn 🍂 hear and it’s still to hot 🥵 muggy and sweaty 🥵 weather..
So glad you liked it! :) And thank you!
Beautiful pages
Thank you so much! :)
Really cool!
Glad you liked it! :)
Fun pages… ❤
Glad you liked them! :)
Hi, I really love your Lulu Mayo page! I have trouble colouring in her books too, but you've given me new ideas. That palette you used in the Rita Berman books is gorgeous too. I didn't know markers worked so well in her books. And you did a great job with the Maria Trolle pages. Happy to hear you were able to let go and that you had so much fun. ❤
So glad you got some inspiration from the video! :) I can't take credit for that beautiful colour palette - I borrowed that from Karen at @ZucchiniKitty. She's an AMAZING artist! :)
@@colouringchemistHello again 😊. I got me some of those acrylic inks, but I could use some directions on how to use them. Your page is nice and even, but mine are very streaky. I tried very thin layers and thicker layers, but I can't get it even. It's like the colour immediately soaks into the page where I put my brush down. I dampened my brush at the start, but not every time I picked up ink, only when it started to feel a bit dry. Any recommendations?
@@kirstendecoster3201 It could be the type of paper. I was using them on the smoother Maria Trolle paper (and I still had to fiddle with putting them on pretty thick and going back over spots to get a relatively smooth coverage (it's not totally smooth - it just looks that way on camera :)). If you're trying them on a rougher paper, you might need to put down a thicker layer, let it dry completely, and then put down another thicker layer to see how that works. I'm finding more and more that paper quality/type makes so, so much difference in using different supplies - I'm hoping to do a video on that soon. :)
@@colouringchemist Thanks, that helps! Maybe I should try in a Maria Trolle book then to see if it works better. I was also thinking I could apply a layer of satin glazing liquid first, but maybe the ink will slide too much then. We'll see, let's experiment!
@@kirstendecoster3201 You're welcome! You could also try putting down an under-layer of acrylic brush pen first. I know that Wendy (Wendy's Colouring) does that underneath her metallic watercolour paint so that the paint isn't so streaky. Choose a colour of acrylic brush pen that's in the same colour family as your acrylic ink but a bit lighter - it should give a coloured "backing" for the metallic acrylic ink instead of just the white paper. I've never tried that technique but it might work! :)
