COMPLETED COLOURING PAGES | JANUARY 2024 | ADULT COLOURING

[@diamondslashranch]

I can’t pick a favorite page yours are all so beautiful. Your father’s pages are amazing for a beginner! We think we have to have all these things and he did this with just a few pencils. Love it.

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much! 🤗💗

[@casey31652]

If you surround brights with more brights, nothing stands out. Surrounded by a deep dark, they shine. I like your darker backgrounds a lot.

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you 🤗💗

[@likeamystic9347]

Wow, very inspired by your dad! Thanks for sharing!

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you! So glad you found it inspiring 🤗💗

[@missybiblio4673]

I love the flip through of your dad's book. So interesting that since he did them in order you can see his skill progression

[@Sullykitten555]

Your dad did an amazing job! His colour choices are great! Your pages are beautiful as always, so vibrant and rich :)

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much! 🤗💗

[@tree592]

You are such an amazing colorist! All the pages are gorgeous, and I love the backgrounds. Your father is doing a fantastic job!

[@clairewalters8238]

❤ Gorgeous pages Shel. I love your Fragile World penguin page. Loved your Dads pages, amazing ❤❤❤

[@clairewalters8238]

Wow. I was writing my previous comment & you started showing your Dads book that he has completed & it was truly amazing. He is going to love the 120 set of Albrecht Druher watercolour pencils as they are the best pencils wet or dry. I hope you give him a Kerby book as he even did a great job with the white posca. I have had a set of Albrecht Druher since I was 20 but I never activated them until I got the full 120 set in 2019. Because he travels ALOT you could introduce him to a 0 blender alcohol marker for easy activation. I do that all the time & I have never had a problem with any bleed through. Your Dad has done an amazing job, well done. Thank you for sharing his completed book I enjoyed it so so much. Much love & *Virtual hugs* xxx

[@lesleyanne241]

Hi I’m way behind with my viewing. Your father has done a wonderful job with his colouring and how great he’s doing his own thing. You are right to be proud of him.

[@lynnjoburns4114]

WOW Shel stunningly AWSOME love the Kirby n Amazon n also Rita Your dad’s colouring is really good,that’s where u have got your talent from…….Thankyou for sharing n Happy Colouring ❤💖💖💖

[@nicolemarie011]

Talent must run in your family, your Dad's coloring is fantastic! Especially that he hasn't watched any tutorials and he just started coloring. Amazing work, Dad! That is really wonderful that you share this hobby with your father. It is always difficult to pick just one page of yours, because they are ALL so stunning! I have to say the Mythographic, pink background page really popped, very beautiful. And yes, the Kerby page is excellent! That is a favorite page of mine in that book, so lovely to see you color it so beautiful! I also love your pages in the witches books. Those pages really pop, very well done! Thank you for sharing your Dad's wonderful pages and your pages as well! ❤

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much, so glad you liked our pages!! Loved colouring the Mythographic page, hope I can get more done in that book this season 🤗💗

[@lottiewhatever]

I can't wait to see more of the hedgehogs in the mythographic book! I think all your pages are beautiful, but I love the colours in that one 🥰 Also, your Dad's a natural at colouring! I hope you can show us a bit more of his colouring journey if he continues 😁 He must have so much patience and determination to colour a book from front to back like that!

[@janesimpson177]

Love your golden leaves. Your dads pictures are brilliant, and when he looks back at them, he'll be reminded of his travels. Xx

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thanks so much 😊💗

[@bubbletip9836]

Wow, how cool to have a little color buddy both of your collections yours and his are absolutely beautiful❤❤

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much 🤗💗

[@kellyweston2136]

Your experiments are way better than me, at my best! You are very talented and have an amazing artistic eye!

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Wow, thank you so much 🤗💗

[@VeehattInspired]

Beautiful pages K… your father has accomplished something most of us haven’t in his early coloring journey - finishing a book! Love his work as well 😊

[@sherrydennewitz5011]

Shel, The Completed Book, Colored by Your Dad is Absolutely Gorgeous and Amazing Work! 😍👏👏👏 Congratulations to Him!👍🏻💜

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much! 🤗💗

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you 🤗💗

[@Donnistill]

Wow. Your dad is great for a beginner! Can't wait to see his work a year from now.

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you! 🤗💗

[@charlotteking2896]

Fantastic body of work, Shel. I'm also very impressed with your dad's coloring. It's wonderful that you can share this with each other. I can tell he has watched your tutorial on the different wood colors that you did. I can see in his work where he uses what he has learned from you. Enjoy your time with your parents. It goes by so fast.♥♥♥

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much! I really don’t think he follows my tutorial videos 😂 I think he may be a natural! He just finished his 2nd colouring book as well 🤗💗

[@tralijntje1540]

how lovely you can share a hobby with your dad and not be even in the same country .loved his finnished book ,well done mr shel s dad !

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much!! It’s lovely that he has taken to the hobby, and most of all, he is enjoying it 🤗💗

[@oozy.]

I am so impressed with your dad's coloring! He's done so well. I can't even finish an entire page. I get bored or I feel that I messed up the color scheme. But I think I'm gonna just finish no matter the outcome. Just so I can have finished pieces. But yeah so impressed with his coloring and dedication! 😊❤

[@eileenduckett3012]

Lovely to see your dads work and a shared hobby

[@DanahsColoringObsession]

Beautiful pages Shelly! I think my favorite was your Rita Berman page. Thank you so much for sharing your Dad's finished book with us! He did so well! I absolutely love that he is coloring with you!

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much Danah (really late in catching up with comments 😂) 💗

[@jenell705]

Very impressive Shel’s Dad. His lemon tree page is perfection. My first coloring page was Jade Summer’s CBN flowers. I loved your snake page. There’s something about pink and green together that makes me happy. Talent definitely runs in your family. Well done!

[@lunaluna5231]

Great work in January, Shel! I love the Paula Brun's page, it's gorgeous. Thanks for sharing with us your dad's completed book, he already has his own style, I loved his pages.

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much 🤗💗

[@kaleidoscopiccolours]

Beautiful pages as always! Thank you for sharing your dad's colouring too. I'm impressed with what he accomplished with a small set of pencils! I'd love to see more of your dad's colouring in the future if possible.

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much! He just finished another Teresa Goodridge book!! So when he visits the UK next, I hope to be able to share it with guy all too. It will be a long time before I can complete a book myself 😂💗

[@juliedrewett1445]

Lovely pages, great to see your Dads colouring too, looking forward to seeing more of his pages in the future

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much! He just completed his 2nd book - I will share it when he visits UK next 🤗💗

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much 🤗💗

[@Elmcolors]

Beautiful pages as always! And I love that your dad is coloring. How sweet ❤️ Thanks for sharing, Shelly ☺️

[@silvers_ink]

I really enjoyed seeing your dad's finished pages! I can't believe he completed the whole coloring book so quickly! I know you've said that you're a slow colorist and I am the same way, so it would take you and I ages to complete that book! 😂 Thank you for sharing his finished pages with us! I'm very impressed with his skill level! Tell him I said he did a wonderful job, bravo! 👏😊

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much!! He has just finished another Teresa Goodridge book recently….when he visits the UK next I will make sure to share it with you all! 🤗💗

[@silvers_ink]

Hello Shell Gosh your work is stunning. Amazone is such a special book your page is superb. So lovely to see your Dad's work. So so enjoyable Thankyou💞💞

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much! 🤗💗

[@kirstendecoster3201]

Hi, you coloured lovely pages again. I especially loved the background of the mermaids book and the pink dragon. Your dad is an amazing colourist too, his style reminds me a bit of loose watercolour, very pretty.

[@E_artstudios]

Your pages are always so beautiful, I feel like I could never do some of my pages justice like you do

[@MindfulInk]

The picture of the snake in amazone impressed me. It looks like a digital Image. Absolutely overthelming. Thank you for sharing the colorings of your father. They look beautiful. He is talented like you.

[@julescote1439]

Hi Shel from across the pond, I'm new to channel, wanted to let you know how much I ❤ your coloring. My mother had been coloring from the early 90's, she finally got me on board to color in 99-or-00. It was a hobby we shared (until her passing in 22) Im sorry I digress having a loved one to share coloring with is fortunate. Very impressed with what your father accomplished looks great for a new colorist👏. One thing I wanted to mention I know how Albert Duers are a favorite for you, however if you've never tried the Stadler karat I believe you'd be quiet impressed. I also use Albert Duers, Pablos, Carand'Ache muesum aquarelle, Luminescence, Prisma, Holbein etc...and would still recommend the Stadler Karat, they color smooth & creamy like butter, and with water applied the way they take water is a dream. They are also under 100.00 Better stop here this got much longer than I intended sorry 'bout that😅

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Hello and welcome to the channel (sorry for such a delayed reply to comments)! I hope you continue to enjoy my colouring and videos. I am so sorry to hear about your mum, I can not begin to imagine how you much you must miss her. I hope colouring gives you a l it the escape and you enjoy your journey. Thank you for sharing your suggestions, really appreciate it! 🤗💗

[@leonieduplessis4467]

[@kendraboese493]

P.S. your father should start his own coloring channel 💯

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much!! 🤗💗

[@charityariverpixie998]

Oh your Dads’ book is just gorgeous ❤,I wonder if he’ll do one of your colour alongs one day ! My Amazon paper does that wrinkly thing too , I thought maybe it was because I do a lot of pencil layering 🤷‍♀️. I honestly don’t know how you get your inktense to work so beautifully on the Rita Berman paper !! I’ve not enjoyed them on her paper , I’ll give it another go ! I absolutely love your Hannah Karlzon wip it’s beautiful ❤! Xx

[@valeriel3103]

Love your father's book. He did an amazing job! Thank you for sharing with us. I couldn't have done it with so few pencils, I'd need that 120 set. Lol. I hope he will share more with us!

[@RachelHendersonColouring]

[@colourandthecity]

Lovely pages! I would love to see a colouralong with the Inktense!

[@shelscolouringjourney]

[@crossstitchbutton]

Thanks so much 😊💗

[@jeanetteoconnor6036]

Fantastic pages as always, my favourite is your penguin page followed by your snake one in Paul's Brun's Amazon's which happens to be one of my favourite books. Your dad's colouring is fantastic, he has a very good eye.

[@shelscolouringjourney]

[@sharonthompson1363]

Hi Shelly, beautiful beautiful pages again. I can't find a fave, they are all wonderful! I do have a video request though. I wonder if you might perhaps consider showing how and what you do/use to protect your beautiful colouring, especially the unactivated watercolour pencil ones. Love love love your channel.

[@wendyscolouring]

Super pages as always, xx❤

[@anathegr8est]

Beautiful pages, conrats to your dad :)

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much! 🤗💗

[@Donnistill]

He may like the summer scenes One from theresa G. Has some more manly landscapes. One with a car also.

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Yes, I will recommend it to him. He just finished his 2nd Teresa book - ‘Wish you were here’. He definitely enjoys her work!! 🤗💗

[@pnmp7844]

your pages are gorgeous as usual but your dad's! how special is that?!

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much! 🤗💗

[@silvers_ink]

Lovely finished pages as always! Your coloring is so beautiful! I was wondering, what colors are you using for the skeleton bones from your WIP in Mythographic Dream Weaver?

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you so much, sorry it took me long to answer this question, but hope the combo I shared was helpful 🤗💗

[@silvers_ink]

@@shelscolouringjourney Oh I totally understand, no need to apologize!😊 Did you share the color combo in this video?

[@shelscolouringjourney]

@@silvers_ink No I think I replied to you on another video sharing it to you when you asked there. Hope you got it 🤗

[@silvers_ink]

@@shelscolouringjourney Oh ok! I will go back and look for it! Thanks love!

[@cindyvisser4088]

Hi Shelly all pages are beautiful 😊 do you have to spray the soft pastels before you colour over them? 💜 your Dad’s book is beautiful too.

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Hi Cindy, I would recommend spraying the soft pastels, yes. Only reason being, when you are colouring, you may end up spreading the pastel over the rest of the page. So worth setting it. Thank you, proud of Dad for sure! 🤗💗

[@cindyvisser4088]

Thank you😊

[@Mrsbooklover]

Hi Shelly, gorgeous pages, quick question please, do you spray all your finished pictures with a fixative or only the ones with pastels on them?

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Hello! Thank you!…yes I tend to spray all my pages whether it has soft pastels or not…as long as there pencil work on it 🤗💗

[@NoDontLikeIt]

Beautiful pages and backgrounds! How do you match(or coordinate) your Ohuhu markers with your pencils?

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you! Hmm I tend to use shades lighter than my pencils so my pencils show over the top. A highlight colour will be the lightest shade I want, in the marker. Hope this helps 🤗💗

[@NoDontLikeIt]

@@shelscolouringjourney I believe I understand, will try it out and see. Thanks :)

[@sueduggan4072]
