I always wish I could color like you……you do such beautiful work🌷🥰🌷

[@ColouringwithK]

Thanks so much! 😊❤️

[@gagaforgluing8247]

Beautiful book, now added to my wishlist. I don't know why you put yourself down. You are in the top 3 of my favourite colourists. If I could ever learn to be as good as you I would be happy ❤❤

[@karinswartz3046]

That's what I love about K! She is very different from the others on KZbin because she expresses how we often feel with our own colouring. I never see someone like Zucchini Kitty sweat because she never shows or tells us about her struggles. I like how genuine she comes across to us and that's why you keep tuning in. :) I agree she is hard on herself at times, but aren't we all?🙃🤣😊

[@gagaforgluing8247]

@@karinswartz3046 yes I totally agree. I've only recently subbed to K, so I've been going through her older videos from when she started her channel and I find her videos so calming and relaxing and informative. Sometimes I'll watch her videos most of the day. She's the sort of KZbinr I could imagine being friends with. I look up to her so much and shes made me realise that you can do so much more with colouring books than I originally thought. Think I need to start a We love K fan club xxx 😃🥰🥰

[@ColouringwithK]

Aww thank you so much, such kind and sweet words and I truly appreciate it. I am happy with most of my pages, but I still go through the doubts and insecurities, that’s just how I am! Whenever I start a page, I am always nervous. I want to do the best I can, I’ve always been like that. Thanks again all of you for your kindness xx

[@gagaforgluing8247]

@@ColouringwithK I actually think your my favourite colourist. Probably because we both love shiny and glittery things. I haven't plucked up the courage to try other mediums on my pages yet because I'm scared of messing it up. I think I just need to take the plunge and do it. Thankyou for being such an inspiration to me and others. I get excited everytime you upload a video xxx

[@beadiebaby75]

I have both of these books, but haven’t started in them yet. I do like the flowers that you have started. Thank you for sharing this, I love watching flips of the same book by different colorists because I get different ideas from different people…and the pictures are so beautiful I don’t mind seeing them multiple times!

[@ColouringwithK]

Thanks so much. The art work is so beautiful in these books that it’s quite common to feel nervous about starting a page in them and that’s why I thought I’d do it on camera so then I’ll feel compelled to finish it! 😊

[@janlorman7700]

With the Lilly of the valley and the fiddlehead ferns, that is a springtime picture. Lovely artwork. Look forward to seeing it finished. 👍

[@cheryl6716]

I thought the exact same thing about the Lily of the Valley and the Fiddlehead Fern. They grow in the Spring (April/May) timeframe in the Midwest U.S.

[@ColouringwithK]

Thanks Jan and Cheryl, still working on the page and using Faber Castell Polychromos now, love the way they lay down on the paper. It’s taking quite a while as I’m layering away!

[@shamekalh]

I have both of these as well I haven't started them I a little intimidated I want to get a little better.. I like what you said about looking up to other Colorist on KZbin and wanting your work to look like that that's exactly how I feel..like goodness they are so good idk..but I want the book still..lol. I loved this color and chat you did a beautiful job with coloring..so I'm doing a double page in Tales of the forest kingdom..it's the one with the Castle and the three people walking towards it with the cat..its becoming quite the color.

[@ColouringwithK]

I bet your double page is coming along beautifully, I know the one you mean. I’m becoming more and more fussy with my own colouring but most of the time I am happy with what I produce thankfully, so that’s encouraging! Happy colouring x

[@shamekalh]

@@ColouringwithK your work really is amazing and beautiful 😍

[@maryellenthompson8261]

Please don’t allow yourself to be intimidated by the art. I was the same way until I divided each picture into sections and focused on one section at a time. You’ve done some beautiful coloring already. I know you can do it. The beautiful thing about Kanoko Egusa’s art is that it comes to life when you color it. Happy coloring!

[@_Ms.L_]

I'm so glad you did a flip of this book, it was on my wish list, but I didn't know it was the same as the Japanese versions, which I already have. You underestimate your pencil coloring skills...you are one of my favorite colorists (all mediums) and I can't wait to see you color more of this page and in this book. Also, looking forward to seeing you color in Dimensions...if you are up to it!??!!?? I hope the heatwave isn't affecting you, if it is please stay hydrated and do everything you can to stay cool.

[@ColouringwithK]

Thanks so much. I will colour in Dimensions but possibly in September, I’ve got so many other books listed for August and they’re mega detailed. Thanks again for the encouragement ❤️😊

The pictures are stunning. I'm afraid to color in my copy because my coloring skills are quite low. Though I might try to follow your example.

[@ColouringwithK]

You should try and give it a go, I decided to start because I feel disappointed if I just leave it on the shelf. If I don’t like it, I’ll be sad for a bit but I’ll get over it 😊

@@ColouringwithK yeah. That makes sense

Coloring in those books. I’ve almost finished one of them. It’s great fun, look at what others have done, and start! Oil based pencils keep a great point and that helps with the details! K

[@leslieladyhawke]

Hi, K! Ive colored a lot of Teresa Goodridge pages lately & one Daydreams page. Texas is much too hot right now to do anything except eat ice cream & get fat haha. Coloring books and supplies ARE addictive! Ha. My little budget keeps me from going overboard but my mind craves more haha. Just today got some gouache jelly cups and swatched them on camera. Now I need instruction on using them! Ha

[@ColouringwithK]

Hi Leslie, I’ve never used gouche, need to try it out one day! It’s cooled down here now so it’s nice. How is it currently in Texas? 😊❤️

[@leslieladyhawke]

@@ColouringwithK Texas is terribly hot right now. 100°s F everyday. So thankful for aircon! Usually, we have some 100s in August but this is a terribly hot summer with 100s from June, likely, to the end of August, maybe into Sept! Never visit Texas, or the south in general, in July & August. Haha

[@leslieladyhawke]

As far as migraines go, several family members suffer with them. Im sure youve tried some home remedies but dairy, milk specifically, contributes to various maladies. One of which is fibromyalgia which I have. After years of being told to get off cow milk, I finally did it and that and taking many vitamins have helped so much. Anyhow, I will pray you find relief soon! Blessings!

[@ColouringwithK]

Aww thanks lovely Leslie x

[@silvers_ink]

I know this is an older video so you may have already figured out your migraines by now but I get them too and usually there are things that trigger your migraines. One of my triggers are sinus headaches from allergies and sinus issues that I have. If I don't take ibuprofen as soon as I feel a sinus headache starting, it will get worse and worse until it's a full blown migraine. Bright lights and stress, or if I get too hot while sleeping are also triggers for me. Once you figure out the things that are triggering it, you can avoid those things and get less migraines. Hope this helps! Oh and I also have a prescription medication that I can take for migraines. It's called imitrex and I can take it to help me get over a migraine. But it's hard on your heart so I don't take it unless I really need it.

[@ColouringwithK]

I think stress triggers it but it’s hard to manage the stress as it’s something that is just part of life, I guess I can try relaxation and breathing techniques which will probably help too. There will be other things that trigger it too but I need to identify them. Thank you for your helpful comment 😊❤️

[@silvers_ink]

@ColouringwithK You're welcome!😊 Yea, you can avoid some stress, but you can't avoid all stress because things happen in life that creates stress. Sometimes certain foods can trigger your migraines as well. What helped me figure out some of my triggers was to keep a journal and log all of my migraines. I would write down the date and what time it was when the migraine started and when it ended, and I would write about what I had been doing that day, what I ate, and things like that. Eventually after a while of keeping the journal of all my migraines I was able to look back and see patterns. For example, I noticed that a lot of times I would wake up with a migraine and I would be so hot and sweaty, so I figured out that if I get too hot while I'm sleeping it can trigger a migraine. I think that keeping a journal and logging your migraines might be helpful for you too!

[@ColouringwithK]

@ aww thanks so much for your help. I’m going to try to do what you’ve suggested ❤️

[@leslieladyhawke]

I was thinking of getting the Curious Creature book by the same artist. It’s in my Amazon cart but havent taken the leap yet haha

[@colourfulpyrate]

I desired these books for SOOOO long then I finally got them from Amazon Japan. I flip through them, get cold feet, and put them back on the shelf. You are inspiring me to get over it and put some color down! I did start one in Symphony of Cute Animals awhile back but got so intimidated by the idea of doing fur. I'll never learn of I don't start trying though! And anyway, I know you don't HAVE to do a full fur texture bc the line art suggests it already. But it doesn't take much to make my brain shut down the idea to work in them fearing I'll muck it all up 😟

[@karinswartz3046]

Just jump right in and experiment. I. often do the first page like the Name Plate page or the first page of a book that has some text on it. I get my feet wet that way. Also using pastel colour pencils are often very forgiving and an easy way to start your first page. I have really been enjoying the Brutfuner Macaron set of 50 which makes most pages look quite nice and I'm a person who practices a lot but still struggles with line art. Good luck, be brave and enjoy. :)

[@colourfulpyrate]

@@karinswartz3046 aww thanks for the encouragement and advice! I just put my 3 sets of pastel pencils together in one case and one of them is the macarons. I have been wanting to lighten up my coloring lately as I notice they're all really saturated and dark colors even when I try to go lighter. I should try to only use them on a page!

[@karinswartz3046]

@@colourfulpyrate Yes, try a few pages with just your pastel pencils. I would actually just try working with the 50 set of Macarons because you won't believe the results and it narrows things down .Then go back in at the end and figure out where you can add some darker layers of the pastel. Add a tri-colour or solid soft chalk pastel background. i just finished a picture in Maria Trolle's book with the Macarons and a tri-colour background and I'm so pleased and I'm my own worst critic!

[@ColouringwithK]

The pictures are so beautiful that I think almost everyone gets a little nervous before starting a page in those books, but best thing is to not think too hard and just make a start. After you’ve started, it gets easier. Practice makes perfect as they say! Best of luck, you’ll do great! ❤️😊

[@triinutriinu]

May I ask how often do you order coloring books for your home in the online store.

[@ColouringwithK]

Possibly about 6 or 7 a month but it varies

[@vivalamew]

It's been so hot in the Netherlands, It went on to be 39°C which is a new heat record for us I believe. The worst part is that our houses are built to keep heat in, and AC is expensive here. Such fun! 🥵 I did get some coloring done though, I got the 120 Albrecht Durer set for my birthday I'm so proud of them 😁 I also got the english version of this book, will you be watercoloring in it? I'm not sure the paper will hold? Sorry for the ramble. Thanks for the video!

[@ColouringwithK]

It’s similar in the UK, the houses are built to keep heat in and there’s no AC. But we had a few days of very hot weather and then it cooled down thankfully! The Albrecht Durer are lovely pencils, have fun and enjoy them! 😊

[@kymdalton7277]

It's weird to think that you get intimidated like that because your colouring and especially how you seem to know where to put embellishments and sparkly goodness is just so beautiful to me.... but yeah when you see other people's pages and think I wish I could do that it is really intimidating, then my daughter looks at one of my coloured pics and says I wish I could do that so it puts it back into perspective for me ....that I CAN do that 😁 we are our own harshest critics it seems when everyone else is thinking oh how beautiful lol

[@ColouringwithK]

You are completely right. Thing is we all have the capacity to produce great coloured pages but I think we will always be more critical of our own work. There’s a pattern with me, while I’m colouring a page, I often get discouraged because I think it’s not good enough or should’ve looked better but I make myself carry on, and usually I end up really liking it. Even though I know it’s not perfect, if I like it, I’m happy! ❤️😊

Dimensions 3D by Francois Gautier on Amazon

[@jeaniethompson5623]

Hi K, I just got this book recently, and totally ruined the double page spread that’s reminiscent of little red riding hood. ☹️ Now I’m hesitant to try a new pic. I find the paper in this book very unforgiving, when it comes to erasing mistakes, or trying to cover up mistake, unfortunately. ☹️ xo

[@karinswartz3046]

Hi Jeanie, care to explain how you think you messed up? Don't get too discouraged. What I do in those instances is, I go back to the page and examine what went wrong. A great way to learn and experiment is to try to salvage the page. Use the page as a practice and experimental piece. You have nothing to lose because in your mind the page is already messed up. Just throw everything at it to try to salvage it. A background, deeper colour, erasing as well as you can in an area and adding a different colour, highlighting areas with a white, cream or lighter pencil, outlining, using a marker, using stickles,, adding a chalk pastel background. Messing up a page is really part of the process and that is why there are so many more pages in a book, lol. Once you do that, then close the book and put it on a shelf. Keep practicing with other books and things with lower stakes and then in a few months, pull out the book and colour a small area only. Sit back and see how you feel. Have you improved? Do a bit more or close the book. You will see that you will be more ready to tackle the book within time and the more you practice. That's what I have been doing. Hope that helps and encourages you to revisit the page and see what you can do with it.

[@jeaniethompson5623]

@@karinswartz3046 Thanks for all your great ideas and encouragement, K. Wish I’d had your advice before I ripped the page out of my book.
