I Tried A REVERSE Coloring Book?? *It SOLD OUT??*

The first 100 people to use my promo code CHLOEROSE40 will get 40% off their first order of Hungryroot at bit.ly/3IIPauN
Today I tried out a reverse coloring book! I've never seen anything like this before but I was shocked at how fun it was! You basically draw the lines yourself, it's very creative and a unique spin on traditional coloring books and pages. This reverse coloring book totally sold out last I checked but it is still available to buy for a later ship date! This is one of amazons best selling books ever (in the top 600 books right now) and is so unique.

I found out that lefty coloring books have the print on the left side page instead of the right. As a fellow lefty, I might try that out! I like adult coloring books (I tend to use watercolor brush markers and put a blotting page behind the work just in case), and I find myself turning them upside down with the 'righty' books.

That’s sounds wonderful! I recommend the Hirameki - draw what you see book. Very therapeutic and fun.

[@hawksliravenwood460]

I don't know if you've heard about this, but I would recommend looking up stuff on neurographic art. There's quite a few videos on it, and it's a type of art therapy that could be helpful and fun. Hope you have a lovely day.

It's so cool to see how different your first page turned out from mine! I love the variation of line thickness as well as how flowy you are with the pen strokes. I saw an iguana with its nose pointing up in place of where your adorable goldfish was drawn. The Simpson's character haha I'm glad you tried this!!

There are artists who are afraid to outline (ink) their art and there are artists who are afraid to color their art. I'm both lol so this is pretty awesome. You could have this book and a regular coloring book to practice getting comfortable with lining and comfortable with use of color. Very cool product and I LOVE seeing you use different things and get out of your comfort zone! I also LOVE when you're in your comfort zone because you make really amazing pieces of art. 😁

[@emccormack4209]

I think this concept could become the basis of a really fun art collaboration with friends. Get someone to paint or color a page, then swap and add lines to complete the work.

[@MandyRosko]

This book seems to be like those ink blobs therapists make you look at. Everyone sees something different. Only with all the color you end up drawing what you see so it can be fascinating that everyone can come up with different things :)

[@kelseywillow8110]

Rorschach ;) but it reminds me of Hirameki (Peng & Hu) book

[@anwylhsm954]

That's exactly what I thought as well. I need to find one of these, this is a cool idea.

[@Lilian040210]

Not abstract enough for me. Half of the book looks so obviously like flowers. I'd like a more Rorscharch-y one with maybe greys and blacks so u can actually draw whatever and not end up with blue horse or smth.

[@its_ah_duck]

I feel like this would be a good activity for someone who has art block. Like there is no stress to make something perfect. You just get to interpret shapes and make some fun outlines

[@sarahvanorden670]

You should definitely finish this book and make it a series - The first page gave me Wonderland vibes, kind of like the flowers in the Golden Afternoon scene with the Lion as the Dandelion. So pretty!

[@avanguline]

I really like this. My non-artistic self would definitely stress over it but I'm still tempted.... I love that you can easily tear them out as well. Means you technically can scan the pages too if you wanted to print out more of the same design, either for a group activity, or to practice on, or even do different things with the same design!. I may have to check this out once it's available again...

[@bryantaylor2523]

For the goldfish page I instantly saw 2 different scenes simultaneously, one of them was basically what you ended up drawing. The other scene was a cluster of volcanoes erupting where the blue was the sky, red/orange/yellow was lava, brown was the volcano/mountain, green was a jungle in the foreground, and pink was either fires or buildings (hadn't figured out pink entirely yet after only seeing it for like 3 seconds).

[@sleepysamcomments]

[@ceilinh6004]

I used to do this kind of thing a fair bit a few years ago. I used watercolour paper, a spray bottle of water, and pigment powders to make random colour fields. I would do a bunch all at once, and then gradually work through them. TBH, I turned a lot of them into faces. LOL

[@gabeangel8104]

I got this book and I love it myself but I'm also doing a few pages with my 3 year old granddaughter to help nurture her imagenation. It's similar to spotting what clouds look like but as I'm house bound with a disability it's an easier activity to be able to do indoors

[@DestinyR7]

For my final year in college I had several works of art where I basically took rubbings of concrete and traced around the dark spots on the paper with black ink. They looked like black and white maps. Super fun!

[@recoveringsoul755]

I've gone through old cemeteries and done tombstone rubbings. We used crayon instead of charcoal though because it's less messy

[@harleyjones5341]

Goldfish is instantly what I saw. Your first fish turned out so cute! You definitely have to turn it into a new character to draw! I also saw an upside down jellyfish so you have to make it that!

[@KansasNotTheBand]

i love this concept! i was super artsy as a kid, but sadly much of my creativity was sort of trained out of me in school. but i had undiagnosed adhd until last year, so even though i couldn't decide what colors looked most "realistic" on a coloring page anymore, i always continued to doodle on the images on class worksheets (think funny hats and beards on historical figures) or make the titles more visually exciting in the church bulletin when i was bored during the sermon. and i did all of that with just a pen or pencil! this sounds like the perfect thing for me, i think i will love it (if i manage to get one lol)!

[@maoui5304]

Hi Chloe ! Loves the video and honestly loved this concept for a book, it seems way more appealing than a regular coloring book to me at least ! Just wanted to point out that from 8:55 to 11:03 there is no voiceover, just music or silence, and I'm not sure it was intentional giving the editing during that part, it looked like your voice was initially there but got deleted somehow ? Just thought I would let you know ! Great work anyway, can't wait for the next one !

Love your channel Chloe, I realised that I missed this video when you posted it. So now I am binge watching the two videos I missed! Yay! Seriously tho Chloe, I missed seeing your video a few days ago when it came out. Don't know how that happened? I might get myself a book like that. It looks more interesting than simple colouring in books which I find really boring. I love both the pictures you did. They came out really well. God bless you and all those you love Chloe.

[@craftycrandall]

Love that this concept can be adapted to anything! It's almost an expansion of the art prompt of drawing blobs and creating characters out of them, but in this case starting from a more colorful composition. There was clearly an intent with some of the pieces, and not with others, really lending to the creativity of the line artist. Very cool. :)

What an interesting idea…I always appreciate the lining that some artists do when they use pen over watercolor…Natasha Newton does this with her landscapes and birds. I always think “How does she choose those lines and patterns?” This could be a good exercise to train the artist eye…

This is very intriguing. I am a person whose talents are mainly musical. I’ve always wanted to be better in art but from an early age though all my attempts were so bad that I just started saying as a teen- I can’t draw a circle- and gave up. Fast forward nearly 50 years and I had a very vague but determined 2023 resolution-explore and use your creativity. I have started with watercolors and am trying to just enjoy the process, not to be judgy. This looks like a really different approach- I would really like to see you do more in this Reverse coloring book. Thank you for sharing!

I don't know about this. I love the pages as they come, and think it's cool that you can see coral and fishes in what is really just blobs of color. Having to put line work in might cause my heart to explode. I'm one of those people who struggles with art because I'm a perfectionist and I always try to be too literal. I think you did a great job. Maybe I should get one of these and practice letting go of control.

[@ChloeRoseArt]

That’s so lovely!! Thank you so much for your kind words and support!

[@laureendavis2369]

I've actually done something really similar to this. You gather up a few objects.. more for their shape than what they are. You color out areas of the items with colored pencils, markers, don't think it would work as well with water based paints/markers. Then you get some gesso and water it down so it's just an opaque wash, you can tint it a bit with acrylic ink, to maybe antique it, etc. Brush the gesso over the colors you drew out. Once it's dry and you get this cool muted, hazy colors. Then you take a fine liner pen and just start filling in shapes and designs, sticking with the lines of the original items or just going random

[@BeeClarissa]

The second page looked like flowers in front of a tomb stone 😅 I was definitely a sceptic about this but it actually looks really fun... I rarely do art but I might have to buy it anyway 😂 I'd love to see a part 2 and 3 and 4 where you do more - particularly the more abstract ones! Your goldfish looked really good ☺️

[@studioyokai]

I have this book! The more abstract pink and orange one you showed at 1:40 I personally did as lines of like, goldfish, amd the first page I sort of made it into a big cat hiding in the flowers and weeds (that teal triangle blotch pointing down made me think of cat noses) but like, kinda made of the flowers and weeds too, kinda like a kelpie except feline. It was fun!

[@birdgirl2623]

I saw this book on Amazon quite some time ago, and even put it on my wish list. But I realized that it probably would just overwhelm me since I tend to get very anxious about drawing anything (I used to do draw quite well once upon a time). However, I knew that I would be be very anxious about what I should draw, and worrying if I can even draw what I imagine is on the page (I saw chicks instead of fish--LOL). That is one of the reasons conventional coloring books appeal to me. I'm all about color! Even when I did my own drawings and painting, I tended to just start by putting down different colors or tones onto a barely sketched (or scribbled outline) unless I had to do it a specific way for art class or something. People are different in how they best express themselves and what types of craft or art activity appeal to them, as well as what just makes them anxious. Even with coloring books, there are many different ones out there. They vary in the type of images are in the books, and even in the quality of paper the book is printed on (I have a few that actually are printed on watercolor stock). Some pictures are highly detailed with all sorts of designs within the main images ( I can't--I'll just color right over them). There are very simple drawing that look like they might be better suited for young children, but the simpler the image, the more the "colorist" can add to it. Some very talented artists who also like to color will actually add a lot of details that go beyond just coloring something in. I've seen people do an entire background, add characters, etc. Some adult coloring books, such as some by Johanna Basford, actually will encourage people to draw things in. Other colorists are content to fill in the blanks with whatever colors or media that appeals to them. I started to color to relax, and then as my health declined, this activity was often a welcome distraction to any pain. I do agree that for many, many people, conventional coloring books are not for them, and are unfortunate sources of anxiety and downright fear. So many people had unfortunate childhoods where well-meaning adults (?) screamed at them for "going out of the lines" or using the "wrong color"!! So I can understand the appeal of being able to do your own darn lines! If people could forget these spoilers of fun, then they might be able to relax and understand that it's actually "okay" to use "wrong colors" or even go DELIBERATELY out of the lines. The Coloring Police will not show up at your door to drag you away!😄 Recently, I've been trying to do more "start from scratch" artwork with varying success, so I might give that Reverse Coloring Book a try. I also would like to try your suggestion of of attempting to put down a bunch of color on the page and then draw over it. I would love to see a video on that idea for some tips!

This stresses me out so much😂😂 I’m a watercolour artist and I try stuff like this and I’m so bad at it. I’ve been wanting to do something like this with watercolours and then make the outlines out of embroidery since that’s another hobby but I’m such an over thinker about things like this. I’m the reverse (haha) and think this limits freedom (for me personally) but I’m the kind of person who watches people turn ink splatters into phenomenal art and think it’s witchcraft.

THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS! Like you, I sometimes struggle with creative block and I have tried all kinds of ways to deal with it. I am definitely going to try this. It seems like a serious block breaker, as well as a nice warm-up to day of creating. Can’t wait to order one.

THE SNORKS... instant nostalgia. It's 3am in the UK ATM and I'm currently searching for snorks to watch xx

I love the Chubby princess facing the teddy bear giving it a smooch. She's got long curly hair and a bubble seaweed crown. :-)

I just received the book number 2 and I love it. It is less abstract. Such as animals, teapots, birds. Super cute

[@noradennis4361]

I love how your pages came out. I liked the goldfish one the best. It intriged me so much I bought a similar one. I can't draw with my right hand at the moment (I had a stroke, so my arm and hand are useless) and I really can't draw with my left hand so I thought it would be great stroke therapy. Practicing drawing with my left hand. I've been drawing since I was five and I miss creating images from my imagination. Besides it looks fun and relaxing.

It's so funny because for the one you drew fish on I saw a bunch of octopuses in coral. Both sea creatures. This is a really great idea and I can see how maybe it could help someone with artist block too. You just get to be creative.

This is just like I do with my watercolor doodles. I get watercolor paper and lay down color in general floral shapes then I use my pens to create the outlines later. My goal was to get familiar with watercolor while improving my line work and drawing skills. One of my favorite therapeutic activities.

Thank you Chloe that looks so much fun and I've already ordered one for my self to take to our Art club and show everyone ❤🧡💛💚💙💜

I added this to my Amazon cart for Christmas!!!! 😂 what a fun creative idea. It really reminds me how when I took viola classes my teacher would make me play the music backwards to really focus on the notes, then when I played the music the normal way, I had tricked my brain and played better. Anyway…I just love your videos. Your personality is so fun and makes smile. 😊

It makes me fall asleep just by watching it

[@padfootblack8065]

This is so exciting!!! This is my friends coloring book! I have a signed copy of it and it's so fun!

[@nikiiannarone7149]

I love this idea! My favorite thing with watercolor is to make random art and then go back and use a liner to turn it into whatever I see... this reminds me of that! ❤❤

I've seen this a lot on twitter recently and honestly, I think it's the first of its kind! Love how you did yours and would love to see you do more pages!!

[@Mizumii25]

So Ima be honest, the page you asked us about, i had the same thought. Some Goldfish or Koi in a small pond but with an underwater view. It's so cool ^-^ What would be cool is taking a bunch of fan submissions of pictures they did for this book in their ways and ideas to draw on it and make a collage video on it or something. It'd be so cool to see everyone's different ideas for the same thing since there's no real limit to this since we're making the lines.

[@kirstenlamiette7147]

This inspired me to get my watercolors out again and do this for myself. And I added your fav pen to my Amazon cart!

[@ashlyns_music_edits]

i thought of doing something like this at 3 in the morning, when the best ideas come.

[@3015tyler]

it's been too long since I've been artistic I've been crocheting more but this makes me really want to draw again it's already added to my amazon cart thanks chloe 😊

[@gilashroot8697]

I would love to see you complete this!!! It gets challenging. Got to be 1 of the best series you do.

[@aimlenacia20]

I do what I call blob art. When I hit creative road block. Just take some markers and draw some blobs all over the page and make things out of the random shapes. Just let them be as they are. It really helps to break from being a perfectionist by creating something loose and carefree. Love it. Wish I could attach a pic. And I'm absolutely getting one of these coloring books because my favorite part of the art process is the line work. Love it. Also it's not weird at all to have a favorite liner. I absolutely do. Zebra btw for any new artists out there is a really good cheap art brand. Highly recommend their markers and fine liners.

I so expected this to be a book for people who love using erasers. Those soft white erasers are so much more satisfying than the hard pink ones.

[@babbles4139]

This is so cool, I love outlining roughly shaped flowers etc.that I colour/paint so I really want to try this colouring book!
