Is This the Most Intricate Adult Coloring Book EVER? (Kerby Rosanes)

[@SarahRenaeClark]

Ready for another page from this beautiful book? kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZy6qXWsjdSAl8k

[@carolbatchelor5855]

Absolutely! I just bought this book today, and I'm sort of overwhelmed with these pages! I don't know where to start. This is also my first Kerby Rosanes book, and I'm excited to get started somewhere. Now back to your video. Thanks, Sara!

[@rachelo1045]

Hi! You really inspire me to color and be less intimidated to color detailed pictures! Loved the finished piece!

[@indardookieram7739]

i really don't care about adult orr kids colouring book it's still a colouring book for everyone.

[@darlenewallace8469]

Like the color book

[@darlenewallace8469]

Like the color book

[@MeaKitty]

Aaaah, this is the same sort of lovely reaction I want from people who get my adult coloring pages. I love drawing details, and it's for this exact reason - you find something new in the design each time. I can only hope that someone out there has the same fun afternoon coloring what I draw in the same way.

[@gilashroot8697]

Please send Sara a page from your book to colour in. I would love to see what she does with it.

[@jakiabir3028]

It's so beautiful

[@Carrie_13]

GORGEOUS!!! I can't get over how much the colour pops with the use of the alcohol pen!! I never thought of using paint pens on a page with pencils but I will need to order them now!

[@Roxylevac75]

What are substitutes for the alcohol marker?

[@susandubber8536]

Thank you, Sarah, for not using the word 'cute' every time you flip a page! Your wonderfully joy-filled commentary imparts great enthusiasm.

[@dorkigoddess5228]

This is beautiful! I've been using a colorless blender alcohol marker on all color pencils and it's freaking amazing! I use it with my regular Prismacolor and even Crayola pencils. I definitely recommend trying it on any of your pencils, not just the Inktense!

[@LaurieAnnCurry]

I’m going to have to try this, thanks

[@ChrisAndCats]

I have terrible trouble with prismas to the point I hate using them (much prefer my inktense or albrecht durer) so I'll give it a go!

[@Dan-sb5sf]

Gamsol

[@iamatoaster2693]

You can also use acetone or paint thinner. Hell, I use cheep nail polish remover.

[@sarahlewis7669]

So can you use alcohol blenders on watercolour pencils?……..is that right?

[@elsagillespie5210]

Like most people have said already gorgeous! I'm watching this during a thunderstorm in Sydney Australia. When you do the other page with the fish on it, us pastel or light colors on it to contrast the page that you've already done in this video. Also I'm going to give this a try with my Derwent Artists' pencils & see what the out come of them are, as i've got a Frozen adults coloring book (which I got from Big W).

[@bettablue2660]

I really appreciate that’s you are coloring adult coloring books. As your older videos have been helpful, I’ve been waiting for you just to color. I would love a #short as an instruction of what’s coming, including what pencils, markers, etc you’ll be using.

[@tazrortheelder5307]

I love Kerby's books, and have most of them already (including Worlds Within Worlds). You've given me some ideas to try on my next page!

[@jewelasalvador]

I have almost all of Kerby Rosanes' books and have been coloring on them for years. I just finished a page from Geomorphia. This week maybe I'll try to do this page. Love this video! Thanks for the inspiration, Sarah! More power!♥️

[@malenyluna5275]

I have it and the pictures are tripping in a good way, so detailed and just mindblowing. I typically don't finish a pic in one sitting but I have so much fun mixing colors and everytime I look at the drawings I get new ideas on what colors to add.

[@melpot4296]

Ive had this one for a YEAR and EVERY TIME i flip through, i notice a page that i had never seen before.🤣 ive barely even started on 2 of them and never finished because i dont want to mess them up somehow🤣 i keep watching tutorials and practicing on other books so i can do my best on the worlds within worlds. Thank you for this!!!

[@kiwess1]

OMG! I love this! I am most definitely going to activate my water color pencils with a colorless alcohol marker. I never thought of that. Thanks, Sarah.

[@Rayedrgn02]

Another awesome video Sarah! I love how you are not afraid to share in your "mistakes" or "OOPSIES". I see what you were talking about with the black in the background not mixing that well with the blue but other then that the fish, the fins and everything else turned out really good and vibrant! I think that it is awesome that you found yourself in a bit of a "art trance" during the white dot method as that's a place we should all strive to get to with each art session. I also think that the addition of so many white dots gives the mixture a pretty luminosity. ❣❣❣ Edit: Oh! and I forgot! Yes! Please do more videos about Watercolor Pencils!

[@jenniferjohnson7277]

Love that you are starting to put focus on more adult coloring books! I absolutely love Kirby's books ( I have every coloring book he has released!) and hope you try out some other artists who specialize in adult coloring books. Would love to see what mediums and your techniques for them!

[@The_Lost_Jams]

I love how you always take a challenge so positively. And have a positive outlook on everything. It's very entertaining to watch you try new things and do fun stuff. It's actually very inspiring

[@Loonit23]

Well, this turned out a lot more intricate than I thought, but also stunning. The idea to activate the colors with the marker was genius! And the end result of it all is super gorgeous. Wow. Loved it!

[@SarahRenaeClark]

Who are some of your other favorite adult coloring book artists you’d like to see me try?

[@Peppmintleaf]

I'd love to see you try coloring a page in the coloring book "romantic Country" by Japanese artist Eriy :3

[@carriannescreations]

Hanna Karlzon. Eriy. Maria Trolle. Johanna Basford.

[@emerana]

anything Studio Ghilbi. My Neighbour Totoro is one of the most uplifting movies but all the Ghibli artwork is lovely

[@SarahRenaeClark]

@@carriannescreations I’ve just bought one of Hannah Karlzon’s books, and another Johanna Basford ❤️

[@beautybyjessy9535]

Lizzie Mary Cullen! I think you’d do a great job with her work 🥰

[@moderate9984]

Love your enthusiasm and tips for colouring, I’ve bought colouring books when they first came out many years back, but now got back into colouring and am hooked. Thanks for your videos.

[@christianarias7078]

I am truly starting to love the beautiful picture of a goldfish. You are a smart artist.

[@phillipannastasiadas9691]

For the life of me, I never thought to use an alcohol marker colorless blenders with inktense pencils before… It actually blew my mind. I tried it with some swatches and wow it really works. Thank you for the video Sarah.

[@MelmelSNL]

Honestly I really love the unintentionally space-y vibe going on. It looks really mystical and magical

[@alabamasisters6184]

I love Kerby Rosanes , I actually have almost all of Kerby 's Coloring books . Your page is really beautiful. I never thought of using the alcohol blender pen.

[@SwedePotato314]

Wow. For context I'm a watercolor and ink artist. I love using alcohol markers for my art work but never for coloring books. Then I find out they blend colored pencils. Now they blend inktense pencils. And I've had a 4 pack of arteza blenders just sitting for ages. This channel is FULL of amazing tips. This one is life changing. And the blender pen gives much more control than waterbrush. OMG and I JUST had the Chromaflow 24 pack delivered today. This video was made for me.

[@UTBBT]

Once again, I'm so happy to have found this channel! I have been a coloring fool these last few weeks and learned so much from you. This is beautiful. I don't typically go for these types of coloring pages, they overwhelm me but you make me want to give it a try. Thanks for sharing your gifts with the world.

[@brookeburgess190]

Loved the results of the watercolor pencils and the alcohol blender. This is a must try on my list. I would loved more watercolor pencil tutorials. I’ve just started dipping my toe in and love them!!! Keep up the incredible work!!!!

[@alabamasisters6184]

I absolutely love Kerby Rosanes books, I have all of them and am waiting for his new book that should be available in December. Your Coloring is beautiful and inspiring, so glad I haven't colored this particular page yet, you have given me so many ideas. Thank you.

The “could have stoped” but didn’t is me every time 😂 those white pens are just life 🤩

[@54Lily]

thank you for sharing your talents and unbridled enthusiasm. I'm new to Kerby Rosanes coloring books as well. I'm finding them quite addictive. Watching you choose your colors is an 'art-form' in itself. I love that you get carried away with the embellishing with the paint pens. It's what draws us into the little details. Would love to see you do the 'crowns' I know you'd come up with some beautiful metals and golds, and then there's those 'gems"..... Your lighthearted approach, backed with talent and artistry 'know how" make you a joy to watch. Thank you.

[@robinmickael6197]

I'm really glad you decided to do one of these coloring pages as they're the only coloring books I own and the advice on the shading is definitely something I'll use! I may even look into some paint pens of my own for highlights ;) happy to see a new video posted and I hope you and your family are doing the best you can.

[@BeautifulColorsYoutube]

Yesss finally! I’m coloring a Kirby fish page now! I can’t believe you are finally doing a Kirby page!!! Can’t wait to see what other “adult” books you color in next

[@Pinkpanda36]

It's your artwork! There's no time limit if your having a fun time! 🥰 this is a gorgeous piece. This may be my next coloring book purchase. Thanks Sarah!

[@MonkeyNinja99]

I love the vibrant and bold color tones here, especially with all that detail.

[@lynnea286]

Wow!! I've never seen anyone colour like this before. Very inspiring!!! And the results are very frame-able. 💖🙏

[@reneekingsley9967]

Love how honest and raw you are! Thank you for making me feel like mistakes are okay💙

[@nywf1824]

You made It feel so effortless to colour for such a detailed drawing. This is very inspiring especially when my copy from Books Depo is arriving in the next few days. I literally also ran out the door and bought a copic alcohol blender to try on my 30yr old caran d’ache supracolor that I never knew how to enjoy or appreciate till now. Thank you! Been watching your videos since December and they have inspired me to do art again since school days, hope there will be more tutorials and sped up colour along videos like this one to learn from you. I watched another video recently explaining the strategy behind colouring detailed pages that look overwhelming like where to start, how to visualise which colour goes where on the waves etc. and would love to hear how you do yours.

[@colinsmith6116]

It may be just a paint book, but it is not JUST a paint book. Your colouring in is fantastic Sarah, you certainly made a damned good job of the ones you have shown in this video. Very artistic.

[@RMD]

This turned out really good!! It looks so overwhelming with all of the small details. Also I think that the black you chose worked out perfect as it adds a nice depth and contrast from the main subject! 🙌🏼💜✌🏼

[@SarahRenaeClark]

Thank you!

[@mart6612]

Yes, I agree, the black was just a perfect choice!! Simply beautiful outcone with the depth of the undersea!!

[@ReynaThePalisman]

@@SarahRenaeClark my alcohol marker blender bleeds through my Kirby paper do you have any advice I use prismas?

[@haynenps3466]

Wow that looks great, loved how the alcohol colourless blender activated all the colours. Kerby’s pages are so full of detail, and seem so intimidating.

[@SarahRenaeClark]

I definitely felt the same (being intimidated) until I gave it a go! I enjoyed it a lot more than I expected!

[@ilzevanrensburg3239]

I think I have watched ALL you videos about 3 or 4 times...always learn so much, makes me happy and inspire me very much!!! You are one special person. Would like to see more videos though... 🥰 You are extremely talented 😇

[@carolbatchelor5855]

Wow! This turned out so nice! (Of course it did because YOU are the artist!)The paint pens made it look so 3D. Great idea, Sarah! I don't have this book yet, but I think I might like it. Watercolors really are so beautiful. I'm sure anything you use would be beautiful! I enjoyed watching all of the fun you were having!!

[@mistyduke880]

Looks beautiful! Love the color choices and how you blended in the surfers and other details.

[@zumaone3692]

I really enjoyed this video and the colors! I will have to try that technique, thank you. I have a couple of his books and after watching this I think it will be much easier to color them, thank you for the shading tips.

[@cherrie34446]

Wow - I am definitely a littl intimidated by Kerby Rosanes Art. You have given me a little bit more courage -thanks

[@CatMomAmanda]

I actually really like the effects you made with the paint pens! The dots really really made a huge difference, and made the picture so much more interesting to me!

[@wendyellis6008]

I loved the finished result. Love Kerby books especially World within Worlds, in fact l am currently colouring the boot page. Still struggling picking colours before I start a picture though

[@dragonsjewel7374]

This turned out fantastic and those inktense pencils look like so much fun to work with. Another item to add to my wishlist...lol

[@angelafahlenkamp9311]

Your channel just popped up in my feed and I'm so happy, I was coloring LONG before there was adult coloring books, all I has to choose from was Disney and children's books, I would go on some hunts let me tell you.....when good books started coming out I was ecstatic and haven't looked back, im getting me some Kerby books as I have a ton of these kinds of books but I don't think I have these yet as well as every single kind of pen and ink I can find and my collection is quite extensive after 20 years, looking forward to seeing what is new out there ❤😊

[@AnnieNelson-wo6bm]

Yes please do try. I love this. I miss having you all to color with and appreciate the product reviews. Thank you very much.

[@sammiemarie14]

The other fish page use same colors but switch the lights too the tale and the darks too the fish!! With same background i love this!! Would love too see that ying yang contrast in color form!

Beautiful! ❤️ I love the Kerby books as well, Colormorphia was my first coloring book purchase. I very much appreciate your videos, always informative, helpful and fun!

[@alauraroarialis8815]

Wow, gorgeous! This ranks up there in the top tier of awesome finished pages by this artist. Nice job!

[@viverefren]

I own three of Kerby's books (Fantomorphia, Worlds Within Worlds and Mythic World) and I love all of them! They are so detailed and interesting. He's definetly my favorite illustrator and in my opinion his coloring books are the best.

[@davideite535]

I have exactly the same book. Bought this last week absolutley loving how detailed this one is and the themes. It is very challenging

[@sadie9691]

So beautiful! Love your coloring videos and would love to see some watercolor ones! It’s a medium I would love to get into and you always do such thorough tutorials and fun pages I think it would take some intimidation away!

[@vidhoard]

This is brilliant! I never color my drawings I care about because I'm so scared of ruin it and I'm not good at coloring in (using ANY method haha). But now I've decided I should just get a coloring book like this one (these illustrations are GORGEOUS) and practice it on there. It'll end up with a pretty result and won't feel like a waste of materials either because it will be such an amazing base illustration! Also the alcohol marker activation of the watercolor pencils is brilliant. And that's not to mention your AMAZING job coloring this!!! It's absolute perfection, I don't think anyone could have done it better. So beautiful!!!

[@SarahRenaeClark]

Thank you! And definitely grab a good book to “practice”. I think we often worry about “wasting” the good books, and so we put them away forever! But that’s no fun! Get them out and use them! You can always buy more if you finish them, and they’ll be well loved and show an amazing creative journey

[@KittyKat94]

OMG...I actually have an entire of that art book! I was not expecting to see a video about it. This is awesome.

[@kermitken1]

I love Kerby Rosanes!!!! His illustrations are amazing I always buy 2 books, one to keep as is and another to color

[@PursuingHeaven]

Thanks, Sarah for doing this, it has given me the inspiration to pick up my 72 set of Inktense again and I have an entire box of alcohol blenders I packed away because I decided I didn't like markers ruining my books. I have an idea, since you wanted to do more watercolors, how about starting with Neocolour 2's? They are water-soluble and very popular in our community and I would love to see more coloring tutorials on how to do backgrounds and larger elements with them.

[@flis625]

This is gorgeous! I have a book with some sort of greyscale pages that I just ignored as I couldn’t see how to do them but your technique would work for them too - will give it a go. Thanks for all the hard work you and Shane do to help us all. Love to see more of these and other adult colouring book pages.❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

[@sorry-I-write-long-comments]

Would love to see you collaring more in this book!! I love his style! I already have one that's called "mythomorphia" and haven't coloured in it yet, since I stopped colouring a while ago (because of tendonitis), but seeing this and how good it looked without having to color too much and too hard, makes me wanting to start again😁 so THANK YOU❤ Hugs from Norway BTW I'm so happy you collaborated with ADC Art attack, that's how I found you🤩

[@ArtsyMario]

This is beautiful! It is still intimidating for me the book but still cool. I loved how you colored the page. Very nice!

[@CherokeeGal123]

If don't know already, I highly recommend Prismacolors. They are the best in my opinion. It would be nice if these books also came in a digital format so digital artists can have a go at these. Not everyone has a functioning scanner.

[@saibamanikandan6756]

Really nice varieties of colours used! Gorgeous!!

[@B1rdLadee]

Wow! 😃 This is amazing! I’ve had Fragile Worlds in my Amazon cart for months, but been so intimidated by the illustrations. But I think I could actually do this…. Thank you for sharing. 💝 This also gives me some ideas for coloring some fish I’ve been staring at in another book. For some reason, everytime I see fish all I see is orange, and I struggle with shades and hues. This gives me some different inspiration. 😁👍🏼

[@TheTwins337]

I just tried a colorless blender on my prismacolor on a kerby page I had started and it works! Now I just need to try it on my polychromos and luminance pencils! I never thought of doing that before! Mind is completely blown!! 🤯

[@Solgre]

Does it bleed through after colorless blender? I'm worry that coloring picture on the back side would be ruined.

[@SharkBerri]

I was always into very cartoony styles, but I have to say, yoube outdone yourself with this piece! Bravo!

[@LAWandCoach]

Breathtaking as always...lots of practicing still for me. But you have such fun and useful videos. Thank you for your time and sharing your beautiful coloring. Someday....... Lots of smiles. L.A.W.

[@mercyspain]

I love these coloring books! I have 2 already and am waiting to see the alien one. There is not a lot of guessing for when shading is needed so while they look overwhelming they are the most relaxing coloring books I own. And they come out beautifully every time because the pictures are so beautiful already.

[@Jago8407]

Wow lovely 🤩😍 I would love to see more coloring in this colorbook! Thank you for the alcoholmaker tip! The white ballpoint pen, made it extra beautiful!

[@vivvv2630]

This is so exciting! LOVE that your diving into the ‘adult’ coloring books! I’m totally thrilled for this and have SO many others I would love to recommend (and you likely already know them)… Eriy’s Romantic Country series… Kanoko Egusa’s Rhapsody in the Forest, Menuet de Bonheur, or Symphony of Cute Animals… Rita Berman’s Meine Reise durch Europa or other books… Aeppol’s Forest Girl series… and on and on I could go. Would love to see your beautiful style in any of those books! Have not yet gotten the nerve up to try a Kerby book myself, 😳😂. Bravo!

[@Kreative_Rainbow]

Incredible results!! 👍 That page is such a unique creation! The use of the pencils and alcohol really made vibrant colors!!🌈

[@MelanaC]

Oh my goodness! Thank you thank you thank you for highlighting this artist! I watched this video and I was incredibly inspired by your enthusiasm and I just purchased one of his colouring books from Amazon and I’m soooo excited for it to arrive! I live in Aberdeen Scotland so I’m obviously a huge Johanna Basford fan and I have all her books (if anyone is confused Johanna lives here) I can’t allow myself to actually colour in the books tho 🫣 I scan and print off a page when I want to colour them in! That way I can change my mind or reinterpret the image with a different colour palette! You have such a delightful presence and that makes me so excited to get colouring 🥰🎨💜🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

These have been around a long time, I remember them from 40+ years ago, great fun to color in these scenes a little at a time while watching tv over a few months.

[@thoughtfulwatcher]

Wow! I doubt I would have made the fish such a bold color. I'd have gone pale blue or something and it wouldn't have come out anywhere NEAR as well as this! I really learned something. I need to be more gutsy and use contrasting colors more often to get beautiful results like this. Wonderful job, as always - plus educational. Thank you!

[@Taracinablue]

Neat! Amazing that you managed to color that page with so few colors.

[@GwyllionFaye]

Absolutely stunning! I found a small box of Derwent Ink tense pencils buried in a drawer that I must have purchased for card making once upon a time. It was great to watch your process and to get some tips. I am really learning such a great deal from your videos and blog. I love your color catalogs as it has helped me to get over my Fear of colors. I have finally learned there really are no mistakes in art! Thanx a bunch 💜

[@lampekartoffel]

So stunning! The ocean/tail fin was especially breathtaking! Such gorgeous colours and the way they were mixed as well as the paint pens really made for some beautiful and lively water! This colouring book have the type of drawings where I'd probably need a printer in order to ever colour a single page as I'd be convinced/scared I'd ruin the beautiful pictures with my crude skills (I've only recently picked up colouring again and only after watching your channel for a few months!)

[@SarahRenaeClark]

Don't be scared to ruin your pages. See every new page as an opportunity to grow your creativity, not a challenge for perfection. I think that's the biggest thing I've tried to learn over the past year, and it's been the biggest lesson in enjoying coloring more. And as a result, my skills have improved much faster because I'm actually using my books instead of leaving them on the shelf! So get your books out and USE THEM!

[@lampekartoffel]

@@SarahRenaeClark Awww, thank you! That is actually a really nice way to look at it. I will try to change my mentality while colouring, so that I look more at the improvement of skill than the fact I don't yet have the skills to make the exact outcome I pictured in my head before I began.
