The more colors  the better, as far as I am concerned!

WOW!   I love the vibrant colors in this one.  What did you use to color it.   I don't have anything that gives such vibrant colors and I'm jealous!

This is so pretty!

You are also really making it hard for me not to buy that book!

Edit to add:  hahahaha  I went to put that book on my wishlist and realized I have it already.   Have to dig through my pile of books and do something from it next round of pictures!

Thanks!  I used Prismacolor Premier markers and Staedtler triplus fineliner markers.  I love coloring with vivid markers and using a lot of colors in one picture. Am still working on my picture from the Creative Cats book...almost done. It's VERY colorful!  I have one Copic Sketch marker..."Lipstick Red", and I really love using it. When I can afford them, I'm going to buy a small set of them because the one I have is great.  :my_shy:

I love all the bright colours.

I'm going to start playing with the Creative Cats book when my coloured pencils come in on Monday. I took one look at it and went NOPE, not with crayons. Can't wait to start it.

Definitely agree with you that crayons would not be the medium of choice for the cat book for the most part.  I think the designs are somewhat intricate, but I am a beginner.  In the cat picture I'm about to finish, there are some very small areas to color so a steady hand and finer point are helpful!  I've got a lot to learn, but am having fun!   :my_shy:

I ordered a few of the prismacolor and copic markers based on the recommendation of the color book author I like.   They won't be here until the 19th though, as I got them through blick.com.   I also ordered a few "artist grade" single color pencils to see if I can really tell a difference between "artist grade" and "student grade."

      Artemis (Cynthia Jeub) 4: Plotting The Grift for the New Location

      I would say that if Art isn't fundraising, that their basic needs are being met by their income.  Sure they aren't going to go out to dinner or buy lottery tickets but if their basic needs are met, they can work towards other goals without the stress of knowing if they can make rent or pay for utilities.

      Artemis (Cynthia Jeub) 4: Plotting The Grift for the New Location

      I know a trans person (male to female). It’s been about a year since they came out. Their birth name is Harry but they go by Hari.  Saw new pictures of them today & they look like a natural female.

      Artemis (Cynthia Jeub) 4: Plotting The Grift for the New Location

      some trans or nonbinary people try to pick something similar to their origin name to make the transition for other people easier. so Maddie to Matthew or Bailey to Bryan. considering Artemis real name is Cynthia, they could have gone by Cy, pronounced "sigh" or Cyril, Cyrus, Cyd. Artemis Stardust just seems like art wanted a name they deemed as "cool". but honestly makes them standout in a negative way since people know art did it on purpose and probably wasn't named that at birth. And if Art wants to change their last name why doing they just takes their partners last name. They said a while ago they were engaged and tried to thrift money for a courthouse wedding. with matching tailored tuxedos and custom rainbow rings. Art if your health  and death wishes are so important to you  just go to the courthouse and get married, you dont need to beg hard workin people for money so you can have pride rings and a custom tuxedo, there are suits at the thrift shop and cheap rings anywhere

      Crockett seems to have been spending a lot of time with his brother and Hayley in FL. I wonder if seeing them married is giving him the itch to get married, too.
