I am the same way with my Johanna and Kerby books. I have almost all of Johanna's books but have barely colored in them. And as far as Kerby goes I only owned Mythomorphia for the longest time. I did one page in it and left it in on the shelf. And not because I don't like his work but because I am afraid to ruin his pages. I just recently was brave enough to purchase several of his books and actually colored a page in Fragile World as soon as I got it. I had been eyeing it forever, love every single page in it, but never had the courage to pick it up. I am so glad I did though. It sent me on a shopping spree for his books. 😄 I haven't picked up Alien Worlds yet, it's not really my cup of tea, but started thinking maybe I would grab it and I could practice my watercolor and Neocolor in it. And then if I mess up I wouldn't care. 😆 I set some coloring goals this year and one of them was to work in my Johanna books. I love her books, and to be honest I really don't know why I haven't picked them up. I recently did a page in Rooms Of Wonder and absolutely loved it. So this year I will be working in Kerby and Johanna, along with a few other artists I have put off coloring in - and I have put off coloring in them mostly due to fear of ruining my books. Which is just quite silly. 😚 Your page in Lost Ocean with the black/dark blue background is absolutely gorgeous! It has inspired me to dig this book out and look to see if anything interests me. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely pages and collection. ❤

Thanks so much Nicole! I’m glad I’m not the only one who does this. I just completed a page in Mythic World and really enjoyed it ,so I’m definitely inspired to do more. I agree that Fragile World is just gorgeous! Good luck with your colouring goals ❤️

It was fun to see your books and hear about your coloring story. Sometimes I have to remind myself that there are no coloring police coming for me if I don’t do a background or finish a page😂. I think we need to be easier on ourselves about many things.

Wonderful collection and beautiful colorings!! Can't wait to see the next part! My copy of Small Victories also has a couple of pages that have kind of a double print, kinda looks like a shadow lol. So you're not the only one! Thank you for sharing and Happy New Year!!🩷🩷

Hi Jordy, I have all the Johanna Basford books and I have never done backgrounds in any of her books. I just colour the picture and May colour a little background area close or within the picture ( like the middle of Mandala’s or wallpaper pages. I love your monochromatic mandala, beautiful. I never burnish my colouring pages as I do not like the shiny plastic look it gives to the page and I enjoy and like my colouring so much more doing my own style instead of following other artists. I do enjoy watching what others do, but then I incorporate it into my style of colouring. I hope this helps you to find your own style and just do you. Happy colouring, (with no sore hands) 😂 and no comparison. All your pages are absolutely beautiful.

Thanks so much Deborah. It’s great you have found your own style and enjoy what you do! I’m still learning a lot, so probably haven’t settled on a particular style yet - hopefully it will come with time 🤞

Beautiful finishes! 🥰 I feel the exact same way about my Kerby Rosanes books 😅😁 I actually bought a pack of 5 of his -morphia books as spares so I can finally start some of his pages without worrying of screwing up 😆
@JordyColours7 ай бұрын
🤣it’s crazy isn’t it! I bet they look beautiful when you’ve coloured them. I actually feel braver about pages in his Alien Worlds book, probably because I can go crazy with the colours and it doesn’t have to look realistic!

I only have Magical Jungle by Joanna Basford, because...yes her books intimidate me😅. I am actually getting better with Kerby Rosanes, our buddy colors have been getting me more excited to work in his books.

I feel a lot more confident in Alien Worlds now 🤣. I need to do more in my Johanna Books though - I keep buying new books and can’t even colour in the ones I have already 😬

I did a double page spread in Enchanted Forest last year with a gradient background as well that didn’t end up working out the way I wanted it to either. Oh well, there’s no way to change it now. On that note though, if you’re interested in getting back into coloring Enchanted Forest and looking for someone to buddy color with to get you going, let me know. It is one of my books to finish eventually.

You just need to start a kerby page. You can’t go wrong with them, they are so easy to color. They just “look” difficult. 😊😉

Thank you - I’ve done quite a few now and definitely enjoying them! Just need to do some in Mythic World and Fragile World 😬. Hoping to get one done in one of those books this month 🤞🤞
