How to Color

For a long time, I mainly drew in black and white and went for realism than abstract or fantasy art. However, I always wanted to learn how to draw with color in a more fantasy art or graphic art form but my mind didn’t have many ideas in terms of subject matter. Recently I took a break from drawing from my own mind since I am searching for inspiration and can’t think of any great project ideas. But to fulfill my art hobby I have been using the coloring book app Lake more and it has been fulfilling.

In a previous article I talked about this app in detail, but I had not experimented with it as much as I did now and have been finding new inspiration and ideas in terms of coloring. In general I found the coloring pages themselves to have the same theme and were not realistic but more cartoonish renditions. While this was not my traditional style of art, or really my style at all, I took it as a challenge to learn how to color and put my own spin to these drawings despite only having 3 brushes to my disposal. While these brushes are not extensive like other apps, and I could import these drawings else where, the app is excellent for coloring since your colors stay within the lines by default and you are somewhat restricted with their more muted color palette which makes this even more fun and challenging.
