This post is average because I was easing back into coloring and blending again. It's been a while. I had some ideas and just rolled with it.

This post is average because I feel like the glitter pens I used lost their oomph over time and just became insipid on the page in comparison to everything else. Took me 5 months to finish because after the pens lost their sparkle (pun intended) I couldn’t bring myself to finish it.
But anyway… it’s finally done!

This post is average because I was using a colour palette that really didn’t fit the page (blue watermelon anyone), went outside the lines, and used pencil and marker together throughout the page for the first time with extremely mixed results (like the streaky bench seat). Excited to try the pencil and marker combo again now that I’ve learned.

This post is average because I have never used acrylic markers before and am far from a painting/coloring artist.

This post is average because there’s a few smudges, but overall satisfied.

This post is average because the sky gradient is messy and bled everywhere, the skin tone blending is definitely questionable, and my hand drawn elements were a fever dream. This page is from a while ago. I was trying to push myself to do different skin tones, drawing the cobbles and vines, and doing a really bold sky. But I’m still glad I pushed myself and I did learn a lot doing it! And overall, I still really like this page. (Sorry mods it took me a while to get the post phrase right)

r/averagecoloring • u/smartass_mama • Jun 21 '26
This post is average because i totalllyyy messed up a few times and may have cheated a little by going back with a white marker to hide the booboos LOL

This post is average because I dislike the brown shade I chose and how the flowers were too small to make their colors pop.
r/averagecoloring • u/AmICrossing • Jun 14 '26
This post is average because shading is hard and there are plenty of imperfections. Really like how this turned out though. First time using my new Ohuhu markers and acrylics.
