Hello and welcome to the brand-new 30 Day Coloring Challenge! I am so excited to be a part of this fun blog hop to celebrate the beginning of a new challenge.
If you aren’t familiar with this challenge, you must know about it! My dear friend Kathy from the Daily Marker started this cool challenge last year and it has been so popular. The purpose of this challenge is to take a few minute each day to color something.
It doesn’t have to be fancy or anything. And if you can’t you don’t need to feel pressured to color every day. Whenever you can is good! This is a great way to distress and relax at it has definitely helped me a lot whenever I participate.
My goal during this challenge is to go out of my comfort zone and play with various coloring mediums and try different techniques. So, for today’s project, I decided to do a no-line watercoloring. I think I only did 1 time and it was kind of a quick, cheating way – so for me to really do try this technique I had to just let go of my normal self and learn to enjoy the process itself.
This was also my first time really using the Dr. Ph. Martins Radiant Concentrated Watercolors and I have to say it is so much fun! A little goes a very long way – and they are so transparent, I love how the end result came out to be.
Coloring can me so soothing and relaxing. This is one of my favorite ways to relax after a hard day at work or when I am feeling down and just need some me-time.
I hope you give coloring a try and color something every day during this challenge. Remember to share your projects with all of us on Instagram by using #TheDailyMarker30Day so we can check them out. Can’t wait to see what you will color!
