There is Always a Reason to Dance

 A sweet coloring today from the artwork of Jody Bergsma.

This delightful coloring book was a 2021 Christmas gift from my daughter. 

The pages are small (6" x 7") with tiny details.

The title is actually given by the artist. 

I loved this scene!

Thanks for coming by and have a great weekend!

 Coloring is so relaxing and also helps with boredom. 

I haven't colored in so long and am trying to re-learn some things.

This wonderful 6" x 7" coloring book was a Christmas gift from my daughter. 

 

Although I'm not totally pleased how this one turned out, 

it sure was relaxing to color again!

I dressed up the plain circle by drawing some star bursts.

I bought Faber-Castell Polychromos colored pencils awhile back 

and boy do they go on as smooth as butter!!

I LOVE the Faber-Castell Pitt Pastels given to me by my sister. 

I use them for backgrounds because they are 

AWESOME for blending and smoothing. 

Check these 'before' and 'after' photos to show what I'm talking about.

Doesn't the purple at the bottom look horrible at this point?

Look how wonderful blending makes this look!

I use a Q-Tip for larger areas and blending stumps for smaller ones.

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a great day,
