Perch | Penny Black

Rowhouse Greetings | Perch by Penny Black

HEY FRIENDS! Here in Maryland, we are on our third or fourth faux spring, prompting every Cherry Blossom and Bradford Pear tree on the East Coast to bloom all at once. As a result, there is a heavy deposit of pollen over everything not moving. I’ve been practically bedridden this past week until my allergy meds finally kicked in today. So for now, I’m venturing no closer to nature than the images in my studio that I need to color. Here I’m featuring another image from the Garden Path release by Penny Black. This one is Perch (the other image in the set features a bird perched on a flower pot).

Garden Trio | Penny Black

Rowhouse Greetings | Garden Trio by Penny Black

HEY FRIENDS! I have a new coloring project for you today featuring one of the images from the new Garden Trio stamp set by Penny Black. This set includes three lovely floral sprigs as well as two sentiments stamps. I’m working one of the other images so I’ll have that for you shortly. For today, I have the first image colored in delicate shades of pink and yellow. I also have a Copic coloring video to show you exactly how I colored the image.

I stamped the image on X-Press It Blending Card using Memento Ink in Tuxedo Black. You’ll see from the video that I also underpainted the darker areas in blue to help push those areas back and give the petals some shape. Selecting shades of pink is always difficult with Copic markers since the markers tend to be too light to add dimension, too dark to color delicate petals, or too bright and florescent to look realistic for flowers. So I used a variation of a coloring combination by Amy Shulke to achieve pale petals that have a bit of shape. Amy is my go-to when I get stuck and her video on coloring pale pink flowers was my inspiration.
