I made this drawing and turned it into a coloring page for my Colored Pencil Workshop which I thought offered opportunities for learning about textures, layering and color matching.

This was another flower which I drew and made into a coloring page for my Colored pencil workshop.

It offered enough simplicity in structure although allowed for some lessons in overlapping structures and shadowing.

I drew this directly from the source for the Colored Pencil Workshop I taught.  The spikes were drawn a bit more exaggerated so the students could actually fill in the colors.

This drawing is available for purchase here on my website as an instant download in the shop section.

I had been working on my very first Coloring Book for adults and kids since June 2016 and this a digital collage image of how parts of mybook will look. These are a few images I drew for the Owl pattern page. The final coloring page is pictured on the lower half of the photo.

This is a photo of the front and back cover of my very first Coloring Book, "Botanimals" where plants and animals illustrate whimsical relationships to one another.  I have fun with a bit of wordplay throughout the book and I hope you will enjoy my hand-drawn illustrations designed for all ages to enjoy! I also have included several pattern pages which can be used as gift wrap, envelope liners, Origami objects or anything else you can think of!

Stay tuned for the final product coming soon on Amazon!

Here it is!!! My very first coloring book! Hard to believe it is a reality after so many long hours of drawing, scanning, editing, photoshopping, etc. Click on the link below to purchase. It would make a great gift to anyone who loves coloring plus I have woven a subtle theme throughout which has to do with both plants and animals. You may even learn something new with my book!
