Somewhere Under The Rainbow Colorings


(above: the coloring kit)

(i'll give 'em some names: brownie girl)


(blue haired girl, 1st one i colored too)

(xmas girl)

(bandages girl)

(bumble bee girl)

i got a sweet coloring book a few months back. no no no, it's not a KIDS one. so how could that be you're wondering, right? well, it's by one of my fave artists, Tara McPherson, & it's called Somewhere Under The Rainbow. (i think it's still available on Amazon, and was put out through Dark Horse Comics, could still be on their site too.) basically it's a coloring book full of her art...from band posters she made to her fine art paintings. it's a really great idea & i hope more of my fave artists use this concept in the future...like Mr. Ryden & Ms. Olivas. that would rule!

so i colored a little today. hm, maybe 3-4 pages, cuz i was lounging around & didn't feel like leaving the couch for a while. :) so here's some i've colored since October. oh, and i use colored pencils, markers, and crayons. but i'm liking colored pencils the most. (fyi: some of the pics in the book are really detailed & idk if i'm gonna color those...would prob take me quite a while...so i continue to do the "easier" ones for the time being.)

hope you'll like my colorings!~
