This is my entry for the zen colouring contest this week:
This is what the stencil looked like before I started colouring on it:
Suggestion for next week's colour is green.
Thanks for creating and hosting this contest, @magiccleatus.
Each week @magiccleatus puts up a stencil, and everyone is invited regardless of skill level to choose a stencil and colour it any way you want: digital, or print it out and colour it the old fashioned way using any of the various methods whether it be crayons, coloured pencils, markers or water colours, or whatever you choose to use.
And thanks to @dreemsteem and @bluefinstudios, @xcountytravelers, @thekittygirl, @shadowspub, and to @viking-ventures for their tireless efforts and inspiration for helping me to learn, grow and develop on @steemit.com and this community.
Also want to add @magiccleatus and @lildebbiecakes for creating the envy and
inspiration to push myself for better quality artwork.
Here are some other contests that may be of interest to you as well if you enjoy the
relaxation of colouring and freehand drawing:

Fantastic coloring, I like this one’s the best, it’s my favorite entry in the contest thus far friend! Your really getting the hang off shading, and once again, your color combinations are outstanding on your tulips 🌷, and the black background makes it so eye appealing. Good luck my friend ❣️

Ohhh! I like your coloring too! I don't know how to do it digitally, so I just old fashioned print it and color or paint.

There is nothing wrong with printing it out and doing the old fashioned way, but digitally is way easier than you think if you have a laptop or desktop; I'll meet you in Steem Terminal some time and explain it, but if you only have a phone or a tablet, like ipad, I don't know what programs they have on there.

There are a bunch of free art programs that you can choose from to download, and play if you so choose, I have Krita, GIMP, Sketchbook (which I really like so far, still experimenting), Inkscape, and a couple others. And there are plenty of people around that will help you anytime you need help, like @lildebbiecakes, or @deemarshall, and I know they also print out sometimes and paint I believe.
And there is certainly nothing wrong with printing it out and doing it manually! I still do that sometimes...

Wow! I love the mixture of colours, the oranges, yellow and purple compliment pinks wonderfully, I also love that you made some of the flowers two-toned. I like the darker shades you used in the petals to create a sense of depth and dimension. I also like the black background, it makes all of the colours stand out together nicely!
Thanks for naming Green! as your suggestion for next weeks featured colour!

I installed Krita, and I do like how the brush follows your turns and things, still figuring out how to properly layer things etc but that should be simple enough once I make a proper document actually.

Yes, but I would recommend (if you do not have one) a drawing tablet; works 100% better than a mouse...If you want more info, hit me up in Discord (in our DM) and I have an outstanding recommendation for you...
