Hi Everyone,

It has been rather an exciting fortnight! One of my pictures got a like from Johanna Basford on Instagram and as if that was not enough, another video also got a mention on Colouring Heavens Facebook page! The picture was the one above which is the treat cart from Worlds of Wonder. The video was my cauldron video which they suggested would be useful to go with their special witches edition. If you want to look at the video you can do so here.

I have also been releasing at least a new video a day as usual and also a few extras. There have been a few bonus book reviews of some of the technique books that I have recently been given. I also finished colouring Worlds of Wonder and recorded a flip-through video. You can see all of my videos by going to my YouTube page. If you click the word ‘videos’ (shown below) they are all listed in order of uploading so you will see the most recent ones first.

If you click the word to the right ‘playlists’ you will find all of my videos sorted into categories. I have organised them to make it easier for you to find videos. They are sorted by book, so if there is a particular Johanna Basford book you are using, you can see if there are videos that will help you with it. There are videos for every book. They are also sorted by pencil brand, which means that if you want to see videos demonstrating a certain brand then you can find it. I have videos using Faber Castell Polychromos, Staedtler Ergosoft, Castle Arts, Black Widows, Arteza Premium and Derwent Lightfast Pencils. I also have a few specialist sections on Metallics, Halloween, Christmas, Butterflies, Flower Centers and Backgrounds.

I have also put together a few more step by step written tutorials with photos for my website. I know that some people prefer those to videos. They are for a potted plant pictured below and the leaf pictured above and I plan on making more if they prove to be popular.

I hope that you are all finding lots of time to enjoy your colouring. I enjoy looking at all the pictures posted on Instagram using #johannabasford and in the Facebook colouring group ‘Johanna Basford Your Pages‘ as they are so inspiring and cheerful, so thank you to all of you that do that. I hope that you are all having lots of fun with your art projects.

Happy Colouring
