If you have any questions or suggestions to color together a specific picture - let me know in the comments. I speak English, Italian and understand French.
Your coloring is stunning! Thank you for sharing. I need to practice with all these mediums. The only thing I seem to be good at is buying supplies.
Thank you so much Vanessa! I'm sure that sooner or later you will start to use all your supplies. I'm convinced that the best pictures we can get by combining various mediums, so you have a lot of fun ahead of you experimenting with all your supplies
I sat here with my mouth open. You are amazing. Just breathtaking. I’m struggling with feeling hopeless and inadequate now but you are giving me something to aim at. I bow to your talent Alena.
Your colored pages are exquisite. I didn't want this video to end!
I could stare at all your colored images backgrounds and all! I would love to know what makes you choose the colors, style, designs or inspiration making the layout of your backgrounds. Truly, your colored/painted images are true works of art. Th am you for sharing so clearly a lot of information of your many mediums of experience you gained in making the backgrounds. 🙏🏻
Thank you for showing us your work and giving an in depth commentary on how you approach your color work and how to use different mediums. You make many good points and was NOT babbling! Most of all you let us know that it takes a lot of time and practice and hard work to achieve such an impressive level of ability.
Thank you, I'm glad that it was helpful! What I was trying to explain, is that during my first year of coloring backgrounds terrified me and only with time and practice I started to fell more confident, so people don't have to be discouraged by their first failed attempts.
NOT boring AT ALL learned a lot! LOVELY
I am still very challenged by backgrounds! Yours look so amazing and inspire me to try more of your techniques. 😄
Thank you dear Elizabeth! I'm happy that video was inspiring
I have always admired your backgrounds Alena, those exquisite marbled finishes are my favourites, and even your simplest ones are well thought out. Any words on how you produce them is always informative, but even if it wasn't, I would still watch the whole way through just to see again your beautiful colourings!
Thank you! I always remember how terrified I was as a beginner when I needed to do something with the background. Now I feel more confident but still each time background is a challenge because it's such an important part of the coloring...
Very inspirational and amazing backgrounds. I need to try more methods. Thank you.
I love your watercolor backgrounds! They seem the most complex and interesting.
Thank you! For a long time I was afraid to do backgrounds, but now I enjoy to mix paints and to use watercolors together with other mediums
Your backgrounds are beautiful! Thank you for sharing!!
Your finished pictures are gorgeous I wish I could colour like you ...
Thank you so much for this video and your beautiful art. As a beginner, I was seeing so many beautiful backgrounds and not sure which mediums were being used to achieved the different effects and this video really helped me with that!
Also, I didn't find any comment with timestamps, maybe this will help someone (and myself as I might watch this video again in the future 😁):
0:39 soft pastel
6:28 acrylic paint
10:56 gouache
11:30 neocolor ii
14:42 watercolor
20:30 regular pencils
Thank you for sharing your knowledge 💚 Love your color alongs.
Your pages area amazing! So much talent and patience! Thank you for your encouraging words to not worry about mistakes.
Thanks so much Alena. Very insightful. Carla
Your pictures are all so beautiful! Very good information. I agree with soft pastel background being the easiest for beginners. It's the first different thing I tried after pencil. Another benefit it it saves your pencils.
I agree with you - soft pastel is easy for beginners because you can do background very quickly, can use it on any paper and easily erase it if something goes wrong. It looks much better also comparing to backgrounds made with uneven and untidy huge pencils strokes.
Excellent information. Thank you for your generosity.
Thank you! I'm happy that video was helpful!
❤ wow you are so talented! Amazing work! ❤And thank you for all the information. I will watch all tour videos how you color.
Beautiful work ! Just Beautiful ! You are far from boring ! It was a very good tip to use the less interesting pages for practicing ! 😊
This was awesome. You are my favorite artist on RUclips. There is noone better . I'm blown away with your talent. God BLESS you always. Thanks for sharing. Great great awesome BEAUTIFUL!!!!
Your colouring is gorgeous!! Great to pick up tips from you to help in my own work.
Beautiful backgrounds. I’m going to practice Neocolor II.
Thank you so much Alena! Very useful information and your pictures are just beautiful.
Thank you so much Nikki!
I love your coloured pictures, they look like you have given a lot of thought to choosing the colours.
Your work is the most beautiful and insipiring pages. You are such an encouraging person and you are far from boring. Thank you for sharing.
You are way too modest, beautiful colorings, very,very beautiful backgrounds !
You can make any picture absolutely beautiful. Thank you
Your work is amazingly beautiful 🤩
Alena, love your style of coloring backgrounds and animals and flowers , love your videos. Hope you are safe, very sorry what’s happening to your country, prayers for all of you in Ukraine.
Thank you for sharing your lovely pictures. They are absolutely gorgeous. And, no, the video was not at all boring; quite the opposite. :)

thanks for all your suggestion I have struggled with a watercolor background I will try some of your ideas thanks again for all your help
Beautiful!!!
Thank you for sharing, it was informative and helpful, and a joy to see your finished pictures. Beautifully done.
I like your flower book.
Not boring at all. I've been coloring for about two and a half years and have yet to tackle a background. I am going to do it on the page I'm doing now in one of Maria Trolle's books. I was researching and I saw this. I should've known you had covered this. Thank you for your wonderful instructions and beautiful colorings. Happy New Year, btw. May this year bring peace to Ukraine 🇺🇦
Thanks so much for the wonderful inspiration.
Thank you so much for this! I am a beginner colorist, and this video was just what I was looking for! Your coloring is such an inspiration!
Thank you alena for your partage
Thank you very much! I could NEVER color as beautiful as you but I will try
Thank you Alena! That was very useful, as you say, backgrounds can be very challenging. Your work is absolutely amazing!
Another great background option is to use dry gelatos rub them on acrlic block use a finger dauber to sponge up dry gelatos and use circular motion on paper. You get an effect similar to chalk pastel and they blend beautifully and you can layer pencil on top.
Your coloring is beautiful.
Thank you so much!
This is very helpful. Thank you so much for taking the time to explain each medium and your process for each.
I really enjoyed your information on trying out background art mediums and how each type felt to you. It is good information and helpful.
Thank you! I'm glad that it was helpful!
Absolutely stunning work, Alena! I will need to go and make a start on my books 😎👍
Gorgeous work, beautifully, enchanting really, very inspiring. Thank you for sharing with us.
Thank you so much, Alena You have given me so many fantastic ideas for backgrounds.

Love your work
Thank you
Thank you for sharing! Your work is so beautiful! 🎨💖
A lovely collection of colourings. Your backgrounds are always gorgeous, rich in colour and detail.
Awesome pages and great information
Thanks for sharing Alena. I love your work
Lovely work !!! 🤗 Amazing that you can speak several languages ! I need to break out my Neocolors 2 now !
Neocolors definitely deserve not to be abandoned, they are such an interesting and versatile medium. I'm sure you will enjoy them! My first attempts with them weren't easy but then gradually I started to learn them better and started to appreciate how helpful they are in coloring books
Olá, sou do Brasil! Amei seus coloridos! Você é uma artista incrível!!
Thank you, Alena, that is a very insightful video. I love your work!
Thank You
Lovely work alena! Yr bkgrs are an education to we colourists. Keep posting tutorials, i learn so much! Hello from ontario canada 🇨🇦🤩
Brilliant work!! Absolutely stuning!
So helpful
I'm very happy to hear it!
Not boring, very informative. I am working through Karlzon's books and you gave me great ideas. Thank you!
Best video! I could look at your art all day!
Thank you so-o-o-o much dear Jessica! 💟
Alena, you're an amazing colorist. Thank you so much for this video, it's very useful.
Thank ypu dear Cynthia, I'm happy that video was helpful
Your video was so informative and helpful. I am a beginner and love coloring. My dilemma is what background to use as a beginner and is it necessary to fill in all of the negative space. I am trying to decide on which soft pastels to purchase. There are so many choices and so many opinions. What to do? I will be watching more of your videos. Your pages are breathtaking.
thanks for a great video :)
Your coloring is so very beautiful! Your video is very helpful. I have not finished backgrounds because of worry to ruin the page! I have pastels and gouache and I. Use Prismas so I will start there. Thank you!
wonderful! What an abundance of beautiful backgrounds😍 so much inspiration! Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much for watching dear Irene!
Thank you, Alena!
Your colouring is phenomenal; the Basford and Karlzon books don't appeal to me as colouring books, but I'd love a copy of yours already coloured in.
You are the best colorer I have seriously ever seen. The cat with wings in Magical Dawn you passed briefly (at 12:50) & I was like OMG! All of them are just stunning!! I just subbed to your channel. I’m looking forward to learning from you!
Alena, Thanks to you I have started to try to make backgrounds. I have Neocolor II crayons and you are right about practice. I would appreciate it if you could do some tutorials with different art mediums, especially Neocolor II backgrounds. I would like to know how to achieve the different types of textures that you have done in your pictures. I enjoy all your videos and have learned a lot from you and I look forward to viewing many more.
Thankyou for an awesome video - you have given me lots of inspiration - your works are amazing. I have tried gesso for backgrounds and your right there is no added benefit. I also use distress ink and chalk ink for my backgrounds.
Very enjoyable and informative, as always!
Thank you dear Claudia, I'm glad that it was helpful!

Stunning coloring Alena! 😍
Thank you!
Stunning is an understatement! Where did you get the books? They look so cool
Thank you! I get books from Amazon and Bookdepository
OMG 😱 these are gorgeous..am just starting and your work is stunning..pls do tutorial for acrylic background 😇
Thank you so much,this video is very helpful 😊 😘
Thank you! I'm so happy to hear it!
this was amazing!
Алена, а Вы не могли бы снять видео, как вы работаете над acrylic mixmedia background? 😊 Ваши работы просто волшебные сказки.
Я постараюсь... не то, чтобы у меня была какая-то особая технология, просто я использую акрил в тех случаях, если а) бумага слишком тонкая для акварели или б) хочется плотного фона (без акварельных размывов и пятен) или в) когда хочется многослойности - поверх перманентного акрила можно еще нанести водорастворимые неоколор или просто карандаши, не боясь, что первый слой размоется. В общем, я подумаю, как это обобщить в видео. P.S. Спасибо за подписку!
Stunning ❤️
Thank you! 🌹🌹🌹
Wouldn’t soft pastels rub and smear on the page when flipping pages or closing the book? How do you seal them?
I don't use fixatives, I apply relatively small amount of pastel pigment and I rub it thoroughly into paper with cotton pad. It doesn't smear on the other pages, but unfortunately you can't get intense colors and saturated background with this method. That's why I use it very rarely. But sometimes for light sky background it still can be helpful
All your pages are very beautiful. Do you have a workshop or videos where you teach background techniques ? I would love to take classes with you because I never know exactly what to do when I get to the background part of my colorings. Thank you for sharing, I appreciate it.
I have videos for all my colored pictures, where I show how I do both backgrounds and main image. I don't know if I can call them special background workshops, they are simply my processes of coloring.... Here ruclips.net/video/RTa_3A7sspE/видео.html I show how I did Neocolor background, here ruclips.net/video/Krh57NJQ9-g/видео.html I talk about my difficulties with neocolor backgrounds. In other videos I do watercolor backgrounds...
@@ColoringwithAlena Thank you for the links. I thought you had a patreon or website with classes. Anyway, I appreciate your reply.💞
@@floralheart I do have Patreon, but as I said, I post there my process videos, where I comment how I color, but it's not general lessons like 'How to color fur' or 'How to color skin'. here is an example of regular Patreon video ruclips.net/video/nzjbs9cx78o/видео.html
Beautiful pages! Could you do a video on each of the techniques? I searched on your playlists but I think they are organized by book...
Which do you do first Alena, the background or the main coloring?
Well, it depends from the image but in 90% I start from the background
Alena you are one of my favorite artists.. especially your backgrounds are beyond amazing. I've been searching your channel to try to find any videos of you using the watercolors, acrylic, and also the gouache paints you use in your backgrounds that you showed on this video. Also do you have any videos of you using the coliro watercolor paints? I will definitely will be becoming a patreon soon. Do you have a website as well? O want to buy the separate colors of gouache and acrylic paints to try to recreate what you did on your backgrounds in this video. It would be nice if you could recommend what colors I need and if you could point me to any videos with tutorials of the watercolor, gouache, or acycrlic backgrounds. I love your work but am new to these mediums and would love to learn your techniques for these different backgrounds. I learn by replicating and then once I get that down I can be free to do what pops in my head. It's weird but at night I see colors and visions put together but unless I write them down I can't remember them? And I don't know how to replicate them either. It only happens when I start coloring. I took a 5 year break from coloring and I use to get these patterns and beautiful color schemes in my head at night when laying down to sleep. They just flow. Now that I've started coloring again its happening again. I know it's the weirdest thing but I wonder if this happens to anybody else? Anyway any help you could give me would be wonderful. You are one of the most talented artists I have seen and you do all sorts of mixed media wonderfully. Thank you for your inspiration and help.
Hiya, I love your videos and how you color and I was wondering if you could make a video listing the materials you use? Thank you :)
