In today’s weekend WIP video I am working in Mythographic Aviary and Fairy Wonderland. Creating backgrounds with some Neocolor 2 and chalk pastel.
Join my Instagram color along or just look at all the awesome pages down so far #colormythographic2025

Hi Erica, I’m enjoying seeing your palette inspirations and methods. Hope that we all reach some peace wherever we are in the world.
It might be a music box??

Hi Erica, I love the way you choose inspiration images to help plan a page, I’ve started doing that and it’s really fun. Please may I ask what you put into the search engine of Pinterest to get some of those pictures, if you don’t mind? Thanks so much. I love your work ❤
@@ColouringwithK Hi K ☺️ I usually will add the word illustration to whatever it is I’m searching for when I’m looking for objects or animals. And for the backgrounds, I usually add a color and the word abstract when searching (ie blue abstract background). Also, lots of fantasy things, too (ie fantasy birds, fantasy forest, etc). Hope that helps! Thanks for watching ❤️
@ thanks so much Erica, that does help! Have a fab weekend xx
How many pages do you use fixatives on? Like with the chalk pastels, would you spray that when you’re done? Even colored pencils…I’m questioning if those need to be sprayed so as you close and open your books and the pages rub together, would spraying it help keep your pages neat or does spraying each page ruin the book? Love your process! You make me want all the things 😂🧡
@@tulgeywoodcolors Hi Jennifer ☺️ I very rarely use fixative. Usually only when I’m adding lots of chalk pastel on top of a watercolor background or if I’m layer bunches of chalk. The background I did today with chalk doesn’t have that much on it and it’s really pretty ground into the paper. I have seen others use wax paper between their pages if they are worried about the pencil transferring. I don’t worry too much about that, though. It’s just another step I’m too lazy to take lol. Thanks for watching!!
You are not just seeing it. I had the same thing happen to me one time. I also thought I was going crazy. Apparently it’s the pigment in something, either the pencil or the pastel reacting with the posca. It’s soooo bizarre!
@@lightheartedcoloring I’ve had my Posca turn color before on top of certain prismacolors and water based markers. I hadn’t used either on this page which is why it threw me for a loop lol. Thanks for watching!!
Politics and coloring don't mix... peace ❤
I also agree. The political mention left a bad taste in my mouth.
