It took me a little time to see the kitty but when I did I thought beautiful. The whole thing.

OK... here is the same picture done in different colors. Sorry for the sloppy work, but I really wasn't into this this week. I am now in the process of passing a kidney stone... day two! I feel like crap and my back is killing me!

I love how those are all so unique! Sorry about your kidney stone! That's a terrible pain - I have passed several over the years myself. Just last year I had to have a 7mm stone removed surgically but the pain beforehand was awful. Hoping it passes quickly!
@Fyllis, I love how you have done the same design in different colours. Not to mention how amazing it is you managed anything at all with kidney pain, I haven't experienced it my self but have been told it is one of the most severe kinds of pain you can experience. Hope that stone passes quickly and you make a speedy recovery.
Love the variations! Ohhh---pooh---- a kidney stone...so painful....they said that the pain of a kidney store passing is equal to labor without drugs....ooooohhhhhhh..
((hugs)))

Thanks! I am starting on day 3 of trying to pass this stupid stone. I've had them in the past and I know it can take from a few days to several weeks. I am avoiding the ER for several reasons - the main one being a I don't have any insurance, and secondly, I just dread the waiting and the boredom of laying around and waiting on results. I am an 'instant-gratification' type person and I want results NOW! LOL I guess it has a lot to do with me having been a nurse for over 20 years and knowing what goes on 'behind the curtain', so to speak.
If I could just walk into the ER and say, "I am currently passing a kidney stone" and get immediate treatment without all the red tape and hullabaloo and jumping through hoops, I'd be there already. In the meantime, I am sitting here drinking some sparkling water anticipating the next uncontrollable urge to pee. I know it is moving - I can feel it. But, it is certainly taking it's good time! If it doesn't clear over the upcoming weekend, I will probably go to the hospital next week. I don't want to spend the Holidays in a hospital...
OK, enough talk about kidney stones, LOL Let's get back to making beautiful artwork!
Well I hope you have some good painkillers to help you through! Kidney stones are terrible! My whole family is a bunch of "stoners"! My grandfather had 17 during his lifetime and my father has had 22...looks like I'm following suit...only 5 for me so far! Good luck maybe the coloring will help keep your kind from it!
There's an iPhone / iPad app that turns images you take into images to color in: http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/this-app-turns-photos-into-images-you-can-color-225545 It looks interesting. Personally I like to hold an actual pencil or crayon or marker in my hand and color than to swipe a finger around a screen.
It's lovely.Finally finished my first picture from the Lost Ocean book...
Thanks! I'm working on the next one and hope to be done with it soon. I think I like this book better than the enchanted forest and he secret garden. It's a different color pallet.
Another lost ocean picture done.
I love it! And so much work in that colouring in. The colour choices are beautiful.
Thanks

Anyone else have creative havens midnight garden book? All the pictures are printed with a black background instead of white. I found it this weekend and just started it. Curious to see if any others have completed pictures in this book.
I love that rabbit design.
^^ This one is actually silver circles on a white background. It just looks blue from the lighting.
Lots of great coloring posted here recently
Thanks
I downloaded a coloring app for my phone today. It just isn't the same as coloring with actual pencils. Tapping the screen is annoying (at least on my phone. Sometimes I tap and nothing happens) and if you don't zoom in close enough, the color might end up somewhere else. The app I downloaded has an undo feature which is nice. The finished picture looks too perfect. No smudges, no stray marks outside of the lines, no pencil stroke marks in the colored areas. I can see how a coloring app might be useful to kill some time say, waiting at a doctor's office. I'll stick with old fashion hand coloring with pencil and paper
