Coloring Contest

06-21-02

I have been anxiously waiting for Mena's next coloring contest at Dollar Short. I checked yesterday and there it was! When I first came across her website, I found her first coloring contest and spent several hours coloring before I realized that not only was it over, but there had been a second one that was over too - but I learned so much from my coloring efforts, and it is because of this that I feel confident (sort of) about tackling a full deck of tarot cards in this way. We spent the afternoon and evening at Will & Val's last night and the kids wore Aidan out completely, so I was able to do a little last night. A contest is so good for me, I am shamefully competitive, and already what I have done looks far better than the first tarot card I tackled.

Looks great! The trick is shading and you show an understanding of that. You might try a different color or shade on areas of the apron - pocket, waist ribbon, and ribbon at bottom.Love, Mom

It looks good! I have the Alice in Wonderland coloring book but I am not very neat about it or anything. Good luck in the contest!
