Anyone into colouring?

Hellooooooooooo!!!
V.I.P Member
I'm so into adult colouring books at the moment. But I'm not so big on patterns. I prefer scenes, so I bought these 4 colouring books from Amazon.

It's so relaxing to colour these while listening to my audiobooks. I want to be doing it right now but I'm at work. Why can't I get paid to colour and listen to audiobooks? Lol

Anyone else into colouring?
 
I spent a career working with colour, automobiles, appliances house siding any product made from pre-painted coils
of various substrates, expert on the technical aspects of industrial colour control. It surprises me how much of the colour of various products I see around me I had direct control of.
 
I did like it when I was small. But it was always soldiers, etc.

I did do it for a week or so later in life while recovering in hospital. It was a very relaxing occupation. That time it was filling in Napoleonic Uniforms, which greatly interested me at the time.

they wanted me do coulouring and other kids' stuff in hospital as therapy for my stroke as computer therapy was next to useless for me as I do not do computer games.
 
Colouring isn't just for kids, which is why they sell colouring books for adults. A few years ago it was all the rage among adults.
I have a large variety of coloured pens and I'm very neat with my colouring.
 
This is a page from a Pan (the movie) - themed colouring booklet I borrowed from my grandmother last month.

I love those.
I should buy a new one but I have quite a few already.
Yes I love colouring too and I do it mindfully
So I just do it the way I feel it.
It helps me relax and it is fun.
 
I enjoy augmenting drawings (not necessarily from a book) with colors that are sometimes thoughtfully colored outside the lines. Coloring outside the lines can (in of itself) might have an artistic value.
 
Coloring in coloring books is something my Mama and I used to like doing together. Maybe we should start it back. It was always fun.
