Fan Of … Coloring Books & Escapist Coloring Club – August 
The Escapist Coloring Club Prompt – August 1, 2019
***
I would say I’m a fan of coloring books, and always have been.
When I was a kid, I was always coloring, then later on I’d color in books my kids had, and now they have coloring books for grown-ups. They are all fun and have interesting designs and pictures.
I do have a lot of them … whole drawers full of them, and can’t resist getting more whenever I see one. Some I get from the stores that sell them, and some I get from yard sales.
I don’t limit myself to the so called ‘adult’ type coloring books, either. I still like the simple children’s type of coloring books, too. Sometimes I get tired of the teeny tiny designs in the current fad, and just want a larger area to color in, and maybe add my own shadings and designs within the larger parts.
I use regular crayons, colored pencils, and markers to fill in the spaces, depending on how I want it to look. All in all, it’s a fun hobby, and also relaxing.

Here’s a few pages I’ve colored in the past:

Those colouring books look like a lot of fun 😁 My wife got me some for whilst I was in hospital a while back, and they certainly helped pass the time.

Thanks, Jez!
They are great for passing the time, aren’t they! I just need to remember to set some time aside to do a page or two a day. 🙂

Thanks, Li!
I seem to have gotten away from coloring a page every day or so, tending to remember when it’s gotten late in the evening. Then I figure it’s too late to get it all out. I go flipping through page after page trying to find one that sparks an interest to color. Then I put it all away with nothing done. I need a better system. haha!

I resemble your comment 😉 I got a new book yesterday which will help spark me. I don’t have to put it all away because I live alone — unless I get a visitor. At night works best for me because I get up so late (probably due to staying up late coloring) lol

That should do it – a new book to color in!
I have my corner of the living room with all my stuff & computer, so can get to it all pretty easy. I don’t stay up very late anymore, maybe 10:30. But I get up very early like 4:30 or 5. I do the blog and reading for about 12 hours, then a few games. Instead of games, I should color a page again! 🙂
