With the adult coloring trend in full swing, more and more people continue to discover their favorite types of images. Some people love mandala lineart. Others prefer botanical scenes with leaves and flowers. Still others love coloring grayscale images, which can be created in one of two ways. First, a grayscale coloring page can be created by scanning a painting, drawing, or other work and removing all the color, leaving a black-and-white image behind. Second, grayscale coloring pages can be created from stunning photographs, like the one you'll see in this video. To put it simply, you can make beautiful pages you'll want to hang on your walls with just a few tools you likely already have. First, download a .pdf file with the grayscale image of your choice. If you're not sure what to color, head over to JR Grayscale Coloring, our partner image provider, and take your pick. (Until 6/25, you can get your pages 50% off the normal price when you enter the code SAFASPECIAL at checkout. Print your file, then grab your favorite set of pencils and solvent, whether you prefer odorless mineral spirits, rubbing alcohol, or even baby oil. The trick is to choose three (or more) pencils in the same color, ranging from light to dark. For example, in our video, we used light pink, pink, and magenta to represent our range of shades. Using your darkest pencil, color over the darkest areas of your image. Then, using your lightest pencil, color in the lightest areas. Finally, use the medium pencil to blend those areas together, being careful not to hide your lightest color in the process. Remember that you can go over your darker colors with the lighter ones to create a more seamless, natural-looking blend. It's this combination that gives you a beautiful image that looks 100% real - even though it's your work.
