Coloring as a hobby and an art form
In 2017 I took a leap of faith and decided to focus on my artwork full time. I love drawing lines. My old illustration instructor would wince if he heard me say that (since he wanted me to focus on form), but it's what I love to do. Line drawings, of course, are perfect for coloring books. And guess what? I learned that I loved the process of coloring almost as much as the design process itself.
After completing a collection of illustrations for my first book, I saved each illustration as a vector graphic in black and white as well as a 40% greyscale version to offer as digital downloads. I currently have two hand-made Artist Edition books, both spiral-bound and printed on sturdy card stock, available in my Etsy shop for a limited time. I also have the Ruby Charm Colors Adult Coloring Art Journals (Volumes 1 & 2) available online. My digital downloads on Etsy will always be available for your coloring enjoyment!
My Etsy shop and website will organically evolve over time, and if you any questions about my work or what I offer, please don't hesitate to email me at susan [!at] rubycharmcolors.com.
Cheers to art and creativity!
Best,
Susan
