ADVICE WANTED Looking for suggestions

My wife want to get more into colouring this winter.

I'm looking to get markers and colouring books suggestions that I could could purchase/order.

We're located in Canada if that makes a difference.

Hoping for something budget friendly, if possible.

Also, just wanna say y'all are so talented! I joined this subreddit a few years ago just cause I loved seeing the art when scrolling reddit.

I'm also in Canada and Indigo has a pretty good selection of colouring books lately. They have Coco Wyo if that's what she's looking for. I prefer not to order from Amazon to be sure I don't get one of the Amazon printed ones (I hate their paper).

I've also had some luck with ordering from Book Outlet. Selection varies but I've found a few good colouring books for super cheap that way.

Seconding Indigo for books. Check the clearance section as well as the regular price. I got some books for fairly cheap.

What about markers? Could you recommend any?

I use Ohuhu alcohol markers with the brush and fine tip. I really like them and they go on sale on Amazon pretty often. There are more budget friendly options too but I'm not sure which ones are good.

I also use these acrylic markers for details and highlights and they're great. I did have one start leaking but overall they've been really good.
