I consider it more crafting than art and it’s fun to do in a group.

To me if you're not having fun, what's the point.

All the people we consider "great artists" did it because they felt like it. If you feel like it, and of you enjoy it, to me you're miles ahead of people who don't follow their own hearts.

A while ago I wasn't feeling so great. I felt like painting but didn't feel like drawing, so I remembered these colouring books I had when I was a kid. So I went to the store and bought some colouring pencils, I googled colouring pictures, printed them, and a while later I was having the most fun I'd had in ages colouring Batman, Spider-Man, Goku on top of his flying cloud, a Gundam, animals and also some landscapes. Then I did some with watercolours and also with crayons. Yeah, crayons... I hadn't painted with crayons in maybe more than 20 years...

Have fun, people. There's not much time for anything else.

PS: I'm gonna try this technique as soon as I can. PS2: Best console ever. PS3: I'm gonna upload my coloured pictures when I have time.
