THE WHITE BOX

This box contains 80 original illustrations printed on white card stock - no repeats - and each design is printed on one side of the paper only. Each illustration was originally hand-drawn by myself (the artist) and then digitized for printing (and for digital coloring page downloads). There is no clip-art or "canned" art in this collection. Designs are printed at 50% grey so there is less emphasis on black lines and more focus on the colors you choose. This card stock allows for some use of watercolor and markers as well.

Each illustration took anywhere from 8 to 12 hours to complete … sometimes even longer, and every one of my illustrations are a labor of love. Many of the illustrations are complex and filled with a lot of small details, but they are balanced with less complex designs as well. A mix of coloring tools is encouraged—don't be afraid to take your coloring to the next level!

That said, I have to mention some IMPORTANT LEGALESE …..

PLEASE respect the time and effort that went into creating these illustrations (all of my art is officially copyrighted) and do not reproduce the black and white images, or use the images commercially. This coloring book is for your personal enjoyment. Selling any and all items using any of my images in any form is prohibited. Please do not post images from the book online without your coloring them first.

If you want to share your colored creations online, PLEASE DO! But please credit Ruby Charm (aka Susan Carlson) as the artist of the original illustration in addition to yourself as the colorist. As the artist, I retain all copyright protections, rights, and privileges. Thank you for understanding and for supporting an artist! You can reach me here if you have questions: rubycharm [!at] hotmail.com.


COLORING TIPS:

Each one of my designs is tested with color by myself or my coloring team before I let them go out into the world. I sometimes use watercolor pencils to lay down my base colors. Once my water-colored areas are dry, I go back over those colors with a variety of colored pencils in light layers to add detail, definition and depth. I also use a mix of mica paints and gel pens in my colorings as well.

If you would like to experiment with different papers, color palettes and techniques, you can download any one of the illustrations from this collection through my Etsy shop.

You can see my coloring process and samples of my colored work on my web site (RubyCharmColors.com). I'll be posting more tips and stories about my artwork as time goes on, so please give me a follow.

I also have a post dedicated to coloring on black paper here if you would like to give it a try: https://rubycharmcolors.com/2018/01/07/black-paper-black-ink-color-pop/ and here: https://rubycharmcolors.com/2018/04/10/take-2-or-3-of-the-flowered-horse/.
