The Butterfly Colouring Contest #9 by @deemarshall
Hi all lovely steemians,
Thank you for @deemarshall hosted this beautiful butterfly contest. In this contest, I would like to try something different than my usual coloring pattern. I tried to stand out the colorful butterfly and flowers by applying dark color to the background and other objects. This idea similar to effect of filtering in a photo. The idea cross my mind because of inktober day. I told myself why not I gave it a try on something new in color the stencil. Since I do not have ink drawing pen, I used dark color to do the effect.
Since this was a butterfly contest, butterfly and flowers always like twin sisters. So i have chose flower and butterfly to be colored in a bright color. For the dark color, I basically used black, grey, brown and blue to generate the dark color effect.
After that, I decided on how to color the flowers, what would be the combination of the colors, whether to color it with same color for all or each flower has their unique color. “What was the fun if I didn’t used all the available bright color” I asked myself. Finally, I decided to color it differently, I have chosen some bright color for the flowers. The color mainly are the combinations of red, purple, orange, light green, yellow, purple, a bit of blue.
Now, our main beautiful butterfly in this coloring contest. I have some doubt on how I should color the butterfly. Whether color it as detail as possible or just used the shading technique. If an object is small, it not easy to do a detail coloring, shading would be easier. Since I in the mood of coloring, I just applied both technique together. Hope the combination of color it shown the beauty of the butterfly.
It was a challenged to color in traditional way. It was not erasable if you made a mistake. Once a mistake made, I need to use another color to shade it by just to cover the mistake. This was the reason why you noticed there were few shading layers in my color project.

I thinks the dull and dark colours work really well in your colouring to make the brighter ones stand out and accentuates your shading!
