Fun with coloring (5)

Hi all, It's been a long time since my last blog. I have been quite busy for the past months.
In the next weeks I will show you some of the things I made.

In the last months I've made several trips by airplane. I didn't dare to bring my pencils, afraid they might brake or cause some trouble at the airport. so I bought some nice markers. I also bought the travel edition of the coloring book. Here are the first three colorings.

So this is is the book I bought. It is pretty handy for traveling because of the ring binding. Also the paper is thicker as the other book I have. So it is quite safe to use markers.

This is the first coloring of the book. I really like the bright colors of the markers. It makes me feel realy happy just to look at it. It looks like summer and holiday. 

Here is the second coloring it is really different as the first. I wanted to use 'watery' colors but it was quite difficult to make it attractive with only blue and green. so I added some purple and pink. It was fun to do but I am not completely happy with the result.
I made this coloring close to a swimming pool so unfortunately there are some water splotches on the paper. This made some ugly marks at the other side of the paer.

When is saw this coloring I was in love with it (that was before the splotches). I like the wavy fishes and the air bubbles. I really hate the water splotches here so I didn't finish it. I am still doubting if I want to finish it. But the background is a lot of work. So I am still not sure. What do you think?

And these are the markers I use. I like my pencils better but this is is more practical for traveling. 

I love the brightness of the colors but the dark colours look a lot like each other so the color choice is limited.
