- Let's colour a page together in Johanna's new book. I am using Prismas today and will colour the four castles page. I change the hanging basket (during the video) and the rainbow after I had finished filming as really didn't like how it looked. I hope you enjoy spending some colouring time with me 🤗💖

The statement you made about taking time for the smallest bit of encouraging news to help lift you out of the depression rang very true with me. My daughter died suddenly in April, 2022. Now my husband and I are raising her little boy. We are 70, he is now 7. It’s not easy. We are all beginning to see brighter days now but it is still taking time. We’ve been in and out of court to ensure that our grandson can remain with us. Long months of things to be burdened with. You are one of the bright lights in my world!!! I love relaxing and coloring with you. Sending love and hugs, my friend!
Hi Marsha it must be so hard, you have been through so much. I'm glad your grandson has such incredible grandparents. Much love to you sweetheart ❤️
Hard things, yes, more than a few; but God is faithful to provide what we’ve needed in the way of emotional support. I really love this Community of colorists! So many talented artists who are so kind and loving - always helping us learn new techniques. I feel like I have friends all over the world. I am here for you too, my dear! My Mandy had terrible anxieties along with several autoimmune diseases. She was constantly in pain, and could sometimes be sick with worrying over things she couldn’t control. I know that she is completely healed now and suffers no more. Anxiety is a terrible illness made worse because it’s “invisible “. People don’t understand that you can’t just “get over it”, or “stop dwelling on it.” You are courageous and brave for sharing yourself with us! You are very-much appreciated and loved!!!
I have never seen the dot technique, so cool. Your video is perfect. Love your ideas. Stay well.
Thank you! You too! Xx
Beautiful page!🥰
Thank you so much xx
Hi Lucy! Just writing to tell you that i am colouring my book following this tutorial but using my faber castell pencils, so thank you so much for doing this :) ❤
Congratulations on another baby in the family! How fun! So glad that you will get some relief with lessened work hours! The little ones will still have you and you’ll have more time to color - I hope! Thank you for sharing with us how this page came to be, color selection and working it through! Take care!!! 🥰
I Think You Are A Genuine Lovely Person. Thank You For Your Video's. Take Care. X
Thank you so much Deborah 💓
Thank you so much Lucy, for doing this tutorial with Prismas, as I learned some really nice new colour combos and how to create little bushes/shrub/tree foliage to use in my projects. Love the harmony of the colours you used, beautiful. ❤xo
Thank you Lucy! I just received my copy of Small Victories and I must admit I am a bit intimidated to get started. But this video has inspired me to tackle these castles and hopefully create something truly cute. Yours came out so adorable! ❤
I’ve been watching you for months even long before I had subscribed. I love you as well as your art. You are a very special person. I too have fibromyalgia. I wanted to say I’m so happy you feel better and up to doing streams. I love your color choices for this page. Thank you for sharing. 😊
Just found your channel beautiful coloring I love all the tops
Welcome Virginia I hope you continue to enjoy our lovely community. Happy Christmas 🎄 💓
I’ve been stalking UA-cam waiting for a color along in this book, from you!!! Yay!!!
Fotos de no tener seco❤
Lucy this is gorgeous, love the combo of colors too. I like that way you did all the little leaves great idea.😍💖
Perfeito, amei.🎉
Thank you xxx
Congratulations Lucy on the good news of the new grand child.💗
Love colouring page and the way you have coloured it, beautiful. Thank you so much for this year's colouring video's, and your kindness. 💗
I'm so glad you did this color along in Small Victories. I haven't seen so many on UA-cam yet and it's delightful to be able to color along with you.
So happy for you Lucy. When we ask for help people generally want to do that. You deserve it.
Thank you my lovely friend xx
Just found your channel and love watching you colour and chat! I suffer from major anxiety as well so totally understand what you’re going through/feeling. I go back and forth from colouring and got back into it recently as I have had a lot of anxiety with my first time getting covid ever! Thanks for sharing!
So glad to hear you good news, a baby is always a blessing and the children at school we soon get used to your reduced hours because they will at least still be seeing you. I love watching your videos, you are calming and fun and you could never let us down.Just know that you are amazing and loved.
Oh Jeanette thank you so much 💓 💖 💗
I bloody love you Lucy, you are such an inspiration. Xx
Congrats on your new grandbaby! I love watching your channel. Very entertaining. You're also very talented and so helpful in the way you explain things and just go for it. Which is what I struggle with. The overthinking.
You mentioned that you weren't sure about much info with the Gelly Roll pens. In case someone else hasn't said anything, yes you can buy them in packs. They come in all sorts of different packs. With so many different colors. Amazon, Michael's, Hobby Lobby, any arts and crafts store should have them. Utrecht, Dick Blick sells them individually as well as Michael's. Not sure if those stores are overseas where you are. But they have online stores with great selections. The way to tell your colors apart is there's a number above the barcode, next to the name of the set which also has a number on which set you can find them in. For example: Gelly Roll Moonlight 06 XPGBO6#425. Moonlight is the set 06 which pack of pens in that set and #425 is the specific color of the pen. I hope I explained that correctly and easy to understand. Take a look at your different pens and you'll see the difference in the numbers. Remember it's the number above the barcode. Not sure if the numbers below the barcode coincide with anything specific. But that should help you find all the different and wonderful gel pens. They're definitely some of my favorite gel pens. They also have a lot of white gel pen sets to color on black paper and so forth.
Thanks for your uploads!
Hi Lucy beautiful colouring in I’m loving 🥰 this new book it’s just beautiful ❤❤❤😊😊😊😊xxx
Me too Kylie xx
Thanks!
Thank you Eileen much Lyda ❤
Oh Lucy I hate that your nerves are not good. It’s a terrible feeling, I’ve been there. I’m so thankful for you having such a wonderful place to work and sounds like some really caring people as well. Those are few and far between. Sounds like you mean an awful lot to many people. Praying for settled nerves.
Bless you thanks so much 💖
Wonderful colour with me, Lucy! Really loved the way you did the foliage with the acrylic markers. So glad to hear you were able to get less hours at work and still able to see your lovely wee children, I bet they're so happy! Your health is always most important, so I'm so grateful that you're able to share with us too! Sending lots of love your way x
Thank you Gail I am very happy to be able to keep working. I hope you are well sweetheart 💕
Wow, it was super super interesting to watch you work out the color combinations! Also I’m so happy that good things are happening in your life and that you can take them in and feel better. You’re a special person and very well loved. ❤
Thank you so much Susan 💓
What a beautiful little castle, I love it
Congrats on being a gran-nanny again:) 💕
And btw you color beautifully 💕💕
I don’t appreciate the rainbow so I will paint it out with gouache. Lucy, you are much loved by the coloring community. Never doubt yourself. You’re the man (woman).
Thanks Carole 💕
The Lavender and Lilac were replaced with Amethyst and Orchid. Sometimes you can find a few of the old one's open stock. Gelly Roll has a pack of pastel colors that are flat. I love the red carpet the trees and shrubs turned out great.
Thank you so much 💓
Wonderful news about your job Lucy that should really help you out. Also great news about your new baby maybe you will show us the knitted bits I’d love to see them.
Of course I'd love to share them xx
Wow! I absolutely love how you did these castles! Bravo!!!
Thanks Gemma 💕
Nicely done Lucy. Love the color choices!❤
Glad you're better, an congrats!!
I just finished this colour along with you, Luci, and thoroughly enjoyed it. ❤xo

Thanks Corbinz 💕
I’m so happy for you Lucy! Yay!
Hi Lucy beautiful picture. Really love those colours and leaves are great.😊 Congratulations on on the coming of a another grandchild very exciting.happy for you about your work too.❤️
Thanks so much Cindy! 😊
😊🤗
I am so happy for you. I am a Grade 1 teacher and also know the struggle of Anxiety. The love I receive from my little ones makes it all worth will. It would br wonderful if you could have time to make more videos. After school there is nothing better than a nice cup of tea, a beautiful colouring book and a Lucy visit. Stay strong dear Lucy❤❤❤
Thank you my lovely 😍
So lovely to watch this page come to life. Thank you for sharing, and hope it eases your anxiety as you helped with mine. X
Bless you thanks Janette 😊
Sorry my phone keeps kicking me off UA-cam videos and this is my new phone I don't know what wrong with it and it won't even let me update it too😢 they are very beautiful don't ever feel sad if you think it looks like a mistake I think it would be beautiful different kind of castle 😊
Lovely news Lucy so exciting that you are going to be a Nana again. Loved the video and the page looks beautiful. I will follow and colour along in my book shortly love from Oz Chris 🇦🇺❤️
Thank you Chris xx
Wonderful Lucy. Congratulations on your new grand. So happy for all of you! And, I am especially happy your job situation. I'm hopeful the change will take some pressure of you! Sending love across the miles!but
Thank you Libby ❤
I’m like you about animal cruelty, if I see it on here or anywhere I can’t sleep, I cry it makes me so angry and sad. I have to think of something else. I have been on the fence about getting this book only because I have so many of her books that I still have to color in. Thank you for doing this video, I am going to get it and do this color along with you. I love what you did on the first one with the leaves, beautiful! You’re right about just stepping away for a bit. Sometimes I get so frustrated I ruin the picture if I continue when I’m feeling that way. ❤️
Congratulations on your good news!! I think it is wonderful that your going to be a Nanna again and so much more, my dear, Lucy. You never know but this little one might be born on your birthday as she or he is due in May.
Thanks Alisa. I hope you are doing well 💗
Wasn’t loving the leaves to start with but my Lucy doesn’t it look good I must remember that one and give it a go. Thanks for sharing that one.😀
You’re welcome Eileen ❤
lovely as always 😊
Thanks Emma 💕
The lavender and lilac are the ones that are discontinued colors in the Prismas. But the ones they replaced them with are almost exactly the same colors, you can barely tell the difference.
I'm glad to hear that I love those colours 😍
I have this book too.Loving how your page is turning out lucy 🙂💜
Thanks Nikki 💕
Suggestion: have your book spiral-bound! It makes things SOOOO much easier! Office supply stores usually have a service to do this for a few dollars!
I have done some that have fallen apart or impossible to get into the spine. Thanks for the suggestion. Happy Christmas 🎄 💓
Congratulations Lucy. Exciting news on the new grand baby!! My son and his wife are having their second boy in May also! I love this picture. Thanks for sharing. ❤
It's so exciting courbry I can't wait 😍
Hi Lucy! Congratulations on Your 2nd Grandchild! I have 6 Grandchildren, 4 Girls and 2 Boys. This Picture is Absolutely Beautiful, I love the way You Colored the Greenery, it looks so full and Lush! Also, it's Great that you're able to work less, but the children can still benefit from You being there for them! 🤗💜X
Thank you Sherry I'm looking forward to life feeling more balanced and not feeling so tired all the time ❤
That's Wonderful Lucy! I have never had anything that has made Me feel that way, I have had Open Heart Surgery. And a Triple Fracture of my lower Spine. So I do know pain. I know You will do better physically. Have a Wonderfully Colorful Day 💜 x
I feel the same exact way about animal cruelty! It breaks my heart into a million pieces and I get equally sad and angry about it all at the same time! I am the type to speak up if necessary. I try to mind my own business but at the same time, my conscience won't let me ignore it if I can do something about it. I can't stand when people want to abuse those weaker than them and cannot stand up for themselves, that's being a bully! So I cannot tolerate the abuse of animals, children, or the elderly. I totally agree with you Lucy!
You did well as usual Lucy Lou (I like it when you call yourself that). I had severe anxiety myself last year. Still have a bit left (they are a bit tough stuff, aren't they?), but I have my cheery daily life, that's all that matters!. So, I feel you, hanging there Lucy Lou! You got it!! Your works are the most exquisite things I have ever seen. Keep going, dear Lucy!
Thank you so much! You too 💕
Wow Lucy I’m so happy for you. Congratulations to you on all the good news that you’ve gotten. Children are such a gift and you are such a wonderful caring Nana. That’s just excellent news. And I’m so happy for you that your employer is going to be able to work with you to give you a more manageable work day. I know you have really been struggling lately so I’m truly happy for you that this is all going to be happening for you. I’m also happy for us because I was honestly worried that something was going to have to give and I was really afraid that it was going to be the channel that you were going to have to give up but now it sounds like maybe you will be able to keep the channel without it being a detriment to your health and happiness. I so so hope that this will be the change that you were so desperately needing. Thank you for sharing the page in Johanna’s new book it looks just lovely. Have a wonderful day. 😊
Thank you Heather. I love the channel. I promise it would be the last thing to go. I will always be here 💕
@@lucyjustaddscolour-adultco3135 I’m so glad. I enjoy your videos more than you could ever know and I’ve probably learned the most from you about coloring than from any other channel. You are just so explanatory and so willing to share I just appreciate it so much. Thank you Lucy.
@@heathers_colorpalooza8789 oh bless you. You are so welcome 💕
Awww congratulations Lucy that’s wonderful news, there’s just something about a new baby isn’t there 😊 i’m sure your grandson will love a little cousin to play with ☺️ i’m so glad for you re the hours at work, anxiety, fibro and other chronic illness can be debilitating with exhaustion, you obviously are great at your job for them to accommodate you in such a way. they didn’t want you to lose you 😊 good week it sounds like 😄 love you and your channel Lucy, you are my favourite (did i say that?! 🤫) ❤
🤣 thanks Emma and yes you did it now 🤣💕💖
Yo aún no tengo la pericia para colorear sin tener una referencia, por eso cada pagina que coloreas es una meta para mi. Y trato de hacerlo igual tonos de colores similares, marcas diferentes como norma, prismacolor y faber castle.
Keep going my lovely that's how I learn by watching others 💕
Shoot that was my first page I colored. I’ll watch and enjoy.
Lucy , I AGREE about the cruelty thing. It affects me deeply to my core. I don’t understand how Facebook allows to share the cruelty videos but yet, if you say one little word out of the way, that might offend a particular group, they put you in Facebook jail! Like you, I go on Facebook only to check out my coloring and photography groups. I’ll take animals over people any day.
‘ The More People I Meet … The More I Love My Pets ‘ !!! ❤
Couldn't agree more xxx
If you have Evazar London pencils they work great on Small Victories.
they're very nice indeed!
Hello. Congrats on such exciting news. Also wonderful news regarding your job. I am with you regarding animal crudity. Cannot stand it 😡. Lovely coloring as always 💖🐞🇨🇦
Hi my lovely friend. I hope you are well 💕
Lucy, a great, very helpful book for me was , ‘Panic To Power’ by Lucinda Bassett. Please give it a try. ❤
Thank you Laureen I will look into it 💕
Nice work. Love your choice of colours. Are you referring to RJ Hampson. What new book? I’d it serendipity I think. Maybe not.
Yes that's the one Elizabeth xx
Aww. Normal rainbow 🌈 is (top down) red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, purple.....it would have gone well the Castle colors, .......but it *is* your picture
I have since changed it as I wasn't happy with it. It looks much better now x
HI lucy. Don't know if you have found nay gel pens that are just plain colours no glitter neon etc. the shuttle arts set of 20 retractable gel pens have a nice spectrum for less than a £/pen. hope this helps.
Thank you so much Rebecca 💓
HWLCI? seeing how you bring things to life with certain colors, shading & highlights is so helpful to a beginner like me! I just ask myself- How would Lucy color it? Thank u.
That's so kind thank you 😊
I watched an Old vidio of shel’s she uses white ink to cover line work what she doesn’t want in her picture. So you could cover the flowers on the dogs then straight colour them over the top. Bet that doesn’t make any sense. X
It does yes. Thank you xx
Gostaria de ver concluído ❤
It will be on my playlist xxxx
Can anybody tell me if indanthrone blue is discontinued, as I can’t find it in open stock? I really look forward to your videos Lucy, never apologize, you’re delightful!
Thank you Betty that's lovely 😍
Am new to this channel. How you decided where to pit the dark color 1st and how much to cover?
Lovely little images. Congrats on Nanna 2! Is that the newly weds? They were quick out of the blocks. Also congratulations on keeping the job but more on your terms. That should be good for your confidence, knowing they didn't want to loose you.
The lighting situation is complex. Painting the wall white and having the desk white could easily make it worse. Did you say that you had bought a ring light recently and that's what's blinding you? If so, it seems to be a very cold natural daylight colour but the camera is not able to cope with it. More cold white will make it worse.
You should not be blinding yourself, especially as when you blind yourself the lighting we see is really dull because the camera is being blinded too. Some shadow is inevitable when using the hands. A bit of shadow is better for us with good colour match than no shadow but lots of colour change because of the light tone. I don't know what camera you use. But is there a setting in the photo/film app thingy that allows you to set the white balance. Because if you can set the white balance it will fix the dullness away and give us better colour matches. Are you using a smart phone to record on or something else? What brand? I will see if I can find out about the white balance for you.
Aww Sue thank you so much! I'm using a basic Sony camcorder and a new led strip light that I can adjusted the brightness on and the tone from white to warm xxxx
@@lucyjustaddscolour-adultco3135 Here is something I found about adjusting the white balance on the Sony Camcorder. If you set the led light to midway between white and warm and then try this adjustment you might be able to restore the white of the page for the video. By setting the light to bright white the camera can't cope with the blue light and compensates but it does that by making things darker. So you are blinding yourself yet your video seems darker to us than before you had the new light.
Another thing to try is to point the new light away from you and the page, so up at the ceiling or wall. Light will bounce back onto the book and be less harsh and you won't get blinded either. A combo of all of them should really help and make things more comfortable for you.
@@suewilkinson910 thank you so much Sue for taking the time to do that for me xxx
What are the pencils you use called and what set is it? Thinking of buying some
Hi Hannah I actually can't remember 😅 but I will usually say at the beginning of the video xx
I adore you and the time that we spend together. I feel like I am sitting there with you having a chat. Do you have an email address where I can reach you?
Hi Rusty my email is lucyjustaddscolour@gmail.com xxx
What is your facebook group please i would love to join 😊
Thanks!
Thank you so much Susan 💓
