Colors in my hand: Colors I Keep, Creations I Dream, by: Diona, Rhiella

Collecting art supplies has always been one of my little joys. Whenever I go into a bookstore or art supplies store, I have the thrill of entering a treasure chest of happiness that stretches on forever. I find myself selecting coloring books with designs that I find interesting, no matter how simple the patterns are, or will eventually lead to a portrait. My selection of coloring books included trying to get a selection of coloring tools — colored pencils, markers and occasionally gel pens, for me they all have a different texture and feel when working. The materials themselves are not as important to me as the idea that each page I have colored, the colored page will sum up how I feel and express my creativity.
