le with so hopefully we might help you with it this week yes we re making it hard for the team but easy for you haha the winner of the challenge is chosen at random from random org and will win some gorgeous graph it goodies to play with you don t have to use graph it markers to enter we accept any form of colouring it s up to you you have until 3rd october to enter you can see the winners of our last challenge at the bottom of this post cara for this challenge i decided to have my light source coming from the top right i generally have my light source coming from this direction a tip i once learned is to stand an object maybe a glue pot or something next to your image and pretend it is your light source it works for me anyways lol i ve used the super cute dollie daydream birthday digi stamp from polkadoodles graphit s used skin 3120 4155 4150 4115 4135 cheeks hair 3290 3255 3250 3245 3210 jeans cool greys 9100 9108 top 2140 2120 2110 2105 green 7290 7270 7250 shadows cool grey 9100 9102 9103 lizzy so i got a little over zealous with my project for the light source theme this week i found this image from the paper shelter and thought it would be great for having two sources of light well it is great but it was a little more difficult than i had anticipated haha so i have the glowing bottle of dragons blood from the left and then her book of spells a little lower on the right this was my first attempt with a glowing object and i think i will try it again it was fun to play with i used my lightest yellow shade a bit on her hair shoulder and hands trying to make the glow on her as well i wanted her book to look aged as well as glowing so i over saturated the paper to get the effect here is my list of graph it marker color combinations used skin 4120 4125 4155 4180 4135 4175 5140 hair 1210 2105 3110 3170 3180 purple 6110 6120 6140 6175 green 8110 8240 8260 8270 orange 2105 2110 2150 2180 cauldron 9405 9404 9403 9402 9401 black 9909 9509 9506 9505 9504 book 1110 1140 1150 1270 1250 janet i think my image has an obvious light source the lamp which casts it s light down the centre of the characters this is an image from polkadoodles called hollybobs choir the main graph it marker colours i have used are lamp 4110 1180 1250 2105 1110 9100 9102 her 5240 5215 4135 9534 3230 1150 him 7180 7125 7105 9100 9101 skin 4170 4155 4115 4125 7125 4135 wendy i chose this digi image called emily party from polkadoodles as it s perfect for the light source challenge i enjoyed colouring her and hope i ve managed to interpret the light coming from the candle correctly i ve used so many different colours for this that i got totally confused when i was listing them as i had put some away before writing them down so sorry i will do better next time kevin i have gone for the light source coming from the left side of the image if you are not sure how to work out your light source stand a book at the side of your image to create some shade and then colour your image graph it markers used skin 4110 4135 4145 4170 hair 1210 1250 1270 4110 dress boots 7260 7270 7290 bags 8110 8130 2105 1115 5115 5110 7125 7130 fabulous colouring and some fantastic light

wk 38 pink light direction graph it colouring challenge welcome back to another fabulous graph it colouring challenge our challenge for you dearest readers is pink but this week we asked the design team to inspire you with lots of techniques for light direction it s a thing lots of people seem to struggle with so hopefully we might help you with it this week yes we re making it hard for the team but easy for you haha the winner of the challenge is chosen at random from random org and will win some gorgeous graph it goodies to play with you don t have to use graph it markers to enter we accept any form of colouring it s up to you the winner of our last challenge will be announced next week let s see what the team have made for us nikky i love thinking about where the light direction is coming from when i colour and i always try to do it from different angles if i can rather than just straight ahead because it can really change the way your image looks considerably just have a play around you ll be surprised at the results another great trick is if you make a little booboo by using the wrong colour on your image or you just don t like what you did pick up your greys or some yellow tones and add shadows or light over the top and it will transform your image it then becomes about the light and shade rather than the actual colours you ve used so it s a great way to save an images otherwise destined for the trash i haven t made a card for you but i wanted to show you this great little technique for helping where you need to add light and shade take your image and either stamp or print it twice then mark up one with a pencil as shown this is a failsafe way of mapping out your light areas before you start and you can keep this in a journal for future reference i coloured onto watercolour card with this image it certainly makes you think about your shading and it takes longer to see the final results so you kinda have to wait a little or you ll overdo things i used face 4125 4150 3210 4145 4135 this photo makes the skin look much yellower than it is in real life i think at some point i might have coloured the whole face with 4115 instead of 4125 without realising i d picked up the wrong marker but i don t mind as it just adds to the overall tone of the light source also the watercolour paper has a cream tone to it and that did affect the underlying skintone when i laid the first colour down it was quite noticable as i personally don t like the warmer tones hair 3210 3245 3250 3280 3290 clothing 4150 3210 9400 9401 background shadows 3210 9400 9401 penni i chose to have my light source directed straight from the front here s my card graph it markers used jeans 7105 7110 7115 7119 after colouring the jeans i used some scrap denim sprayed with some mix it fluid and dabbed firmly to give a textured appearance i then coloured the rest of the image skin 4120 4125 4155 4170 4135 cheeks lips hair 2105 2110 2130 blouse 8110 8120 9201 scarf 5115 5120 yvonne hi everyone well this challenge was really hard for me a specific light source made me want to hide i interpreted the challenge theme as the item giving light and how it fell on the image eventually i found an image with a light bulb i know it s not the best idea but i ploughed ahead anyway i hope you can see where the light falls markers used are as follows skin 4120 4155 4150

hello everyone friday again the weeks certainly are flying by time for a brand new challenge to start today and we thought we d go back to one of our favourites and something we all struggle with i think amazing hair yep it sure can be hard to get the hairtones right sometimes although if you follow the graph it colour chart it s pretty easy but we all struggle to come up with different combinations week in week out so we thought we d try and give you some ideas this week you have until fri 19th sept at noon gmt to enter the challenge and you can use any colouring medium to enter just please follow our rules over in the sidebar our random winner will receive a set of markers to try and the design team will choose our fave top 3 for design and technique we have a new team member to introduce to you today the lovely lizzy smith has joined us with her graph it markers and she is loving them she says she s going to ditch her other brand wow that s some testament huh we all adore lizzy s colouring she is truly talented at the colouring malarky if you haven t yet tried graph it and are wondering what the points of difference are basically 168 colours and growing new trend colours each year mean you can stay on top of art and fashion trends vibrant rich colours easy blending great colour chart we ve started the range with all the steadfast basics you need and are adding to those to help you build your collections colours which are not available in any other marker unique fantastic blender which actually does blend not just blur our blender is highly recommended by the uk pencil society for using as a pencil blender with brands like prisma pencils to replace sansador easy to follow colour blending system follow the number groups and it s easy a broad chisel tip and a bullet nib as standard interchangeable and replacable nibs including an awesome brush nib which can replace your chisel if you wish 20 more ink than most other brands amazing value for money you re getting a premium quality marker for around half the price of it s biggest competitor and 20 more ink for this reason they re not refillable because economically they would then have to cost a lot more money ergonomic designed barrel meaning your hands don t tire so much this feature has already been copied by other marker brands but the composition of materials used for the
