3. Art Paper
Some people prefer to draw their own coloring pages and coloring them in herself. In this case, art paper would come in handy. Like the pencils, art paper comes in various qualities.
Before choosing the right paper, think about the type of coloring she prefers to do. Painting for example would require a thicker paper than pencil.

There are many websites out there dedicated to coloring and a printer allows her to print off as many pictures as she wants.
8. Paints
Once her creativity kicks in she might want to expand her horizons into other art forms such as painting. Paints will really make her day.
You can buy large paint sets, though it's recommended you have a good idea of what type of painting she might like to do or get her a variety and let her decide.

Hi Jennifer,
Ive been coloring since I was 15 and into my adulthood. Its funny how now its this big thing. I have probably 50-60 books, lots of gel pens,regular markers,sharpies and pencils. Its my hobby/obsession/addiction. Lol! I have chronic pain and 17 yrs ago I hurt my back at work so I took up coloring again. It helps my pain and to relax. Is this colorbook yours? Those are some cool pens.
Have a good weekend 🙂
