Large, intricate colouring pages are satisfying and often worthwhile, but sometimes you just need a quick fix. Today we are scratching that itch with a greyscale owl from the jaw-dropping 'Intricate Ink: Animals in Detail' by Time Jeffs (one of my favourite artists). We take a look at using the Black Widow range of coloured pencils to make a horned owl come to life in no time at all!

Hi Gem! Thank you so much for creating this wonderful coloring video of the Great Horned Owl from my coloring book "Intricate Ink Animals in Detail Volume 1" You do amazing work and it's an honor to have you share you inspiring grayscale colorings with everyone. Grayscale is so easy to do once people give it a try, and it's nice to see you inspiring others to do it. My motto is "Once you start coloring grayscale, you won't be able to stop!" I'm looking forward to watching many more creative and beautiful coloring on your channel!

@TheColourCave 3 года назад

Hello Tim, and welcome to the Cave! Overjoyed to have you saunter in and leave a comment - we'll convert all of our colourists to grayscale eventually 😉

This is a wonderful video and colouring of the Great Horned Owl from Intricate Ink and love watching it! Thanks so much for joining Tim Jeffs colouring group too!!

I LOVE my black widows! So much that after trying them, I ordered them all. AND they have a new set coming out! I love that book as well! What an amazing artist, Thank you Gem, great video as always! And hitting the like button is the first thing I do after clicking the video so I never forget! Hugs from NS 💖

He's stunning! I'm not a big colourist but I LOVE this book and need to get it!

@blackrose538 4 года назад

He is absolutely gorgeous! Love the colours on this owl :) and... I actually pick my colouring books the same way. If I like the pictures inside I can always imagine myself colouring them and so I get the book. I also own a couple of colouring magazines because they have really beautiful images inside. Sadly I know I can't get them all, because I'd be drowing in stuff to colour and I'll never actually colour all of it in, haha! But... I think I'll get out my trusted Polychromos and start something today, too. I just feel like it. Also very interested in getting the Black Widow pencils myself... but I have so much art stuff already! xD I drew a Bald Eagle for my ScrawlrChallenge and I find they look just as angry as owls! I think that look is a bird thing :)

And oh I love using Staedtler Triplus Fineliners and the Tombow Dualtip watercolour pens in Tim Jeff’s books. ❤️🎨❤️

Lovely truly lovely! I seem to be reminded every time you start a new coloring page of my cousins, they would visit in the summertime down from Oregon and they brought very fancy books and crayons and color pencils, botanical drawings and fantasy drawings that I know their mom got them from the “art shops” she frequented. I usually just had crayola and superhero coloring books. The quality of their pictures were so far above my pages! I will say my jealousy fueled my artistic drive and I worked so much more to try to make my pictures better! You are truly a wonderful artist and talented person. Thank you for sharing your art journey with us.

@MayBrox 3 года назад

Love your "huhuuuu". I do love Tim Jeffs books. And its more because of the art, then the need to color every page. I'm just stunned by the details and the art really. I'v also used them for watercoloring and as refrence's for my own drawings. (Or attempt on drawings) For me, I think Black Widow pencils are good allround pencils. They seam to work on most papers. :D

@vmblack68 4 года назад

I just found your profile and I’m so intrigued! I love Tim Jeff’s artistry and just got the latest 48 collection of Black Widow pencils to complete my set. And to ramble on, I always always start with the eyes on every picture, and if it’s just floral I start with the yellow centres and then working into the flowers. Just going to enjoy your artistry and thankful I found you! ❤️🎨❤️

@TheColourCave 4 года назад

Welcome! There are well over 300 videos on the channel now, although not all colouring-related, but hopefully you will find some of them helpful and fun. Thanks for stopping by to comment 😊

@MusingsFromTheDen 4 года назад

That's gorgeous. I'm so 'type A' I'd colour in every individual white space, though. 😂

@Mirrigold 4 года назад

Big fan of Black Widow pencils, especially the skin tone sets, can't wait to get my hands on the new Monarch set when it comes out later this month, looks like it has some gorgeous pastels in it. Fab colouring as ever, not a book I'd have looked at before but I might now be tempted as I loved the quick peek through as you found the owl! Also yes to the pencil case storage! Mine are also still in set order not colour order 😁 Also, like you, I have to like the artwork to want to colour it in. One of the reasons why I like the Colouring Heaven magazine is that it's introducing me to loads of new artists that I might not have picked up before.

@andie.c.762 3 года назад

Loving the owl, beautifully done. Thank you for introducing me to Tim's wonderful work too Gem. I have gotten into greyscale more and more since I coloured in some drawings of Emmanuelle Colin and just bought some works by Anastasia Elly Koldareva. You can put your heart and soul into a greyscale drawing and get such stunning results. I must admit, I agree it's more about the art work than the fact you can just colour in a page in a book. Been a artist all my life, but due to illness, I don't have the stammering to do 10+ hour stints anymore, like I used to do LOL. I would like to try inktense on the greyscale drawings, just got into inktense and LOVING THEM. Going to go look at more videos :) Thanks Gem xXx

Good Morning Gem, my husband and I have watched your latest video 📹 of you colouring the wise old owl and we loved the colours you used, the owl looked very life like, Thank you Gem for another fantastic video From Kate in the south East of England x

I have this book ordered. Owls r my fav so thank you for doing this. Won me over.

@lindseywarren44 4 года назад

Wonderful! Thank you! I've not ever tried grey scale. I don't know why, but it intimidates me a wee bit. I enjoyed watching you do it tho! Blessings xo

@ranamcmahon7653 4 года назад

🦉🦉🦉 I pick coloring books the same way. Always lead by my heart! This book is now on my shopping list. Beautiful! Have all those pencils in my cart on Amazon. Plus about $ 1000 dollars worth of other art supplies. My husband is starting to give me the hairy eyeball. Since February I've probably spent about a thousand bucks. Jeeeeez!

@TheColourCave 4 года назад

That's a lot of cash. Tell your husband it's cheaper than therapy 😉

@sassycat378 4 года назад

I just bought my first polychromos pencils because of your influence. Buying the red backs would have been potentially cheaper as they are an Australian brand but I decided against them as they are only readily available on Amazon, which was disappointing. So the polychromos and Derwent Artists will be used with my watercolours and inks. Cheers

@EmilyArts 4 года назад

Wow! This turned out owlmazing haha okay I’ll stop now 😅 these coloured pencils look like they’d be super fun to use. Another awesome video gem 💕☺️

@purplepaisleypassion 2 года назад

Stumbled upon your video when searching for coloring videos using Black Widows, as they're my favorite pencil. 5 minutes into watching you color, and I was hooked. I hit that subscribe button, and will watch others on your channel eagerly! Just lovely work!

@TheColourCave 2 года назад

Yay! Thank you and a warm welcome to the Cave!

@s.e.hebert7307 3 года назад

So realistic! It seems like the owl's head is turned about 160 degrees around, so her belly is on the left

@amybaker5241 4 года назад

Love it, I have one of his books on my wish list, where I’ve been sooo tired and stagnant lately with my fibromyalgia I’m putting off buying more until I get some more pictures done or at least one in each book I own before I allow myself to buy more books lol

@eileenduckett3012 4 года назад

This is beautiful Gem my take on the picture is the bit to the right side is his tummy , it’s hard to tell.but it doesn’t really matter does it your so cleaver he is such a handsome boy.

@pooshkahnla6074 4 года назад

I was thinking he was looking over his shoulder too. You're converting me to trying greyscale colouring as well...I've always avoided it but you're right - you get a great result! And the tip about the brush...cool! I also choose colouring books that I like to look at - I've been given a couple by a friend which I've found it hard to get going with, and that may be because I didn't choose them. I think I'll use them as experiments for learning techniques, and then it doesn't matter as much if I mess them up...

@JustNatasha93 4 года назад

I always love all your videos. This coloring was great. I would be interested to see you color an image from the book with markers.

@theresavaughn5864 4 года назад

Beautiful! I am very new and bought my first coloring book which I now know is grayscale. I was wondering how to do it. Thank you, learned a lot!

@TheColourCave 4 года назад

Yay! Glad it was helpful - I do have a few videos colouring greyscale, this one might be helpful too, as I do more explaining in it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DzZlFVcxO6k.html

@eileenduckett3012 4 года назад

Think iv changed my mind when you flipped the pages I think now your right and I’m wrong.x

New subbie here. I absolutely love these books. I have volumes 1, 2 & 3. Can't seem to get volume 4 in the UK anymore.

@TheColourCave 4 года назад

A warm welcome! I may treat myself to another volume if I finish the first. A lot of books seem to be out of stock at the moment. Hopefully it will become available again soon. Have you got volume 5?

@gagatoots807 4 года назад

@@TheColourCave oh my gosh I didn't know hes done a fifth one. I'll have to check it out. I haven't actually coloured any of these pictures in yet. I'm abit nervous, I've never done a grey scale picture before. That's why I'm so happy I found you

@TheColourCave 4 года назад

Go for it, it's some of the easiest and most pleasurable colouring you can have!

@patriciamoore7414 4 года назад

So regal! Owls are amazing...no unnecessary movement, piercing eyes, and beauty. What's not to love? What was the story behind the tractor fire? Did you find the worker okay?

@TheColourCave 4 года назад

We did, I actually forgot to update you all.. I'll post about it on the community tab I think! All is okay!

@KitarraChaosWeaver 4 года назад

Hard to believe how quickly that came together. I think that if you draw back from the owl that it's sitting right wing forward and that part at the right is his breast. But that doesn't quite work either. Still turned out lovely. BTW you didn't tell us about the shed fire result! Is everything OK?

@TheColourCave 4 года назад

I still can't figure out which way he's facing.... he looks ok though! The fire... yes, the machinery that caught is an insurance write off, there's nothing left of it - no other problems - the shed is fine and said employee is unscathed, just a little rattled. The fire service were awesome.

@sundancesladytiffany3995 4 года назад

He is beautiful! I have a non-related question for you. In the comments on one of your videos you talked about all the animals that have a 4 chamber stomach, don’t deer have a 4 chamber stomach as well? Just curious, thanks.....😊

@TheColourCave 4 года назад

Deer do indeed. There are plenty of animals that have the same digestive tract, I just didn't list them all I don't think (I only vaguely remember that conversation!)

@sundancesladytiffany3995 4 года назад

The Colour Cave gotcha, thanks.....

@kendraiacouzze4930 4 года назад

He is magnificent💕 Does anyone else kinda lose their "arting" mojo? And if so how does it come back? It's making me more depressed that I can't color beautiful pages. Sigh!

@sundancesladytiffany3995 4 года назад

Kendra Iacouzze I have the same problem right now, I wish I knew how to get it back.....😔

@mjpete27 4 года назад

You just have to start a new picture! You might not like it nor the end result but eventually you begin to enjoy creating again! So, Go Do!

@gagatoots807 4 года назад

I'm having the same problem too. Been like it for 4 months now

@vmblack68 4 года назад

I lose it too, and I’ve learnt not to force myself as it just gets my anxieties up. So, I just take it in stride, spend my time either just binge watching a tv show or playing on the iPad with the pigment app and Apple Pencil to try and just keep my brain in the “colour world”. And sometimes even just flipping through Pinterest or Instagram sometimes something will catch my eye and give me inspiration. Just go with the flow and your artistic mind will bring you back when it’s ready. 🥰🎨🥰
