Creating an adult coloring page is the byproduct of creating art that you enjoy. I love pen and ink, but I prefer to start with pencil most of the time.
Once the image is drawn, I go back and fix anything I didn't like through graphic editing software.
I have been working on a series for the Zodiac signs for my Patrons and here is Cancer post process.
One of the big challenges for artists who draw without a reference (and sometimes those who use one) is that we often draw on a flat surface looking down upon the piece. Some of us also turn the page slightly while we work. This can lead to a skewed perspective with faces where two eyes don't match or the face itself has a droopy look. That happened with this piece and had to be resolved. The way to solve this (for the most part) is to get a slanted box or table for drawing. I don't have one. The key to an even face is to look at your page head on and resolve the perspective.
