Each week I will provide a stencil to be coloured in with no restrictions on the medium used, with a chance to win 45% of this posts payout and the weeks' donations for 1st place.
To add a little twist and interaction within the community, there will be a featured colour each week, picked at random from entrant's choices. This colour must be used in some way in your interpretation (use as little or as much of the featured colour as you like).
The featured colour this week is Rainbow Palette
Below is a screen capture of the random picker's selection: (with example shades of the colour)
The contest will run week to week, to provide enough time for entrants to colour in the pattern. It's Zen for a reason!
This week's contest will run as follows:
Tuesday 31st, 18:00 CET - 'Week Starts' post
Tuesday 7th, 12:00 CET - 'Week Ending' post

This week the stencil is inspired by summer and heat, So I based this stencil on fire! Up here, on the southern mountains of Spain, the sun is blisteringly hot and it's a daily struggle to try and stay cool. What do you do to stay cold during these hot times?
Have fun, but most importantly have a relaxing zen-colouring sesh!
