The Trouble with Terriers

 


Coloring with Copic Markers: Bringing a Whimsical Pup to Life

Today, I had so much fun coloring this adorable little pup tangled up in yarn! With those big shiny eyes, fluffy fur, and all that colorful wool, this piece was the perfect opportunity to play with vibrant shades and soft blending using my Copic markers.

Starting with the Fur

For the fur, I began by layering warm browns—starting light and gradually deepening the tones to create softness and texture. The trick with Copic markers is to keep your layers wet so the colors blend seamlessly. Small, quick strokes mimic the direction of fur and give a more natural look.

Adding Those Big Eyes

The eyes are where the personality shines! I layered cool grays and deep blues to create depth, leaving tiny white highlights for that sweet, glossy effect. A white gel pen adds that final sparkle.

Playing with Yarn Colors

This part was pure joy! I used bright, playful hues to create a whimsical palette that pops against the neutral fur. Each ball of yarn has its own tone and texture, so I varied the shading to keep them distinct.

The Finishing Touches

A soft gray shadow under the pup helps ground the image and gives it that three-dimensional feel. I love how the tangled threads and knitting needles add to the charm—it’s like this little one got caught in a creative mess!

Why I Love Copic Coloring

Copic markers make it easy to achieve smooth blends and rich layers. They’re alcohol-based, so colors can be built up gradually without streaking. The range of shades means you can always find the perfect tone for fur, fabric, or fantasy details.

Red Hat, Blue Eyes


 

Red Hat, Blue Eyes: A Story in Colour

There’s something magical about the way a painting can hold a whole world inside it. In this piece, a girl with luminous blue eyes gazes forward as if she’s caught mid-thought—half curious, half whimsical. Her bold red hat tilts playfully to one side, adorned with a bright blue flower that adds a touch of softness to her confident silhouette.

The vibrant teal background, textured with layers of expressive brushstrokes and scattered white numbers, creates a sense of mystery—almost like she’s standing in a coded dreamscape. Her patterned dress, sweet red lips, and serene expression come together in a way that feels both modern and gently nostalgic.

I love how this artwork captures a moment that feels suspended in time. She’s a little quirky, a little bold, and unmistakably full of quiet personality—much like the spirit behind Paula Maree Arts.

Art doesn’t need to shout to be memorable. Sometimes, all it takes is a girl in a red hat to make us pause, smile, and wonder about the stories she’s keeping to herself.
