After finishing a coloring page, I don’t always want to leave it sitting in the coloring book. When I have a coloring page that inspires me, I challenge myself to incorporate that page in a larger design for wall art. I started with this cat design that was done with colored pencils.

For this design I chose to incorporate the intricate cat coloring page in with a medium sized canvas that I purchased from Michaels Craft Store.  I used acrylic paint to coat the background in a pastel pink color and mixed a light purple color for the “walkway” that the cat cut out stood on. Now I have a wall art piece that I can be proud to hang in my guest room. Get creative with your coloring pages and share your tips with me!
