I'm a twenty year old chick from Wisconsin. I could sit here and ramble on about my life, but I'm not going to. I'll spare you the boring details. God knows we've seen one too many profiles with "OMG, I HAVE A BOYFRIEND. AND A DOG. GOD I LOVE THEM BOTH, I CANT CHOOSE WHO I LOVE MORE. IM SO COOL. I LOVE MY FRIENDS. SHOUTOUTS LYKE THX!"

So lets cut to the chase, I'm only here becuase a friend reffered me and I have a knack of giving advice. I'm very blunt and in no way am I going to paint some pretty picture and tell you things that you want to hear.

Have fun kids.

Odd question, but an opinion would be nice if you have one to offer.

I'm 18, my boyfriend near 20. He recently moved into his own apartment (instead of doing the whole roommate thing). He insists he needs artwork for his new place. I suggest we scan some art galleries and art shops for some nice pieces, but he says he REALLY wants me to color him a picture (using crayons and a coloring book). Perhaps it might sound a bit immature, but I truly don't see it that way. I just find it to be a thoughtful and innocent way of showing some affection. Can you place yourself in my shoes there and make sense of that??

Anyhow, so I'm doing what he wants. I have a coloring book and colored pencils. If this is any help... it's a squirrel (which takes up the entire page), and he's holding a large peanut. Now, my question is this: when coloring a coloring book with COLORED PENCILS, do you think it's best to GO OVER the lines to make them stand out more, or should I just color them as is, and not bring out the lines?

Sorry to be so random. It's just been so long since I've colored.. I might have forgotten 'how to', if that makes sense?

Any input would be greatly appreciated. (link)
I'd probably do it for my boyfriend. Taking a coloring book and some colored pencils is a lot cheaper than going out and buying art pieces.

Anyway.. as for the coloring? Ah. Personally I'd go over the lines making them darker and stand out more. I'm not really an artsy person so I can't offer much on the subject.
