Hey Steemians!
We have just reached the 6 months mark, half way through 'Series 1'!
Thanks to all of you for helping make us reach this far!

A very special week 26 of #zencolouringcontest starts now!

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 Yellow

I love the tones and shades of yellow that you used, it creates a very golden and regal look. the shading within each section creates a lot of depth and dimension and the background pairs nicely with the whole design!

This is a really cool effect!

Thank you :)

I love the clever and original use of the featured colour, yellow, as the background. I makes the black section and darker shades stand out. I also like the subtle gradients within the outer shapes!

Thanks for entering in and supporting the #zencolouringcontest!

This is my entry ...Thank you @magiccleatus for this Zen and relaxing contest

My color suggestion for the next week is Peacock Color Palette
Green, Sky Blue, Purple and Gold...

I love the pattern created by the shades of yellow you used within the outer sections of the stencil. I also like how the darker shades inside the flower vines create a nice divide between the those outer sections. The background compliments the design very well!

Welcome to the #zencolouringcontest, thanks for entering!
