Make it your own: How to Color Your Page
These photographs are inspiration, not an answer key. Follow the original colors, try a new palette, or imagine a different season. A turquoise lake can become purple; a sunrise can become a starry night. Your page doesn’t need to look like my photo to be beautiful.
Start with one part of the scene that catches your eye: the sky, the water, or a few sweeping bands of sandstone. Build from there at your own pace. You don’t need to be an artist or have visited these places to enjoy the journey.
When you’re done, share your finished page on Instagram and tag @followtiffsjourney so I can see your version. I’d love to see where your colors take you!
A few quick answers
Do I need to use the colors in the photographs?
Not at all. Use the photos as a starting point, or choose whatever colors you enjoy. There is no right way to color your journey.
Why do the drawings have fewer details than the photos?
The line art simplifies small textures and details to leave you comfortable spaces to color. The photographs can help you distinguish rock, water, snow, trees, and sky when you want a little guidance.
Can I read more about these places?
Yes! Where I have a related blog post, the photograph and the guide link below it take you to that story. Some links cover the wider park or region. A few places don’t have a guide yet, and one camping spot is intentionally left unnamed.
Do I need to scan the QR code every time?
You can bookmark this page or type www.followtiffsjourney.com/coloring-book into your browser whenever you want to return to the reference photos.
Is this book only for experienced colorists or hikers?
No. It’s for anyone who enjoys landscapes, travel, and a little creative time, whether you’re an experienced colorist, a curious teen, or simply dreaming about your next adventure.
