#AdultColoringChallenge: Monochrome

This site contains affiliate links, view the disclosure for more information.


Choose one color and use different shades, tints, and tones of that single color to complete your page. From pale pastels to deep shadows, see how much depth and creativity you can create with just one hue.

We’ve rounded up a few pages (below) that you can choose from this week, or feel free to use any coloring page you love.

You can use any medium or combination of media such as markers, pencils, gel pens, or watercolor, and blending tools are welcome. Just stick to one color family only. No black or white unless that is the monochrome family you choose.

Have fun exploring how much depth and creativity you can create with a single color! Don’t forget to follow ALL of the rules below!

Make sure to follow ALL the rules below!

  1. All posts must START with the hashtag “#AdultColoringChallenge” (if you put it at the end and It falls under the “see more,” we might not see it so it MUST be at the BEGINNING of your post!)
  2. You can use any of the free pages that I’ve rounded up or feel free to use one of your own. As usual, if you use one of the pages provided, you get an extra entry into the random drawing.
  3. All posts MUST credit the the book, artist or publisher (without linking)
  4. All coloring pages must be colored within the dates of this challenge, and not previously posted to Facebook or other challenges (WE WILL CHECK!)
  5. All colorings must contain ONLY ONE COLOR – you can use all the different shades of that color but you must stick with that color family.
  6. All posts/entries MUST include the media used.
  7. You MUST post on Sunday 3/22 noon to midnight EST USA. Do not post earlier or later – otherwise IT WON’T COUNT! You can use dateful.com to figure out time zone conversion.
