Coloring (or colouring) books are a great meditative, anti-depression and anti-anxiety activity. Check it out!


When life's a silent stretch of night

In fading shades of grey -

I take a world of black and white,

And turn it into day.

I made some coloring therapy for those of us trying to get through this administration

If you are looking for a creative way to cope with the current administration, I have the perfect coloring book for you! All the designs were hand drawn and created by me - zero AI and all human intelligence. You can download the designs and color them on your tablet or print them out for an IRL coloring experience. Happy coloring fam, and stay strong during these strange times!
