How God Designed His Own Coloring Book

Coloring, layout by Adobe SparkI’ll let you in on a secret about me. There’s no creative brushstrokes in my DNA—none. Even my stick figures look pitiful.

You won’t find the blood of an artist running through my veins. I’m not artistic by any stretch of the imagination.

But the art of coloring gives un-artsy people a way to add individual flare to a beautifully drawn picture.

Coloring Connoisseurs

My daughter, Megan, and I are fond of coloring. A fondness starting when we were both little girls. We colored together through her childhood, teen, and college days, and still do today.

Who says coloring is only for kids? This article makes me want to color right now.

Still, Megan and I consider ourselves coloring connoisseurs. We colored for recreation and mental therapy long before the rest of the world caught on to coloring books for all ages.

Proudly signing our name to completed pictures is a tradition. “By Mom” remained my standard signature until Megan married. Now I sign my actual name.

To later admire our handiwork as we flip through books during a new coloring session, we date each finished masterpiece with month/day/year. They bear who and when information.
