The "Color Me Kish" Coloring Books are published!

Thank you everyone who contributed! They will be released after the 40th Ann. Celebration Next Week. Stay tuned....

Kish Coloring Book Collaboration update

Just a reminder, we are excited to combine the efforts of the artists here are Kishwaukee College to publish a collaborative coloring book. In order to make this happen, we will need images soon.

The deadline for submitting a contour-drawing for the coloring book is 2 weeks from now on April 3rd. As for what to draw, draw whatever you want. Abstract shapes, optical lines, a scene, a portrait, a subject, a cartoon...whatever satisfies your artistic soul, it will find an audience with someone.

Our idea is to give these books out for free so that many people will have a chance to enjoy your work. Just remember the image should have high contrast so it is suitable for coloring. Good mediums for that are sharpies, pen/brush and ink, etc. 8.5x11" is a good size to think about, but it can be larger or smaller. We can change the size on the computer to suit the needs of the book.

What we have so far, looks good. Please contribute your "Color Me Kish" picture for the book. Drop off your picture any time at my office, B-426. Leave your name and email so that I can get the picture back to you after scanning/photographing the image. Thanks!

A "Color Me Kish" Art Coloring Book?

Want to publish a Kish-made coloring book together. Subject matter to be determined by you, the artist. Express yourself while sharing what you do with your peers. Contour-esque/high contrast drawings would work well for a coloring book format.

If people are interested, they should submit their drawing(s) to either Carol-lynn or Miles so that we may scan/photograph the images and publish them in book format.

If we are to publish before the Kishwaukee College 40th Anniv, we need to get cracking! This leaves us about a month plus. Submit something you already have suitable for a coloring book (any age), or make something new. Use your imagination, have fun. Let us know your thoughts, suggestions.
