Now I’ve taken that painting and turned it into pages you can use in your own way — for slow colouring, relaxed doodling, or even a simple shared activity for a pair or in small groups.
I’ve also set up a Patreon page for my 'Creative Pages'.
There’s a Community Tier (free) where I’ll be sharing updates and creative ideas. The two designs I share with you here are there for free too.
And there's a paid tier called Pattern Play Creative Pages, where I’ll be adding downloadable pages regularly. $5 per month.
Each project will be released as a series of 10 designs, each available as both a colouring and doodling page. I’ll be sharing 4
designs per month (8 pages total).
I’d really love your input on these first two designs:
- What do you think of my idea to turn collaborative paintings into creative pages?
- Do you prefer colouring or doodling?
- Do you find these too simple or too detailed?
These are my
first digital designs. Previously, after a community project, I’d hand-draw colouring pages based on the artwork and share them back with the schools for their classes to use.
I quickly realised I enjoyed doing them for myself too, so I started thinking… why not create them for every project and begin sharing them online?
I’m a doodler myself — I find it relaxing. I enjoy colouring too, but I notice I become a bit more perfectionist about it. Having a simple colour scheme definitely helps.
You can print these at A4, A3, or A2 for individual or group creative sessions. If you try them, I’d love to
see what you create.
