WARNING: This coloring book is for adults.
That is, if we art teachers qualify as adults. I don't know about you, but most days, I feel like an overgrown adolescent. However, my driver's license, which states my birth year is somewhere in the 1900s, claims otherwise.
For the longest time, I felt secluded on my Art Teacherin' Lonely Island. Trying to navigate the ups and downs, the messes and mayhem of all things art teacherin' can feel like a solitary voyage. But I want you to know that you ARE NOT alone.
Exploded kiln? Been there.
Third paint spill of the day? Yep!
A kindergartener shouting, "I love art!" It's just the best, isn't it?!
For that reason, I wanted to create something that felt like a hug and a high five for you to enjoy at the end of a long, exhausting, joyful, messy art teacherin' day. Consider it a celebration and a commiseration of all that we do.
On the 48 pages of this 8.5" X 11" book filled with 70lbs paper that is perfect for your coloring medium of choice, you'll find Art Teacherin' Land, a game for you and your art teacherin' buddies; a spread to jot down all of the wild and wacky things your students say; a map of Lonely Art Teacherin' Island for you to color and navigate; a place to express your Art Teacherin' gratitude as well as ways to reconnect with your creativity...and so much more!
For many moons, I had you on my mind as I created the pages of this coloring and activity book. You are amazing, art teacher! This one's for you.
