Colouring is Better Together

You’ve been wandering, collecting, colouring in wild corners — and now it’s time to bring it all back to the circle. We invite you to step into the shared part of the journey: shared creativity.
There’s something special that happens when creativity becomes a conversation.
A friend’s palette opens up new possibilities. Someone else’s sketch makes you see a flower in a way you hadn’t noticed before. You laugh together over a paint-splattered table, swap ideas, or sit in quiet parallel making — no words needed, just pencils moving.
This week is about inviting others into your creative space, even if it’s just for a moment.
Have you thought about:
Host a colouring picnic — bring a blanket, a handful of pencils, and let others join in
Start a shared sketchbook or colouring book with a friend or family member, passing it back and forth
Stick a page on the fridge and let your housemates or kids or partner add to it throughout the week
No pressure, no perfection: just shared marks, shared joy. Let it be messy. Let it be spontaneous. Let it feel like summer.
And if you’re feeling a little shy — that’s okay too. Even just posting a small scribble online, or leaving a sketch behind on a park bench, can be an offering to the community.
We believe that creativity multiplies when it’s shared. So spread it around like wildflower seeds.
