I recently finished my first fold-out kind of coloring book (by another publisher) and having enjoyed that one so much, I decided to try out the really long fold-out design by artist Sarah Yoon. This coloring book unfolds in a continuous sheet to a full fifteen feet long.
The ocean background is pre-colored in a light to deep green (it gets darker as you get closer to the bottom.) The actual designs are black lines on white. I found that the pages are a little to maneuver unless you have a really big area in which you color. I found that folding the pages the opposite direction from the way they came also helped keep the fold-out manageable.
The design concept is a long tower that reaches from a ship at the surface of the ocean down to the ocean floor. Above the ship are what looks like cloud cities so you have some fun to color at the top as well. The tower is filled with all sorts of characters and elements – it reminds me of some of the crazy cartoon designs I used to see in Mad magazine as a child. There are robots, castles, sea creatures, stairways, trees and more. They make up the pathway to the ocean bottom where a treasure chest awaits you.
This is what I experienced while coloring in this book and testing my various coloring medium on the paper.
15 page continuous fold-out cartoon Ocean theme designs
Printed on one side of the page
Paper is heavyweight, lightly smooth, filled background, non-perforated. The final page is glued to the cardboard backing while the other 14 pages fold out.
Cover (front and back) is a lightweight cardboard.
Alcohol-based markers seep through the paper
Water-based markers, India ink artist pens and gel pens did not seep through the paper
Colored pencils worked well with this paper. I was able to get good color, layer, and blend well with both oil and wax based pencils.
Thank you so much for making sound decisions on my behalf. You all truly are Angel's from above. Hope to see you all at the Rib cook off this year? You're the best and thank you from the bottom of my heartbeat lolol.????????????????
They are the bests.
OCFR Station 86, are some of the happiest and most helpful people I've come to meet. On occasion, I would drop off some home made Leche Flan, and during community events I would meet the various firefighters on rotation. From my observation, very well, run, hospitable people.
