Default Coloring for Grown Ups- Parade magazine
Coloring for grown ups is all the rage. It is featured 7/12/15 in Parade magazine. Do we have any clubs/groups/gatherings in TV for people who like to color?

Lorry (wife) and I always use the coloring pages and crayons that restaurants give to kids to amuse them while their meal is cooked. I usually ask the waitress to decide who did the best --invariably, they alway]s they are equal.

I know there is a zentangle group because I met the lady who runs it. So sorry but I can't remember her name! Check the web list of activities. You should be able to find it there

Default Let's combine with Zentangle
Combining with Zentangle would be perfect- I will see what I can find out.

I run a zentangle class. I do not teach it though. You can take a 2-3 hr class through a woman in the villages to learn the basics then come to my class to practice. Google zentangle to see examples. It's fun, easy, and very relaxing! Pm me for further details!

Adult coloring books fun. Anyone willing to start a club? I have my hands full running other clubs but adult coloring would be so much fun

Sounds like fun. I wonder if the taste of crayons have changed?

There was a story about this on CBS a couple of weeks ago. I can see why people like it. It would require some focus that could be calming and you could see what you had accomplished. They talk to the artist who draws the books and also interview some people who have a group that meets to color and have fun.

Here is the link:

Too bad they don't use radiators in TV. When I was student teaching, there was a little boy... and a radiator. And a shoebox of crayons...

I'm not a starter but I would be interested in going to a "Coloring Book" club.
