It's here! Our new charity colouring book, Caring Colouring 2.

Caring Colouring 2 launches today

 
 

It is my great pleasure to announce the release of my second charity colouring book, Caring Colouring 2!

You can now purchase the book which contains 47 artists’ work, or donate & download the extended pdf which has 100 artworks! Click here to buy the book or pdf.

 
 

It’s been two months since I first put out the call for artists to submit their artwork for inclusion in this book and the response has been truly overwhelming.

More than 600 artists submitted their illustrations for this year’s colouring book, and it was a tough job making the selection of whose artwork would feature in the book. In the end I decided that along with the printed book I would offer an extended pdf version of Caring Colouring 2 that features the work of 100 artists. I am offering 3 different prices for this - £20, £30 and £50 - so you can donate more if you are able to.

All proceeds of this book are being donated to the Sea Change Project - a wonderful collective of scientists, film-makers and story-tellers who are actively working to save the endangered sea-kelp forests off the coast of South Africa.

I first heard about the project when my artist Katherine Quinn recommended I watch the Netflix documentary ‘My Octopus Teacher’, in which film-maker Craig Foster spends a year documenting the life of a wild octopus in a South African sea kelp forest. I was so inspired by this film that I decided that this year, all proceeds of this years’ Caring Colouring book would go to support the Sea Change Project.

We need to protect the environment for the beauty and life it brings to the world.

It’s my pleasure to raise donations for this special cause.

 
 

I would like to thank all of the artists who have taken part in Caring Colouring 2, without whom a project of this scale wouldn't be possible.

We will also be giving a limited number of books and colouring pens to young children, in partnership with Fabrica Chomp.

A special thanks to my artist Katherine Quinn whose illustrations of kelp forests and recommendation to watch My Octopus Teacher sparked my imagination to donate all profits to the Sea Change Project.

I hope you’re just as inspired as I was and decide to donate to this special cause.

Many thanks, go gently,

Jehane xo
