Everything IS bigger in Texas. Seriously.

I recently took a fabulous vacation to San Antonio, Texas. In honor of Amanda, Emily, Mary, and Michelle, here is a smattering of silly pictures from a Texas-themed coloring book that I picked up at a general store during our trip. Much like the great state of Texas, these pages are strange and wonderful enough to stand on their own. NO MODIFICATIONS NECESSARY!

Have you ever flipped through a children's coloring book only to find a bizarre mix of shifty characters and creepy captions? Well, I have.

Although we are well-adjusted adults, my colleague-friend and I have recently re-discovered the therapeutic benefit of coloring, and our "morale boosters" have led us down the rabbit hole to a strange and wacky world where good coloring books have gone bad. This blog is devoted to celebrating the creativity, wit, double entendre, and potty humor found in everyday coloring projects.

If you have a funny picture to share, please email me at coloringbooksgonebad@gmail.com. Color pencils, crayons, markers, or mixed media--it's all good. Submissions are merely limited to original works on mass-produced coloring book pages.
