Why did you start coloring and does coloring help you with any issues or medical conditions you deal with? 
            I color for stress relief from my job and it is therapy and meditation for me. I also have a rare disease and helps me not to focus on my disease.

What would you recommend to anyone thinking about beginning the adventure of coloring?
            Start out with something easy to color and as you go forward and feel comfortable, try new things like color shading and combining colors. If you don't like what you started, move on to the next one.  It is not a completion. Just relax and just color just for you.

Is there anything else that you would like to share?

            I have gotten my 88 year old mother who lives is Maine to start coloring and she loves it!
