quelle couleur?

Yves Saint Laurent Colouring Book

Colouring is therapeutic. Recently, I showed one of my younger students the very (ahem) technical skill of outlining dark then filling in lightly (while colouring always in the same direction). It was a nice break from barking subject/verb agreement rules, as it was clear that seven-year-old Apple (yes) was more interested in learning how to properly colour than conjugate.

I like the idea of this YSL colouring book because, well, it's very pretty. It would be nice for a coffee table. I also like it because it treated me to the memory of Jessica's Gangsta Rap colouring book which decorated our fridge while we lived together in undergrad. Word.
