Hopping into Color

An Easter Bunny Coloring Book

Our first book. Twenty-four full-page scenes of bunnies, decorated eggs, flowers and spring afternoons, drawn big and open enough that a four-year-old can fill them in without much help, and detailed enough that an eight-year-old won't feel talked down to.

The Story Behind It

Twenty-four pages of bunnies, eggs, and spring, waiting on a color.

The company existed for nearly two years before this book did. Client websites kept arriving and paying work goes first, so it got made in the gaps while I was still learning the tools. This was the first thing to come out of it.

I had been wanting to learn image generation tools properly, and my two sons wanted to know what all the fuss was about, so we sat down together and learned Midjourney at the same time. We all experimented, some pictures came out better than others, and we picked the final pages together. A few of the pages in the book are theirs.

It was meant to be the first of many. It took two more years for the second one to arrive.
