Coloring with Cooper Beach Life David Whitney Jr

A collection of ocean inspired drawings I've drawn for your coloring pleasure. For years I've been drawing, sharing them with my friends, family and students. More times than I can count, people have commented that they'd love to have my pictures to color. This has always been followed up with telling me that I should create a coloring book. The suggestion was always a flattering compliment and I eventually started putting aside images people expressed an interest in coloring and soon started drawing images specifically for others to color. Some of which have found their way into this book. When it came down to coming up with a catchy title for my coloring book, the name I went with kept coming to mind. One constant that surrounds me throughout my daily life is my dog, Cooper. She is always at my feet in her bed below my desk, at my side whether sitting on a bench, sleeping next to me and even on the surface I'm working at. Cooper is always the one who gets in my face, forcing me to take a break when I'm wanting to follow through until completion. When I'm figuring out and contemplating anything, Cooper is right there for me. This coloring book represents the many moods, ideas, and dreams that pop into my imagination. I wanted to fulfill my friends' and family's wishes to put my creativity into book form, and I especially wanted to share my art with anyone who loves to escape real life for a while and just be a kid again. I hope you get as much enjoyment coloring these pages as I had while creating them.
