JUST FOR FUN

Color Your Way to Calm

With these delightful coloring apps.

Relaxing, meditative, and fun, coloring can help you reduce stress and find a little focus. No crayons? No problem—none are required for the gorgeous illustrations in these apps.

Lake

Mindfulness is effortless with Lake.

Whether you’re coloring quirky characters, cuddly animals, or intricate shapes, Lake’s simple brushes and palettes make it easy to create something beautiful. The app partners with artists to create digital books across a range of themes and styles. When you subscribe, a substantial portion of the proceeds goes directly to the artists—one way to do good while practicing self-care.

Tayasui Color

All the designs in Tayasui Color are created by Paris-based illustrator Olivia de Bona.

To make sure you don’t feel overwhelmed, Tayasui Color offers a limited number of coloring tools and exclusive illustrations. Despite its simplicity, its features are advanced. For example, touch and hold a tool to adjust its opacity and size; do the same with a color and—voilà—the entire spectrum pops up.

Pigment

Hop into a page from a themed collection or opt for something from featured artists.

With over 10,000 coloring pages, 30 coloring tools, and unlimited colors to choose from, Pigment debuts new coloring pages daily and new books weekly. If you’d rather start with a clean slate, open up a blank page and treat Pigment as your sketchbook.
