Remember the joy of getting a new coloring book and a fresh box of crayons? What better way to unwind on a Friday night than revisiting that experience, but with the added twist of doing it through your currently preferred medium of choice?

The only downside is the absence of all those little torn bits of crayon labels and that great, waxy aroma.

Obviously I can't take credit for the original line work of the drawing--seeing as how it is truly a coloring book page--but the coloring, texturing and lighting effects were done using Photoshop CS2.

The original image is from an old Disneyland Golden Book coloring book.
