Behind the art

Inspiration

Inspired by the idea that princesses can be both beautiful and intellectual, enjoying quiet moments with books rather than always attending balls or adventures

Artist notes

I created this princess coloring page to show that princesses can love reading and learning. It's important for children to see that beauty and brains go together, and that even fairy tale characters value knowledge and quiet time.
