Household Stories - Grimm Colouring Book
Grimm Fairy Tales were not originally meant for children, they were aimed at adults. The early editions of Nursery and Household Tales contained remarkably dark elements. The stories routinely included sex, violence, incest, and copious footnotes. In this publication, Pallor Publishing brings you the artwork associated with the stories in black and white so that you can colour the images in any twisted way you so desire.
When Covid-19 hit us in early 2020, it foiled plans to re-publish this book with a proper launch. That's ok, because the original publication and launch was foiled by an apartment fire in 2014.
During the first lockdown in early 2020, I hosted a colouring contest with this book, and now with the second lockdown upon us, I'm offering the entire thing for free.

Focusing on book and editorial projects has led me to design several books from top to bottom. In addition to the overall typesetting, I consult with clients and help make decisions on the size and shape of the book, number of pages, the type of paper used, and many other aspects such as binding and cover design.
