This is nice: Artists like Tracey Emin, The Chapman Brothers, Grayson Perry and Polly Morgan have come together to collaborate on The Artists’ Colouring Book of ABCs, a colouring book for kids which will benefit Kids Company, a charity founded by Camila Batmanghelidjh to support vulnerable inner-city children in the UK.
The project is headed by Charlotte Colbert, of Humpty Dumpty Publishing, and Lauren Jones and Alix Janta, the two people behind Alteria Art, which produces affordable artists’ prints. You can view the originals in an exhibition at Sotheby’s on Bond Street, London next month. Check out some more of the letters after the jump, along with an A-Z listing of all the artists involved!
