The Faculty of Creative and Critical Studies along with alumni UBC are seeking art submissions for Colour My UBCO 2022. Color My UBCO was produced for Homecoming 2021, and featured original artwork by students, alumni and the UBCO community under the theme of the Spirit of the Okanagan. Art therapy is used for meditation and as a relaxation technique, and coloring books are a fun way to help adults destress and relax, and improve mental health and wellbeing.
UBC Okanagan student, alumni, staff and faculty artists of all levels are invited to submit an original work for a colouring book page in any style (remembering that is should be an outline of an image that can be coloured in!) Submissions may be a re-creation of an existing work, or a new piece for this book. From personal sketchbook drawings, pop art designs, portraits, landscapes, we want to see your creativity and what the Okanagan means to you.
