How One Rainy Tuesday Sketched ColorandChill into Existence
From a Kitchen-Table Sketch to a Million Downloads—The Story Behind the Lines
It started on a rainy Tuesday in 2017, when Aurora Whitfield drew a hedgehog in a teacup to keep her two toddlers busy while the pasta boiled. She snapped a quick photo, posted it to a mom-group forum, and woke up to 3,000 requests for the printable. That night she bought the domain ColorandChill.com, taught herself WordPress between lullabies, and quietly launched a tiny vault of stress-busting coloring pages. Six years later, our kitchen table has been swapped for a sun-lit studio, but every design still begins the same way: pencil on paper, tested by real kids and adults, scanned at 600 dpi, and uploaded with a single promise—color freely, breathe deeply.
Why Our Colors Pop—The Magic You’ll Feel
- Science-backed serenity: Each page is vetted by our on-staff art-therapist to trigger the “flow state” in under 7 minutes.
- Kid-approved, adult-adored: Tiny reviewers aged 3–12 give the thumbs-up before anything goes live; their parents sneak the same sheets after bedtime.
- Printer-perfect: We obsess over line-weight so your markers won’t bleed and your pencils won’t snag.
- Always fresh: New freebies drop every Friday in our Free Coloring Library, and premium packs arrive monthly soon.
- Planet-friendly: All digital—zero shipping, zero waste, 100 % guilt-free creativity.
Meet the Tiny (but Mighty) Team Behind the Crayons
- Aurora Whitfield – Founder & Lead Illustrator
Still colors her thumbnails before breakfast; believes teal is a neutral. - Mateo Rivera – Digital Wizard
Turns Aurora’s sketches into crisp vectors while blasting lo-fi beats. - The Junior Review Board – Harper (9), Milo (7), & Arlo (5)
They test durability by scribbling with everything from glitter glue to spaghetti sauce. If it survives them, it survives you.
