Nature and Being, Storytelling and Symbolism through Portraiture
This coloring and collage activity was created for the Noah’s Ark program at the Skirball Cultural Center. The activity explores our relationship to nature and the world. You can add photos and a personal statement to express your creativity and create a self-portrait through symbolism, coloring and collage.
Share your finished activity with me and I will add it to a virtual gallery! Email a good-quality photo of the completed artwork at Stephanie.x.mercado [at] gmail.com.

Additional Coloring and Collage Activities
I have been creating intentional coloring and collage activities to share with others in an effort to demystify the art-making process and encourage participants to take a moment to be creative. I believe creativity and self-reflection promote healing, wellness, and gratitude. This body of work has been made available to the public free of cost, and many of the workshops I hold are on a volunteer basis.
Additional coloring and collage activities can be found on Eastlosluv.com/resources. If you are interested in supporting this work, share the resources with your students, friends, and colleagues.
