100 % free and available to download, The Fine Art Quarantine Coloring Book brought to you by LA-based curator Brooke Wise is exactly what you need for a dose of art therapy.

From Frieze New York to Art Basel Hong Kong, the art world&rsquo;s response to the virus outbreak by opening online viewing rooms, is only the beginning as&nbsp;the art world goes virtual. In an era of social distancing, creatives around the world are adapting to the &ldquo;new normal&rdquo; by swapping physical events for virtual ones. But as Covid-19 comes at a great price for both the artists and their audiences, creatives around the world are finding uplifting ways to keep people connected during a health crisis&nbsp;that is keeping us apart. <a href="https://www.thefineartquarantinecoloringbook.com">The Fine Art Quarantine Coloring Book</a> is a collection of coloring pages by emerging and established artists, as selected by curator <a href="https://www.brooke-wise.com/about">Brooke Wise</a>&nbsp;available for you to download. The book is 100% free, with the option to donate an amount&nbsp;of your choice to a charitable organization, Meals on Wheels.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

&nbsp;The LA-based independent curator, whose projects range from yearly film festivals to group shows, hails from a family of talented creatives. Her sister,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/audemars-piguet/chloe-wise-interview-2019">Chloe Wise</a> is one of the most successful visual artists of our generation. The pair of&nbsp; beautiful, elegant and talented sisters, is what has earned them the title of &ldquo; the Gigi and Bella Hadid of the Art World&rdquo;.

The coloring book includes drawings by more than twenty emerging and established artists such as Haley Mellin, Brittney Scott and Chloe Wise. &quot;We&#39;re all alone right now, while at the same time being together. My drawing is of friends, gathered together, which is now an obvious health risk.&nbsp;&nbsp;Everyone appears happy and content however they are actually all teary-eyed, with tears of hand sanitizer&rdquo; says Chloe Wise about her contribution to&nbsp;The Fine Art Quarantine Coloring Book.&nbsp;

In this project, Brooke Wise invites artists and their audiences to collaborate together in a way that is simultaneously creative, playful and therapeutic.&ldquo;I was doing a lot of anxiety-reducing activities&nbsp;like playing board games, card games, cooking, etc. I knew I wanted to put something out that wasn&#39;t another online group show, and I had a hard time thinking of what that could look like.&rdquo; says Brooke &ldquo; The second the idea of a coloring book came to me, I immediately started to research if any were being made right now and with contemporary artists, and there were none to be found. So I reached out to my friend and designer Jesse Brown&nbsp;and he agreed to help with the design. From there, I reached out to around 30 artists and began moving forward&rdquo;.&nbsp;

For Brooke, the ideal setting for coloring is on the floor, in front of the TV, with her cat. &ldquo;I always doodled in school and even though teachers would ask me to stop while they were speaking, I knew it actually helped me listen and digest the information better. I think this has a similar effect with watching TV, listening to a podcast or anything audio related. Simply put, I like my coloring time to be paired with other activities simultaneously.&rdquo;

During times when watching the news is as&nbsp;incredibly stress-inducing while&nbsp;necessary to stay informed, The Fine Art Quarantine Coloring Book might just be the perfect pairing.&nbsp;Download The Fine Art Quarantine Coloring Book <a href="https://www.thefineartquarantinecoloringbook.com" target="_blank">here</a>&nbsp;
