If you are a fan of the pop-punk genre, you may have heard of The Pop Punk Coloring Book: Volume 1, by Etsy artist Emily Becker, that was released earlier this year. The latest edition, Volume 2, is 40 pages and includes acts such as Good Charlotte, Simple Plan, Patent Pending, and more. The book is currently on sale for $14 with the digital edition on sale for $8 for a limited time.
Talking about the inspiration behind the first coloring book Becker says, “The first book was my demo – the first time I attempted to take my fine arts education and do something fun with it. I’m so lucky that it took off the way it did but I always knew that I could push myself to make something of an even higher quality,” shares artist Emily Becker. “This time around I really focused on detail, improving my drawings, and incorporating the lyrics that have stood the test of time with music fans.” When thinking of who to include in Volume 2, Becker kept an open mind in order to include more musicians in the fun. “I didn’t hold myself too accountable to strictly pop punk bands – the scene and its fanbase is becoming more eclectic and I wanted to branch out and include some bands that would not have necessarily fit the definition of pop punk that I used in the first book.”
