About this coloring page
A line of walkers crossing the mudflats at low tide, trousers rolled up, sticks in hand, ripple patterns running away in every direction. Wadlopen is a genuinely Dutch pastime that sounds absurd until you have done it — you walk to an island across a seabed that will be underwater again in six hours. The ripple pattern in the mud is the whole page: repetitive, meditative, and it rewards taking your time.
Printing tips
Set your printer to “fit to page” and turn off headers and footers. Ordinary 80 gsm paper is fine for pencils; use 120 gsm or heavier if you colour with markers so the ink does not bleed through.
