"Purfect Playtime" coloring by Lisa Frank. |
I introduced pages from this coloring book to some young children that I was taking care of five years ago. The reaction was exactly the same. The moment they laid eyes on her illustrations, they wanted to color the whole book all at once. I guess big eyed pets will always be a big hit with the young folks.
Lisa Frank Inc. is a private for-profit company formed in 1979, under its founder and CEO, Lisa Frank. The company is known for its colorful, psychedelic designs featured on a variety of media, such as school supplies and stickers.
The majority of Lisa Frank Incorporated’s relevance in popular
culture stems from a wide internet exposure appealing to the childhood
nostalgia of women who grew up with Lisa Frank merchandise in the 1980s
and 1990s.
Lisa Frank Inc.’s collaboration with Urban Outfitters in 2012 has
launched the renewed interest in the company from the previously
mentioned demographic. The teen and young adult targeted clothing
retailer currently sells 1990s Lisa Frank merchandise on their website.
According to an interview with Lisa Frank, the company has saved ten of
each item produced throughout its history and some of those products
are what is currently being sold by Urban Outfitters.
