Who else reckons Colour Splash looks pretty?

It looks nice, but I think the art direction for this type of game has a lot of missed potential.

In Yoshi's Woolly World, you could clearly see the world getting built with yarn.
In Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, you could clearly see the world getting built with clay.
In Color Splash, the world is built with paint, pen, and paper - but not nearly to the obvious effect as in Yoshi and Kirby. Plus, there's the obvious missed opportunity to have you use the Gamepad to draw and color in some way.
