  • So much fun, so very relaxing.
Format: Paperback
This book is fabulous. I'm using Prismacolors on it and it looks absolutely beautiful. I'm not even all that great at selecting colors, but the artist did such an amazing job with the drawings that it's tough to make something look bad as long as you stay inside the lines--which can, at times, be tough. Speaking as a grown-up, I was amazed at how extremely relaxing the act of coloring is. I'm looking forward to picking up the latest book from the same artist because I can't wait for more of this sweet, charming art, AND because I can't believe just how much fun I'm having doing it. I'm a very anxious person by nature, but when I get my pencils out and sit down to color, I can almost feel the stressors draining away. This really isn't so much a kid's book, unless your kid's a super careful one and takes their time with it. I was a careful kid, and wow, do I wish they'd made books like this when I was a child. I would have been so in love. Just heavenly fun. The pieces within are quite detailed and so, so very pretty. Kind of silly story but, when I first began working on it, I realized, to my eternal horror, that I finally need bifocals! I looked down to start, frowned, then looked up. Everything seemed okay. Down at the blurry page, then back up again. What was this? Couldn't be! I wailed out to my husband, who's been wearing them for quite a while now, "Honey! I can't SEE this! What's going on?" He had a good laugh at my expense, which I think I richly deserved since I teased him to pieces the day he got his. If you like to draw at night, as I do, plan on having a good lamp for light. I use an old clamp lamp and swivel it around so I can really see what I'm doing. Do I sound a little obsessed with this book? Maybe. But the truth is that coloring these images is a such a relaxing, pleasant experience, and it's helped me a ton with my stress. Make sure to use nice soft pencils. You can't use marker since the images are printed both front and back. Even if they weren't, you'd have to use a very fine nib and the paper is porous, so bleeding might happen whether you wanted it to or not. You *could* scan them and print them out on a thicker paper, and then color with marker, which is something I've been thinking about. I'm so proud of one of my pages that I actually hung it on the wall. Absolutely silly of me, right? That's how lovely the images are, though. I love this book and I recommend it to anyone who needs a little extra help in letting go of the worries and troubles of everyday life. I can't say enough how much this book was worth the ten dollars I spent on it. Just great. ... show more

  • One of the highest quality adult coloring books out there
Format: Paperback
I have been working on this book for a couple of months now, and I love it! The book features hand drawn pages detailed enough to keep you interested through coloring page sfter page of greenery. But because this book is so leaf-intensive, I color one page spread at a time and then color a page in another book to provide some variety. I colored the title page and the first page with my favorite prismacolor premier alcohol markers. Unfortunately, they bled right through the back of the paper, ruining the printed page on the back side. So now I use prismacolor premier and Caran d'Ache watercolor pencils to fill in the pages. These items work perfectly on the pages. Even though the paper is very thick and sturdy, it buckles when I lightly apply a water wash with a water-filled brush to spread the colors and bring out their complete coverage and brighter colors. So I have to be very careful and make sure my brush is only damp and not wet when applying it to the finished pages. The last two speaks I didn't even apply water to the completed pages becsusebthempahes were too detailed and the colors would have muddied if water was applied. It's not as smooth of a color application, but it still looks nice. I like this book because it's easy to pack up the book and my 12 green pencils in a pencil bag and take them to Doctor appointments or anywhere where I expect a prolonged wait. It is a great way to use the dreaded wait time I experience because I am constantly at doctor appointments for myself and my children. Currently I am about 1/3 of the way through the book and am getting yo pages that provide space for me to draw instructed additions to the page like vines, butterflies, leaves, topiary trees, and caterpillars. I am not skilled at drawing freehand, but I did fill in blanks on several pages and my family told me my drawings blended in with the printed pages. It's just an added extra touch that keeps this book diverse and exciting. I can't wait to finish this book and then I will have a display book filled with my artistic endeavors. And that excites me and keeps me slogging through all. those. leaves! ... show more
