Publisher's Synopsis
Coloring can be very relaxing and is a great tool for working through tough emotions; but, not all coloring books are created with that idea in mind. Doodled Blooms: A Hand Drawn Coloring Book of Fantastical Flora For Everyone, the first coloring book by artist Michelle M. Johnson, was created specifically to give folks who experience anxiety and/or work in stressful environments a creative and gentle place to go when life gets to be too much. A lifelong coloring enthusiast, Johnson's illustrations are drawn with the sole purpose of being fun, engaging and relaxing for everyone to color. Within Doodled Blooms pages you will find patterns and petals aplenty that have been illustrated so that challenged eyes can color with confidence, both young and mature hands can color without frustration, busy minds can color in relaxation, and everyone can have fun expressing their creativity. As proof of the artist's intention, the back cover of Doodled Blooms is decorated with 20 beautifully completed colorings of the first page of the book, all done by folks ranging in ages from 7 to 77!
Designed for maximum stress relief and coloring enjoyment, most of the images in Doodled Blooms are printed to the outer edges of each page. There are horizontal and vertically oriented illustrations that you are welcome to color from whatever direction is most comfortable for you. This coloring book is a collection of sixteen 8 1/2 X 11in original illustrations, printed on one side of the page only and with ample Test Your Colors space, an approachable book that is just the right length. Also included is a brief artist's illustration reflection for each drawing, giving you an inside look at the process that went into the creation of this unique and fanciful coloring book.
