Sorry, it's been a while since I posted, so I scanned a bunch of pictures today. I know I said the Paisley book was my favorite a few weeks back, but if I had to pick an all-time favorite it would be DECORATIVE TILE DESIGNS by Marty Noble. I'm planning to buy this one again. Why? Well, I only use markers, because I like the bright colors, but they bleed through a little. Not a lot, but enough to make coloring on the other side of the page useless. So now that I've colored every page I possibly can, it's time to buy a new one so I can color all the ones I missed. I love this book that much. There's so much detail. Each picture should take you a couple hours, perhaps spread over a few coloring sessions. I've been listening to Oprah and Eckhart's A NEW EARTH on podcast, and coloring these pics as I do. Check out the cool designs...

Imaginative Patterns


There are five or six books in the ROGER BURROWS IMAGES coloring book series. All feature geometric patterns that can occupy a colorist for hours. That is if your sanity survives that long. :-) I suspect a secret underlaying attempt to drive a person bonkers with these pictures. The spaces are so small, and there are so many, and if you color the wrong space with the red when it should have been yellow, well! Whew! Probably these pictures should be worked on in small doses. The sample is not one of the busier pictures from this book.
