While I own a variety of coloring books by Majorie Sarnat, this is the first one that I have which includes figures. In this case, the figures are angels. I have enjoyed coloring all of her animals, such as cats, dogs, pigs, and elephants among others but I must say that the angels in this book have increased my admiration of her designs even more.

There are 31 designs with a variety of angel subjects. I especially like that she has given a nod to her former great coloring books by including an angel with cats and another one with dogs. The one thing that the designs all share is an elegance that is Ms. Sarnat’s signature style. I look forward to coloring in this book and to future books by Ms. Sarnat which will include figures as well.

Because of that, if you buy one of these books, it may be slightly smooth or slightly rough depending on when and where it was printed. I’ve found that coloring medium, including pencils, work similarly with both slightly rough and slightly smooth paper from Creative Haven. In this case, my coloring book pages are slightly rough.
