The Artful Mandala Coloring Book: Creative Designs for Fun and Meditation

By: Cher Kaufmann

Rating: 5 of 5

This is my first coloring book by Cher Kaufmann and it will not be my last. The smaller format book is filled with designs that will provide me with many hours of coloring fun and relaxation. While many coloring books are created from computer generated artwork (and I enjoy those, too), this book has 100 hand-drawn designs from the beginning to the end. They are not all mandalas but those that are not are certainly influenced by the artwork associated with mandalas. I really appreciate the wide range of choices in this book.

In addition to the designs, the artist has included interesting suggestions on how and where to color. Also, she has included explanations of what the various colors mean as far as what you may be expressing when you wear (or color with) a particular color, e.g., gold means wealth, elegance, abundance, and success.

The pages are white and are a good weight. The pages micro-perforated for easy removal. The designs are printed on one side with the back of each page left bland.

All of my markers bleed easily through these pages. I have been able to use various gel pens (including Fiskars) with no leak-through. My suggestion is to test your type of marker/pen and if it leaks through, put a piece of thicker paper or chipboard under the page you are working on to keep the following page from getting ink on it. Or you can simply and easily remove the page from the book and not have to worry about it at all.
