Lacy Sunshine’s Eleanor and Pickles Coloring Book: Whimsical Big Eyed Art Froggy Fun (Lacy Sunshine’s Coloring Books) (Volume 1)
By: Heather Valentin
Rating: 5 of 5
Eleanor and Pickles is the first coloring book by Heather Valentin for her Lacy Sunshine characters. In this book, there are 35 designs which show Eleanor a cute little girl with Huge glasses and her little pet frog, Pickles. The two of them get into all kinds of mischief which makes it so much fun to color the designs.
I’m partial to little girl design with great big eyes and Eleanor fits the bill exactly. That she is also wearing glasses appeals to me as I have worn glasses for most of my life.
The designs include all sorts of activities from getting ready for the holiday season to painting to even riding a dinosaur. In my world, Missie Eleanor can have any number of hair colors though I do believe she is a natural blonde.
This is what I found while testing and coloring this book:
35 Fun and Easy Designs of Eleanor and Pickles characters in the Lacy Sunshine line.
Printed on one side of page.
Paper is typical CreateSpace thin, white, slightly rough and non-perforated.
Glue Bound
Designs stop before the binding area
Alcohol and water-based bleed through the page. I suggest the use of a blotter page below your working page
Gel pens and India ink leave colorful shadows on the back of the page.
Coloring pencils work well both wax and oil based pencils put down good color, layer and blend well. Hard lead pencils dent the back of the page.
