Vive Le Color! India (Adult Coloring Book): Color In; De-stress (72 Tear-out Pages)

Rating: 5 of 5
The designs are printed on the front side of each bright white medium weight page with the backside blank. The prints themselves range from some with heavy lines to some with very delicate lines. My children’s after-school care was provided by a gracious family from India. Their home was beautiful with many traditional Indian art designs and their clothing was gorgeous. The colors of the saris that they wore will be a huge inspiration to me as I color in this book. The designs are beautiful and have a variety of styles and some have very intricate parts to them. I will probably resort to my magnifying lamp from time to time with this book.

My pencils and gel pens are working great with the paper but I will use a backing piece of freezer paper or cardstock if I decide to use markers as some may leach through and ruin the next page of designs.
This is a new design company for me and, based on how beautifully done and unusual the concept is for this book, I have now purchased their books on Japan and Butterflies and am considering some others that they have available in kit format.
