Book review: The Gorgeous Colouring Book for Grown-Ups

Now in its twenty-eighth year, independent publishing house Michael O’Mara Books has established a reputation for its highly original, entertaining and educational selection of books from biographies and pop culture to nostalgia, humour and children’s titles.

The Gorgeous Colouring Book for Grown-Ups is a typical example of their mission to bring readers innovative new books. With its hundreds of beautiful, detailed and intricate patterns just waiting to be carefully coloured in, this is the ideal way to discover your inner creative self and will provide hours of relaxation and enjoyment.

Doodling and colouring have long been known to enhance the thought processes and provide a calming yet highly creative way to free the mind.

The designs, ranging from beautiful flowers and leaves to graphic swirls and geometric patterns, are printed on high quality paper and can be used as part of other craft projects.

There really is something for everyone to colour here… frame your designs, use them as a base for a larger canvas or simply colour in each page and let the book build into a piece of work that you can truly call your own.

The Gorgeous Colouring Book for Grown-Ups is the perfect gift for the artists in your family who are just waiting for the chance to release their hidden talents… go on, give them a treat!
