If you're looking for a fun present for someone artsy in your life, check out this new coloring book from Jenean Morrison,
another print designer who works with Free Spirit. She published this
gorgeous thing herself. And it's just that—gorgeous. Every page is a new
repeating pattern—there's 50 of them—on crisp, white paper, in a thick,
substantial book—it's not one of those floppy, wussy coloring books
with newsprint pages.
I'm a big fan of artsy, craftsy gifts for kids especially during the
holidays because they come with built-in entertainment. This makes the
time off from school go more smoothly. And it's not TV or video games.
I'm giving this copy to Charlotte for Christmas. So, I've gotta go wrap it up.
If you want one too, as a gift—or for your own self—you can get your copies on Amazon.com. Here's the link. Support an independent artist while you're at it. They are only $12. And stop by Jenean's blog for a hello and a congratulations. Birthing out a book is no small feat.
I´d love that for myself! 🙂
This is great! I’d think I may get one for me and some of my nieces. Thanksgiving weekend, I was at my parents visiting & 5 of my nieces and nephews were there. They were all sitting at the table with their phones out…texting, playing games,etc. I sat down with a pen and paper & started doodling. Within 10 minutes, they all put their phones away and started doodling, too. IT was fun!
I buy these for myself love them!!!
She did this herself? I can’t imagine writing my book AND publishing it. doing all the other work that needs to go into it is huge! That is unreal! My girls would love this too!
Oh! I need this. I have been out of creative mode for a while and this would be a nice, safe way to get back into it! Perfect for a cozy winter day inside!
I love seeing creativity flow…and am trying to get myself back in the flow of it. Your blog is inspiring and I am loving every moment perusing through it.
