Many colorists like to have the binding removed for easier coloring. As a lot of the illustrations are right to the spine of the book it can be difficult to color. It will cost a few dollars to have the binding removed and a spiral bound attached but may well be worth your while if it is a favorite book. Secret Garden: An Inky Treasure Hunt and Colouring Book Video Review Fraser, Douglas (27 October 2015). "Ink evangelist Johanna Basford makes it big". BBC News . Retrieved 4 March 2022.This is one of my favorite colouring books. I love the beautiful hand drawn illustrations that the artist has created. Comencé a pintar con los 12 lápices, pero necesitaba más colores así que me compré una caja de 24. El libro tiene muchas imágenes de flores, plantas y pequeños animales. En algunos casos, los dibujos parecen mandalas y, en otros, se trata de paisajes de jardines. Alter, Alexandra (29 March 2015). "Grown-Ups Get Out Their Crayons". The New York Times. New York .

I've bought several copies of most of her books - I'm also hoping to scan and print some pictures on decent paper in a light grey or sienna. The book paper doesn't have a good amount of tooth, and some pencil brands don't work that well. If you want to use expensive pencils, you'll get a better result, but I don't waste my good ones on colouring books, I use them for saleable art. So test your chosen brand of pencil before you jump in - I don't use fineliners or markers, so I can't say about those.

Customer reviews

Artist Johanna Basford is at the forefront of the grown up coloring trend. Her whimsical artwork just makes us want to drop all our responsibilities and color forever. - Hello Giggles I love Johanna Basford's colouring books, they're better than most. The designs are lovely, and you can colour as simply or as complexly as you like. Not too keen on the treasure hunts - the objects generally spoil the design for me, but that's just me - a lot of people love it, so if you love that kind of thing, this is for you! Podemos sumergirnos en este jardín y añadir nuestros propios diseños para completar algunas páginas del libro, también cuenta con algunos juegos sobre búsqueda de objetos y laberintos.

El Jardín Secreto tiene una gran variedad de paisajes para pintar: jardines (obviously) al arte medieval, lugares famosos, temas orientales, etc. Y si además de pintar, te gusta dibujar, es ideal para ti, porque hay páginas que necesitan ser completadas siguiendo diferentes esquemas. Colour and complete this special 10th anniversary edition of Secret Garden, the book that started a global craze. Features a brand-new, specially commissioned fold out poster to celebrate ten years of colouring. Flood, Alison (27 August 2015). "Secret Garden colouring-in book sells 3m copies in China". The Guardian . Retrieved 4 March 2022. Here are my thoughts: I've tried many adult coloring books, and I think these are still the best, overall, even for beginning adults returning to coloring for the first time. The goal of coloring this way is to relax and find pleasure in an everyday activity. When's the last time you just indulged in your favorite colors or bought a sparkle glitter pen? The idea with these books isn't to make artistic masterpieces (although a lot of non-artists do!), but to have fun. If you keep the idea of fun in mind, I think you'll enjoy this book.

This interactive colouring book takes you on a ramble through a garden created in beautifully detailed pen–and–ink illustrations by Johanna Basford. Everything started when my sister gave two books for coloring (this one and Enchanted Forest) BTW, she also has Lost Ocean and something about Mandalas).new experimentation : I had to draw the flowers at the right. I still don't know if I'll color the flowers. I figured I should review this book since I've now bought it twice. I think by now everyone knows that the Johanna Basford books started the adult coloring craze, but I bet a lot of folks are wondering if these books are a good starting place. After all, many of the illustrations seem kind of teeny tiny (true!) and the patterns complicated (also true!). Este libro es un tanto distinto ya que en él no encontraremos ríos de letras sino más bien dibujos originales hechos por la ilustradora Johanna Basford. Hablamos de un libro para colorear. La temática está inspirada en la flora y fauna que rodean su casa en la campiña escocesa. Entre sus ilustraciones detalladas podemos encontrar algunos dibujos escondidos a modo de juego para sorprendernos conforme uno va coloreando entre líneas. Y aunque lo mío no es pintar (zero creativity), me ha parecido una actividad super relajante, en la cual me he podido concentrar (e incluso le he añadido música). Ni que decir que el hecho de que el libro venga con los super lindos lápices de Faber Castell (si no es Faber, no es un lápiz de color), le da un plus of emotion.
