About this deal

You can tell just from the cover that this book is special - this book feels wonderful to hold and the highlights of gold on the cover make it look fantastic. A high quality book with interesting and intricate designs to discover within after a short introduction to the book explaining about the rationale behind it, which gave the book a lovely personal touch. Like a gift from Millie Marotta to you. The main thing to say about this colouring book for adults, is that it is not *just* a colouring book, it is a work of art! As with a jigsaw puzzle the completion of the intricate and complicated picture brings with it a sense of satisfaction of a difficult job done well – as well as filling a lot of time.

I hadn't heard about this growing trend which, I understand, started and is really big in France until I listened to an item on the radio about the spread of this latest 'craze' towards the end of last year. So it was useful to be able to see what the fuss was all about when this book landed through my letter box. Again I also find myself too scared to put pen to paper in case I foul it up but that feeling didn't last long, this book is a pure joy and I'm looking forward to her tropical themed book which is due out later this year. Continuing on with my quest to own as many colouring books as it is possible for a 36 year old to own, I bring to you today the beautifully illustrated Animal Kingdom by Millie Marotta.

REVIEWS

This review is taken from my blog where I review adult colouring books from a mental health perspective https://colouringinthemidstofmadness.... You can find images from inside this book there.

It's a development on from 'painting by numbers', mainly because the drawings are so intricate, offering the chance of using a huge variety of colours. In this book the examples are from nature, but a surreal interpretation of it. For example, there's a drawing of a ram but across its body are flower designs. Millie Marotta’s Animal Kingdom was my first colouring book that began my obsession with adult colouring. I received it as a gift from my uncle and it was exactly what I needed to relax and be creative. At the time my baby was only a few months, so this was the only outlet I had when she was sleeping. Acredito que cada um tem uma forma de fazer com que a arte torne parte de você, neste caso, olhar o trabalho da Millie, me traz conforto, se paro para analisar, imagino fácil ela sentada em frente a uma janela de vidro bem grande com vista para uma montanha, rio e flores fazendo sua arte e definitivamente, amo pensar nisso, a paz vem.Millie Marotta is a hugely popular illustrator and her idiosyncratic drawings of the world’s wonderful creatures will draw you in. Millie’s Animal Kingdom offers a range of beautiful illustration to colour in, personalise and make your own. In „Fantastische Tierwelt: Ein Ausmalbuch zum Entspannen“, einem von zwei Malbüchern des Christophorus Verlags mit Motiven der walisischen Illustratorin und Graphikerin Millie Marotta, reiht sich ausgefallenes Motiv an Motiv, so dass schon das Durchblättern allein zu einem wahren Highlight wird.
