Are mandalas your thing? You shall find some mandalas with a twist here. Are you a fan of floral patterns? Then, again, it is something that might speak to your heart: you shall find carnations, tulips, pomegranates and hyacinths, lilies of the valley, bluebells and campanulae galore on every page - alongside the traditional 'tree of life' Turkish pattern featuring trees in bloom.

Difficulty level: the book is marked 'three pomegranates' - that means it is mainly aiming at advanced colourists though contains some artwork suitable for beginners and intermediate users as well. Pages include both small detail to challenge one's precision and larger flowers to inspire you to use your stunning metallic gradients and silk-like shine effect. There are gem-like forms to create gem effects and tiny pearly lilies-of-the-valley - for pearls, of course.

The paper is a standard #60 thickness, all designs are printed one-sided to avoid bleeding through.

Crisp and clear lines make the designs easy to scan if you would like to use them with colouring apps which allow an import feature.

The book also contains a promotional code for an 80% discount which should allow you to download an instant digital high-resolution printable from the artist's page to experiment with thicker paper and other colouring media.
