All my life I have loved anything that allows me to be creative. When I was a child, I wanted to be either an author or a cartoonist. I loved to draw and color. I remember sketching out my own superheroes – elephants, cats, and dogs with capes. I remember entering local coloring contests at stores and restaurants. Wow, life was so much easier back then; creativity was easier. As an adult, creativity is forced because of the constant distractions around us. I can't draw a picture to save my life and I haven't colored in years. Well, I hadn't colored in years until this adult coloring book showed up at my door and pushed me to think outside the box, while colors “outside the lines”.
Outside The Lines in an artists' color book for giant imaginations! The coloring books featured the work of over 100 contemporary artists. I absolutely love this coloring book. The art is detailed, abstract, fun, and creative! There are so many pages that I don't think I will ever get to the end of it, which I love. This is my new hobby. While I watch my weekday shows, I color. When I need a break from writing and from life, I color. Who would have thought that this child's activity would bring an adult so much peace, comfort, and sanity. It's nostalgic and absolutely wonderful. I love feeling like this book was made just for adults, while reminding me that I am still young at heart.

I have always loved colouring, especially when I was on sick leave, I used colouring as something to do when I was sleeping 18-20 hours a day. This one looks much better than the kid ones I had
This is pretty cool. I can’t draw, but love to color. It is great stress relief. It is also works as an anti depressant bringing bright bold colors to a blank page.
I love this! I recently colored with my kiddos and remembered just how much I used to love it. But I don’t love my picture options. But the ones you posted look great and right up my alley!
Ohhh I so miss painting now, I use to oil paint but now dont seem to get the time to get back to my passion. These are fun books for adults and I think even kids would enjoy. Bit different than usual color books.
I love to draw and paint and can see myself buying this book soon! Thanks for sharing!
Oh! I so love to color! I want one of these something fierce. 🙂 My kids would get a kick out of them too. So much more fun than the boring old coloring books they have.
Love it! I love coloring. I find it very therapeutic.
