Synopsis

100 unique, hand-drawn patterns designed to relax the mind.

"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up." --Pablo Picasso

Coloring brings the artist out in everyone – it’s so easy and welcoming. It’s also very good for the mind. Meditation drawing teacher Cher Kaufmann has seen the effects of coloring at work in her sold-out classes.  She provides students with patterns of mandalas and other designs, some colored markers, and watches everyone relax. With each stroke of color, body and thoughts drift into a calm place. Recent studies attest to the power of drawing as well.

Whether you have always enjoyed drawing and coloring, or are new to it, you'll find yourself mesmerized by the beautiful pen-and-ink patterns in this collection.

100 b&w illustrations

Our whole being benefits from a little time out from the hustle and bustle of the day and a connection with our creative side.
