Review: 28 Cute Designs by Thaneeya McArdle – printed on one side of the page - This is a small format coloring book which seems to be a grouping of designs which have been re-printed from other coloring books by Ms. McArdle. It may be that there are new designs in the book as well but I do recognize a number of them from the few books I already own. I wish that the book description would make it clear when the designs are re-prints. I would still have purchased the book because I am looking for books that fit into my handbag. I can either take the whole book or remove a page at a time to take with me. The designs are all in the fun and simple line drawing style that I think of with this artist. It gives the colorist room to “doodle” in their own accents or to practice their blending/shading skills. For my first project, I chose a flower mandala in a tile type of style. I used ultra-fine point markers because of the small details. I will provide more detail about the physical book below but here is an overview of what I found: 28 Coloring Designs with a variety of subjects Printed on one side of medium weight perforated paper Designs stop before the perforations Glue Bound Alcohol and water-based markers bleed through the page India Ink pens bleed through the page Gel pens do not bleed through Coloring pencils work well with the paper This is a coloring book published by Design Original books. As usual with their books, this book includes a number of examples of colored artwork. There are also tips from the artist about a variety of items including how various coloring medium looks when used. The designs in this smaller to-go format book are printed on one side of the perforated medium weight page. On the backside of each page is the a quote or saying and several blank lines. Some people use these to journal; however, I like to note which coloring medium I used on the design. The binding is glued but if you want to remove pages, I suggest using the perforations. The designs stop before the perforations so you will not lose any portion of the design if you remove it from the book. I was easily able to get the book to lay flat for coloring without much pressure on the spine. I will list the coloring medium I used to test this book in the comments area of the review. Here are what my various tests discovered: Alcohol and water-based markers as well as India ink pens bleed through the paper. Gel pens do not but need a little extra drying time. Coloring pencils work well with this paper. I was able to easily blend my soft lead pencils. My hard lead pencils left dents on the back of the page. I cut out a piece of card stock to carry with this size book for use as a blotter. It keeps ink from seeping further into the book and keeps the hard tipped medium from leaving dents that mar the designs below. Review: Great little book - Great little book - easier to color than the majority of "Adult Coloring Books" that I've looked at because the drawings are not so detailed and busy. Although the drawings are not as basic as those found in a child's coloring book, it's a relief not to have to spend 2 hours coloring one flower because of all the curlicues and filigrees. It is smaller than the usual coloring book, the pictures are a nice size and Mcardle's artwork is, as usual, very nice. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #196,174 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #260 in Graphic Design Color Use #385 in Mixed-Media Craft #449 in Mandalas & Patterns Coloring Books for Grown-Ups | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 349 Reviews | ## Images ![Color Cool Coloring Book: Perfectly Portable Pages (Design Originals) Convenient 5x8 Size is Perfect to Take Along Wherever You Go; Fun, Groovy Designs on Perforated Pages - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81WfaittyCL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 28 Cute Designs by Thaneeya McArdle – printed on one side of the page *by I***R on April 4, 2016* This is a small format coloring book which seems to be a grouping of designs which have been re-printed from other coloring books by Ms. McArdle.
