Book Description

Kaleidoscopia Coloring Book May 1, 2009
The wonderfully imaginative abstract images in Abstract Adventure IV were created free hand by artist Kendall Bohn. ''I let each drawing design itself. Each line influences the next from the first line to the last. It is in the nature of intersecting lines to form patterns within shapes. Overlapping shapes create depth. The lines flow outside the edge of the page so the patterns may continue undistorted. A pattern in an abstract form must stay consistently inconsistent to give the design order and reason. The ever changing patterns are common threads that run through the designs making harmonies that, like strings of musical notes, balance the composition. Harmony in abstract images is created through the slight variation of related shapes.''

This book contains color theories to guide you while coloring outside the box. Colors also create harmonies, discords, patterns and depth. Use these theories to help answer your questions and to bring out the artist in you!

This review is from: Abstract Adventure IV; Coloring Outside the Box: A Kaleidoscopia Coloring Book (Paperback)
I have 2 kaleidoscopia books. This one is better than #5. Lots of crazy shapes, patterns, paths to follow. Going outside the lines won't be as much of an issue for little kids because these lines are thicker than say, a Dover book. There are a lot of options how to color this stuff and some of it is definitely intricate. Pages are single sided and the paper is quality. 26 pages to color.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very pleased, March 23, 2011

This review is from: Abstract Adventure IV; Coloring Outside the Box: A Kaleidoscopia Coloring Book (Paperback)
I have bought a number of these books. I really enjoy them. This book has one picture per page (nothing on the back) which is nice because I use Sharpies for coloring and they bleed through. The paperweight is nice as well. Thicker than most books I have.
These abstract books are really nice. They allow for so much variation of color and light. If you have a bit of creativity you will really enjoy them.
So, while the price is higher... I really am pleased with them. I will purchase more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Oh yeah!, October 24, 2011

This review is from: Abstract Adventure IV; Coloring Outside the Box: A Kaleidoscopia Coloring Book (Paperback)
Once again, a wonderful addition to the series. It's amazing how each book in the series can improve from the last. This one has several new designs that are very intricate (like the one on the front cover). There are a few designs that are more simple, but still interesting to color. There are also a few designs that are similar to the previous books in the series, but they're not exactly the same. Different enough to still provide a unique coloring experience.

For those that have never purchased any of the Abstract Adventure books:
This book has many different types of designs, both simple and intricate. The quality of the paper is excellent. The designs are only printed on one side of each page, so there are no designs that will be ruined due to bleed-through by high quality inks.

Overall: Out of the first four books of this series, #4 is my personal favorite. If you plan on only purchasing one book in this series, I recommend this one.
