I absolutely love these designs. I have been looking for just this type of book to help me with my concentration problems. Not only are the designs very beautiful but some are complicated at the same time. It is a challenge to see how many different combinations of colors and redirection of design you can come up with from just one page. I am looking for more of this type of book to help me with retraining my memory and cognitive powers, that have been lost due to extensive medical problems. My Dr's all say that this book and others like it are an excellent way of doing what I need in order to reach where I once was.

Thank you for having books like this available for someone like me to use and get back to some kind of a normal life once more.

This is definitely an adult coloring book due to the intricate designs on nearly every decorative tile image. The beauty that comes from each one has given me great delight. Unfortunately the images are printed back-to-back, but if you use good quality colored pencils, this really isn't a problem. I liken some of the images to the beauty and complexity of high-end Persian rugs; however the patterns do not restrict themselves to that style. A few have a Celtic theme, some geometric, a few are similar to floral-themed stained glass designs, and at least one that strikes me as having an Oriental flair. So there are designs for everyone in this book and one can spend many enjoyable hours making the designs "pop" by adding color to the "tiles."

I love design books and am an avid colorer.This one lets you use your imagination and is very enjoyable. The designs are different and have enough intricate detail to make them more complex and challenging.

This is the 2nd one I've bought as I liked the first one so well. It was a very distracting thing for me to do during my cancer treatment. I was so sick of being sick & tired. Nothing to think about but how sick I was! This book changed alot for me & how I felt! consider that when you go to purchase something for someone who is ill.

Prepare to be swept away by the beauty of the images that your color choices will create. The spaces to color are sometimes very small, and require careful work and a steady hand. However, the payoff is immense. These images are beautifully done, and the work you do on them will inspire you.

You may want to photocopy the pages if you wish to display or use each one, since they are printed back-to-back.

Just beautifully done!

This book has beautiful, but incredibly intricate designs. They are very small and would not be suitable for kids. Make sure you have some fine point markers or pencils for this one.

I loved doing these designs with colored markers. They turned out quite pretty. They were too difficult for my 10 year old granddaughter.

I love the intricacies of the designs in this book. Some of the pics took me three days to finish and I find that a great compliment to the originator of the subject. It would be wonderful if they were not printed back to back but it might increase the price. I recommend this with colored pencils for purposes of stress relief and meditation

This book contains 30 full page designs that are beautiful and intricate in nature. Most of the designs are 7 x 9 1/2 inches. Great resource for any artist!

This is a great coloring book-- especially for adults. For other buyers, I suggest this: photocopy the picture you are coloring. That way you can reuse the book for years to come and not worry about the picture on the other side of the page. I have always done this and now have a collection of my "adult" coloring books.
