Follow Your Bliss Coloring Book (Coloring is Fun) (Design Originals) 30 Beginner-Friendly Peaceful & Creative Art Activities on High-Quality Extra-Thick Perforated Paper that Resists Bleed-Through

I love the pictures in this book, in fact this is the second book by this company that I have purchased. The only problem that I have found, comes from the use of sharpie markers. I have had several other coloring books where I haven't had a problem, but the type of paper used in this book tends to allow for bleeding. I'm not talking about from front to back. I'm talking about when using different colors on the page. When coloring in a small circle, I barely touch the page and the color is running outside of the lines. It's frustrating. If you color with gel pens, crayons or colored pencils, then this isn't a problem, but if you like the ultra-fine sharpies for the pop of color, like I do, this book probably will frustrate you more than anything.

Love this book, the pages are nice, thick, and perforated, and all pages are one-sided, so you can tear out a page and use whatever medium you use to color with, without worrying about leaking or transferring anything onto the next page. They also have colored-in examples, color schemes, blending techniques, and other useful tid-bits of information on how to make you picture beautiful and perfect like the examples given. Definitely a very "zen" type of coloring book, with tons of lotus flowers, Hindu-esque types of designs, very Bollywood type of adult coloring. You definitely feel very Zen while coloring in this book. FYI, all of these particular books from this author are amazing, detailed, and beautifully drawn, with tons of words of affirmation, and inspiration.

I bought this book specifically to share with the coloring cancer support group I lead each week. They all loved it. The pages are very well drawn and when coloring them they blend perfectly with the relaxed, meditative energy we strive for in the group. I will continue to use these pages within the group. Good quality paper, perforated and all levels of colorists will enjoy this beautiful book.

Awesome for me. I'm new to adult coloring bc I'm an adult and coloring seems childish... but it's not when use gel pens and add the word adult in front of coloring! When I was searching for a coloring book, I was looking for something that didn't have a ton of little things to color but instead had big pictures that wouldn't stress me out. The point of coloring as an adult is to de-stress not get stressed out because the pictures are crazy detailed. This book was just what I was looking for. Just enough but not too much. I'm incredibly happy with it! I'm already looking for another one to buy!

I gave three stars because of the fairly large dirt smear/print (see photo) on the design I was looking forward to coloring the MOST out of this whole book!!! I couldn’t believe it. Well I can actually, that’s my luck lol. All the other pages were perfect, and of course the designs are wonderful as they always are with this artist so no complaints on content, just on that big ugly dirt smear/print on my FAVORITE design in this book! 💔 😔 😭 🤬 💔

I thoroughly read the reviews before purchasing, as some of these new coloring books can either fall on the dull side or the, way too complicated to be relaxing end. Bought this as a gift but, can I just say, I was blown away by how much tenderness, beauty and love was surely put into making this wonderful coloring book!!! I hate to even reference it as that.I was hooked from the first page! It has amazing illustration suggestions, coloring guides/layouts, examples of how to add your own touch to the already beautiful original. I could go on & on. It literally gives you a fantastic art lesson in just the first few pages.I purchased for an 8/9 year old though, immediately wished I had got 2 (one for me too!). I HIGHLY recommend this delightful treat for anyone, at any age! It's so calming, relaxing and fun, all at once. Much thanks to the author. Fab!!! xxAP.S. I'd make copies of the designs you like best so you can have a few practice sessions before you color the master. No joke, you may want to frame it! 😄

I am in love with Thanyeeya's coloring books. I now have 7 of her books and I am hooked! These are such a joy to color in because her artwork has the perfect amount of detail, not too big and not too small that you feel so overwhelmed coloring. I know when I color I want to be able to relax and not be overwhelmed by too much detail. I also love these because I want to be able to sit down and be finished with a page in no more than 2 or 3 hours, not a page that takes days to finish, not my style. Hands down these are my favorite coloring books to color in and I have nearly 50 books!

The thick pages are great. I also like that you can remove them with no problems, due to the perforation. I also like that there is a small tutorial about how to make your own Mandala pages, and that there are already-colored pictures for inspiration and that the author tells us what kind of markers/gel pens/colored pencils she used to create the pictures. Great book!

I love the decorative quotes and designs. I was looking for something fun and different, and found it here.I would have given five stars but the paper isn't great to work with. I haven't tried pens or watercolor pencils, but I found softer pencils lay down color better than hard pencils, but smears across the page. For someone adding a background, this might not be a problem, but if you want the white background of the original page, this is an issue to be aware of.With hard pencils, you have to press harder to get the color onto the page, which dents the paper and destroys the surface of the paper, and the colors don't blend well. Bloom appears after a few passes on the page, rare for hard pencils, because the surface layer of the paper is being compromised.For basic coloring, I think this is a decent and fun product. But until you find the right pencils to work on this paper, don't look at trying to create frameable pages.

I have many adult colouring in books and this is my new favourite. It is so lovely, Due to the amount of amazing adult colouring books around lately it is saying alot to say this is now my favourite one. It is so special and each and every picture is nicer than the page before. There are so many tiny details that make this book amazing. The theme of the book is transcendental art and on the opposite page to each picture is an inspirational quote.There are 30 pictures to colour in total and each page is perforated but sadly the pages are not bleedproof (if you are using alcohol ink pens such as copic markers). The designs are great for shading techniques and perfect for using with intense ink pencils. It is best to place a piece of cardboard between each page to prevent the picture underneath getting ruined.I have added photographs for your convenience.

This is the second (maybe third actually?) time I've bought this book as I enjoy every pattern so much!I have always loved this ladies designs, I find her simply flowing creations so calming, occupying and adaptable (sometimes I have so many ideas for one pattern I will either try and trace it again, photocopy it or easier just buy the book again!)The paper is of the perfect quality that doesn't cause pen colouring to be absorbed to the point where it then spreads or soils the page, and Thaneeya provides inspirational ideas for some of the patterns throughout the book too.Keep producing please! Unicorns and mystical/fairy designs would be appreciated

Great pictures to colour and plenty of scope to add your own design ideas should you wish. One of the best colouring books I have seen.Paper quality is working well with markers, gel pens and felt tips. Have not tried pencils on the designs. Great section at the beginning explaining colour and blending techniques. Go ahead and get it - you will love it

A very pretty book, pictures are so much fun to colour & so relaxing. Love this one.
