If you LOVE fairies, if you LOVE fairy houses, gnome homes, and toad abodes, if you love to color, you will absolutely LOVE this coloring book with 55 sketches of fairy scenes. The artist has been sketching, coloring, and drawing since age five. These designs were created from the artist's hand-drawn original pen and ink sketches. There is two version of this book offered - double-pages for dry media and single-pages for wet media.
Coloring books will never lose their appeal - whether you are a pre-kindergarten toddler to the mature adult who is looking for something simple to play with for a solitary pursuit that provides artistic pleasure. This coloring book has some complicated illustrations, as well as simple line art that allows the reader (and budding artist) to pick and chose their favorite illustration, and then use colored pencils, markers, acrylics, or even crayons to add their own brilliant color combinations.
Coloring can be cathartic for those needing something that doesn't take a lot of analysis or thought, while allowing them to pick and chose their personal colors to create an artistic masterpiece. The pages of delightful and imaginative illustrations of fairy abodes allows you to relax while you wile away the hours or the day and find peace in your mind.
How can BIG KIDS (regardless of chronological age) use this coloring book? Whether the co-artist uses crayon, marker, or colored pencil, or paints - or a combination - the beautiful results can be used to pass the time, keep your mind still, go into your own personal Zen; use your hands in a creative way, or to use for a craft or art project. Once the designs are colored - give the books as gifts, use pages as scrapbook background art, or cut out the designs and use in multi-media art. The possibilities are endless!

About the Author: Dawn D. Boyer, Ph.D. has been drawing since she was five years old, and would color her father's office stationery with crayons to create colored paper for art projects. She received her first acrylic paint set in 1973 (a $25.00 kit was a lot of money back then!) and promptly drove her art teacher crazy finishing class projects in hours versus days.
She attended Virginia Commonwealth University's, Bachelor of Art Program, and then re-engaged later at Radford University, earning her BFA in Graphic Design and Illustration. She returned to Virginia Commonwealth University to earn her Masters Degree in Adult Education, and then attended Old Dominion University for her Doctorate of Philosophy in Education (STEMPS/OTS/T&D/HR).
Over the years she has developed a distinctive style for her pen and ink illustrations of old barns and houses, as well as Colonial Williamsburg architectural portraiture. She currently works in mixed-media from recycled magazines to create 3-D images of stylistic animals and mandalas, using childhood craft processes (bubble-gum chains, paper footballs, and quilling techniques) to create sophisticated paper baskets 'crocheted' woven together in a non-traditional way. This is used to her advantage in creating imaginative illustrations of the delightful fairy houses and fairy doors.
She is the author of 98+ books on the topics of business, career search practices, mandala books for hypnotherapy and meditation, 14+ coloring books for adults, women and gender studies, quotes for self-improvement ("2,000+" & "3,000+" series), as well as genealogy and family lineage. She assists other authors publish their manuscripts in the print-on-demand market and also has a series of books entitled: Interview with An Artist. The interview books compile artists' interviews with photos of the artist's work to assist the artists in marketing and branding their work to an international marketplace.
She completed her doctor of philosophy studies May 2013 at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, VA in Education (Occupational & Technical Studies, with a concentration in Training & Development in Human Resources).
