The artist, Dawn D. Boyer, Ph.D., has produced a compilation of delightful heart-based images in this coloring book which allows you, the colorist, to use your imagination in coloring the pages in multiple ways with your choice of media. In this book you will find hundreds of valentine hearts, designs, mandalas, and kaleidoscopes.
All of the artist's designs were created from the artist's hand-drawn original inspired sketches resulting in graphically complimentary illustrations with loads of potential for adding color. You will find a range of illustrations from simple to more complicated images; heavy lined drawings with simple shapes and designs, intermediate styles, and then more fine-art styles with varied line weights.
The covers of the two books for Valentine Hearts A'Fire were colored by contestants in a contest which the artist/author offered to her fans to obtain the most beautiful colored images for the covers.
What can you do with the book once you have finished? Once the designs in this book are colored - give the books as gifts, use pages as scrapbook background art, create greeting cards, or use 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!). She promptly drove her art teacher crazy finishing class projects in hours versus days.
She attended Virginia Commonwealth University's, Bachelor of Fine Art Program, and then re-engaged later at Radford University (Radford, VA), earning her BFA in Graphic Design and Illustration. She returned to Virginia Commonwealth University (Richmond, VA) to earn her Masters Degree in Adult Education (Adult Education and Training in Human Resources), and then attended Old Dominion University (Norfolk, VA) 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 using 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. Her drawing talent gives her an advantage in creating imaginative illustrations of the delightful fairy houses and fairy doors.
