The artist, Dawn D. Boyer, Ph.D., has produced a compilation of delightful Zendala or Mandalas (zen doodles in mandala kaleidoscopes) in this coloring book which allows the colorist to use their imagination in multiple ways with their choice of media. In this book you will find dozens of illustrations with complicated to simple zen mandalas. All of the artist's designs were created from the artist's hand-drawn original inspired sketches which were manipulated into kaleidoscopic mandalas surrounding a quotes of wisdom resulting in graphically complimentary illustrations with loads of potential for adding color. You will find more complicated images in this coloring book, including heavy lined drawings with simple shapes and designs and more fine-art styles with varied line weights (thin to medium).

The artist has been sketching, coloring, drawing in sketchbooks since age five. After completing 14 coloring books over the last two years, she was looking for another topic to draw lovely images for her next effort. These 50+ images coloring book were drawn just for BIG KIDS at heart. These designs were created from the artist's hand-drawn original inspired sketches resulting in graphically complimentary black and white spaces with loads of potential for adding color.
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 the intensity of design in the mandalas, but also the simplicity of simple doodles or complicated illustrations and inspired art that allow the reader (and budding artist) to pick and chose their favorite design, and then use colored pencils, markers, acrylics, or even crayons to add their own brilliant color combinations.

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 own mind.
