Coloring Book


I am loving all the new coloring books for adults out there! This is my first one and I am excited to get coloring. This book by Payton Cosel Turner is suppose to be all about the 80's,

"Enter a magical world filled with your favorite little things.

Wander through a 1980’s-inflected dreamscape of stuffed animals and boom boxes, dance along with a joyful parade of woodland creatures--each page of this coloring book invites you to explore a different kaleidoscope-like universe of pattern, shape and image. From the mind of Payton Cosell Turner—the creative force behind the celebrated wallpaper studio Flat Vernacular—comes this all-ages ode to the wondrous objects that make life beautiful. The coloring journey you take through these exquisite hand-drawn pages will inspire and delight."

I missed the 80's by a few months and honestly don't have any nostalgic love for the time period. I loved the animals though! I think 80's lovers might be a little disappointed at the lack of 80's related things. There are certainly a few references, but a lot of the book is different animals.

I enjoyed the overall style of the book, the kaleidoscope like pictures were really beautiful. The quality of the paper and the book itself were top notch. I would just suggest looking at some of the pages before you purchase to ensure the style is for you! I received a copy from Blogging for Books in exchange for my review.
