Teacup Kittens Coloring Book (Design Originals) 32 Adorable Expressive-Eyed Cat Designs from Illustrator Kayomi Harai on High-Quality, Extra-Thick Perforated Pages that Resist Bleed Through

I bought this as a gift and while I was flipping through it it made me wish I had bought myself one! Every page was cute. Perfect complexity/level of involvement to color in my opinion.

Super cute illustrations. My granddaughter is five and she loved it.

I love this coloring book. The pictures are so adorable and so much fun to color. I liked it so much I bought one to give to my elderly mom as well (who can use coloring to alleviate stress, who loves coloring, and loves kittens as much as I do!)Probably what I like most is the examples of many of the pictures which show the colors used to get the same effect. It has been fun to try to duplicate the pictures when I don’t feel like creatively selecting my own colors. I have the set of 132 Prismacolor Premier colored pencils so it was easy to find matches for the examples.

The pictures are adorable, but the coloring tips are what make this coloring book unique.

It is an awesome book

The media could not be loaded.  I really like the designs in this book. The artist, Kayomi Harai is new to me but I will certainly be looking for her books after purchasing the two that are now available. The kittens in the book are designed in what seems to be a hybrid of line drawing and grayscale as much of the cat fur details are done in shades of gray. The kittens are adorable and range from those in teacups to fairy kittens, a kitten in bath and many other cute poses.In my first project, I used gray marker which almost completely obscured the shading so I will be careful with my use of gray in the future and use darker colors on the shading prior to using an all-over color to begin with.My only issue with the book has to do with the publishing. Designs Originals has, this year, begun “shrinking” a number of the designs to include coloring information on the design page. It's been disappointing to me as it renders to the designs harder to color by making the details too small. In this book, ten of the designs are reduced. I like the coloring information but think it could be limited to the colored sample pages or to a page of its own rather than reducing the coloring pages. Because of this issue, I dropped my rating a star from a five to a four.Apart from that, I am really enjoying the book. With these particular designs, shrinking has made the designs a bit more difficult to color but, thankfully, it has not made them intricate or too tiny to deal with. There are many pages, at the front of the book, with coloring hints and colored samples of designs as well.This is what I experienced while coloring in this book and testing the paper with my coloring mediums.32 Kitten designs – 22 full size and 10 reduced size designsDesigns are printed on one side of the page with cute quotes and journal lines on the back of the page.Paper is medium weight, white, slightly rough and perforated. It is also noted as acid-free archival quality.Glue BindingDesigns stop before the perforationsAlcohol and water-based markers bleed through the pageGel pens and India ink pens leave shadows on the back of the page. India ink pens can spot through as well depending on how heavily they are applied.Colored pencils work well with the paper. Both oil and wax based pencils provide good color, layer the same or multiple colors well, and blend easily using a blending stick. Hard lead pencils can dent through the page.I like to use a blotter page below my working page to keep seeping ink and dents from marring the pages below. I use card stock but two sheets of heavyweight paper work well, too. You can also simply remove pages before coloring to keep the rest of the book in good condition as well.

Easy ordering and deliveey

Very cute

Completely in love with this book. It is Amazon paper but it is a good Amazon paper. Usually i hate gray scale, but within this book the gay scale is only on the kittens; the gray scale is light that it is super easy to work with and follow the kitten fur pattern and the shading… in bonus the illustrations are cute and allowed for background experimentation. For some image a color pallette is suggested and an sometime an example is provided so you can just follow the example without struggling for inspiration, really relaxing…. You cannot do wrong in buying this book!

Adorables petits chatons dommage que le papier soit un peu trop fin.Avec des pastels ou des crayons de couleurs cela fonctionne quand même.
