Japanese Garden
For centuries, Japanese artists have honoured simple beauty in prints, paintings and books. This adult colouring book recreates 23 artworks for you to colour—images of flowers and trees, garden residents such as the bird and the butterfly, and in-the-moment scenes of people taking in the pleasures of these peaceful corners of the world.
A copy of the original print sits opposite your colouring "canvas" as a reference. Reflections from Lafcadio Hearn's In a Japanese Garden as well some works of the great haiku masters will inspire you as you apply pencils or fine markers to your page.

The floating world of Geisha, Kabuki actors, cherry blossoms and the majestic Mt. Fuji, includes 22 woodblock prints from the Ukiyo-e genre, all ready for the touch of your coloured pencils or fine markers. A copy of the richly-coloured original print sits opposite your colouring "canvas" to use as a reference, or not. Before beginning, enjoy a little of the story behind the image, as each print comes with a brief yet fascinating introduction to the original work. Altogether, it's the perfect way to relax and have fun with art.
