This is not your parent's or grandparents' adult coloring book. Rather, this is a coloring book experience for those who want more than just a way to kill time in front of the television. This coloring book is a journey into the creative mind which breaks down the "don't cross that line" mentality of the typical set-pattern coloring books that fill the shelves of Dolor Stores and WalMarts which offer little in the way of a thoughtful experience. The Modern Art Coloring Book, unlike other adult coloring books, will truly expand your mental landscape; as well as inform your ideas about the creative process. Though this book is mainly geared toward adults, children can benefit as well. For both adults and children, it can be a source of constructive entertainment. This book can help the participant to learn how to make design choices, practice shading with cross-hatch strokes, and foster familiarity with a variety of media. So one why not unleash the explorative urge by venturing into new territory with the use of color, textures, and forms to build satisfying works of personal art that one can be proud of, and enjoy for years to come. Each page is an exercise in creativity that will also give you a new appreciation for the work of modernists who have gone before. Another feature of this coloring book experience is its ability to help hone the skills of the professional artists as well who are perhaps looking for new and fun ways to express themselves outside of their normal art discipline. The Book is 74 pages with instructions, links to art suppliers, and includes full-color examples of abstract modernist artists from the twentieth century, as well as five full-color examples by the author to help you on your journey. The book measures 8.5 x 11.

PRAISE FOR THE BOOK: Previously RubyCharmColors' collection of line art was only to be found as PDF downloads on Etsy and it is now with great joy that we see vol 1 of what I can only hope to be an ever-growing collection. It is a colouring book with a difference though, as it is also a journal for your colouring journey, it contains tips and ticks and also colouring charts and wheels to help you along the way. The paper has pretty good tooth and holds up well to the rigours of blending and burnishing. With 22 beautifully illustrated plates and space to make notes about your technique and colour choice as well as an introduction to each piece of line art this book is a must for all adult colouring enthusiasts. -- Lucia, adult colorist
