How to use this book When you start coloring pages in this book, please drop any thoughts and relax! Think about the drawing process, the colors, the designs and nothing else. The drawings in this book are printed on one side of the page to avoid bleed trough. Nevertheless, it is a good practice to put a few sheets of paper between pages especially if you are using markers. You may use pencils or markers to color the designs. If you are not sure about a certain color, use the Colors Test Page found at the end of the book. For best results, do not press to hard with your coloring tools; instead try to build up color gradually. For small details and tight places always use a well-sharpened pencil. If you plan to use colored pens, try to find the ones with a fine nib and avoid alcoholbased and heavy ink flow pens because they bleed more. Use any colors you want for the designs. You should know that the colors can literally affect your mood. Here are some general guidelines: bright colors are believed to increase your energy; warm colors (yellow, red, orange) can help you overcame a bad mood; cool colors (green, blue, purple) can calm you down; dark colors can be relaxing; light colors and pastels transmit softness and can be soothing. All of the above are general guidelines, but if you are not comfortable with them feel free to do whatever feels good to you! Enjoy!
