The Reverse Coloring Book™ cover

This innovative book encourages creativity through reverse coloring, allowing you to draw lines around beautiful watercolor designs and express yourself freely.

In The Reverse Coloring Book™, creativity takes center stage as you are invited to break free from traditional coloring norms. This unique book features pages filled with vibrant watercolor designs that are waiting for your artistic touch. Instead of coloring within the lines, you’ll be drawing the lines around the colorful shapes, allowing your imagination to dictate how the artwork comes to life. Each page offers a canvas of inspiring shades and free-form patterns, encouraging both sophisticated and whimsical interpretations.

The concept of reverse coloring is not just about art; it also serves as a mindfulness practice. It allows you to engage with the creative process in a way that is both simple and deeply satisfying. As you trace shapes, doodle, or fill areas with your unique designs, you’ll find that this approach promotes relaxation and self-expression. The act of creating becomes a meditative experience, helping to calm the mind and boost artistic confidence.

Artist Kendra Norton has crafted 50 original watercolor artworks specifically for this book, printed on high-quality, single-sided, perforated paper. This means you can easily tear out your masterpieces to display or share. All you need is a pen to embark on this creative journey, making The Reverse Coloring Book™ a perfect companion for anyone looking to explore their artistic side and embrace the joy of creation.
