Christmas is just around the corner and today I’m sharing a great gift idea for a wide range of those people who are still on your shopping lists. Adult coloring has become all the rage the past couple years and you can look just about anywhere to find coloring books themed for a million different interests. I will freely admit to having one or two of those books myself and find coloring to be a great way to relax and turn off my brain for a little while.
Whether you are artistically inclined like my sisters or struggle to make decent looking stick people like me, adult coloring can be a great way to unwind and let go of stress. The book I’m sharing today is part relaxation, part informational, and a whole lot of fun and YES: TRANSFORM YOUR LIFE WITH COLOR BY NUMBER by Trey Speegle from Regan Arts. is a unique twist on the adult coloring book craze for a few reasons.
First of all Speegle is America’s #1 conceptual paint-by-number pop artist and he has turned some of his unique artwork into gorgeous coloring pages inspired by vintage paint-by-number designs. The beginning of the book even includes an introduction to the color-by-number medium for those of us who enjoy some informational education along with our relaxation.
Secondly, these are color-by-number which means after you pick out a color pallette (there’s even a fold out guide) you only have to remember which color goes with what number!
Lastly, I really love how Speegle incorporates inspirational text into his works. For example, you may be coloring a beautiful New York City skyline, but leave the outlined word HOPE in the center uncolored and you end up with a gorgeous work of art that is worthy of hanging on your wall.
Any people still on your shopping list that this would make a perfect gift for?
I say, “YES,” to this for sure. I love adult coloring books. So fun and relaxing.
