The last time I’ve posted a coloring book review has been a year and a half ago! Wow, where did that time go…??? And it’s not that I didn’t buy any coloring books in the meantime, because I sure did (although not as many as before, I’m being more selective in which coloring books to buy or not). I just ...

Quote unquote Quotes, citations, expressions, I regularly use them. I love using proverbs, sayings and quotes in my everyday speech. Actually I’m just some kind of a language nerd. Beside that I also love coloring, with a diversity of materials. And exactly those two things, that fit me like a glove, have been been brought together in the book ‘Chalk-Style ...

Dutch sentiment A while ago, November last year to be specific, I bought the then recently released coloring book ‘Typical Dutch’ by Global Doodle Gems. Being Dutch and living abroad you can sometimes get excited about typical Dutch things. Things that weren’t that special while I was still living in the Netherlands. I mean, a windmill… there are so many ...

Color by number It’s been over a month ago since I’ve colored two drawings from the color by number coloring book Colourtronic (a.o. for sale at Bol.com), so it’s about time to write a review. The book was published by BBNC Publishers and they’ve sent it to me (also for KvV). I’d like to thank them very much, by means ...

Last children’s coloring book review Through Kleuren voor Volwassenen I recently received from BBNC Publishers a third children’s coloring book: Little Pony, for which I’d like to thank them. This is the last one and then I’ve completed the task of reviewing children’s books. In a recent blog I’ve explained that coloring in children’s books is not what makes me ...

Coloring for children From BBNC I received, on behalf of Coloring for Adults (CfA) the children’s coloring book ‘Frightened little Pete’ to review (click here for the review). So that was Coloring for children… As usual I wrote ‘for which I thank them’, and I definitely don’t want to look a gift horse in the mouth, but there are some ...

Nice mandala coloring agenda Through Kleuren voor Volwassenen (Coloring for Adults) I received the super nice One and Only Mandala Coloring Agenda 2017 from BBNC, for which I thank them! Now it’s quite clear that I must write a review about it haha,  so that’s what I’m about to do. The size is 18 x 17,6 cm groot and 2,4 ...

Every month a drawing to color BBNC Publishers sent me, on behalf of Kleuren voor Volwassenen, a copy to review of The One and Only Coloring Calendar 2017. Many thanks to BBNC! It’s quite a large monthly calendar, 30 x 30 cm, with every day enough space to list appointments etc. Every month has its own design to colorize according ...

Especially for men: Men’s Coloring Book From Lantaarn Publishers I received, via Kleuren voor Volwassenen (Coloring for adults), the Men’s coloring book. First of all I’d like to thank Lantaarn. The size of the book is fairly large with its 29 x 29 cm. The paper isn’t very thick, but it’s firm enough and white. All pages are printed single-sided. ...

Miss Doodled Blooms It’s been months ago now that I first met Michelle Johnson on Instagram. She drew me to her own first coloring book, Doodled Blooms. That made Michelle the first illustrator outside the Netherlands for whom I colored and wrote a review. And it didn’t stop there. Because of our common interest in coloring and coloring materials we’ve ...
