About this book

Inside you will find owls on gates and ravens on headstones, pumpkin patches and apothecary shelves, misty forest paths, an ancient oak, a witch's cottage, and ornamental mandalas built from bats, pumpkins and spiderwebs.

These are grayscale designs, and that is what makes them different. The shading is already done. You lay your colour over the top and the greys underneath do the hard work, so a finished page looks rich and dimensional with far less effort than flat line art. It is the reason grayscale colourists rarely go back.

Fifty detailed designs, every one different: creatures, characters, scenes, objects, botanical plates and mandalas, so no two pages in a row feel alike.

Single-sided printing with a blank page behind every design, so colour can never bleed through and ruin the next picture. A colour test page at the front has a printed grey band in every swatch box, so you can see exactly how each pencil behaves over the shading before you commit to a page. Large 8.5 x 11 in pages with generous margins and no solid black areas, so every page is left colourable.

Great for anyone who colours to unwind, autumn and Halloween lovers, a gift for a colourist, and quiet evenings in October. There is no right way and no finishing line. Take your time.

Who it is for

Adult colourists who like coloured pencils and want the shading already done. The gentle, decorative half of the Halloween pair: owls, pumpkins, haunted houses, apothecary shelves and mandalas. A good gift for a colourist who has worked through the usual florals, and a calm place to sit in October.
