It looks like EXACTLY what I like to doodle and observe
I'm a 16 year old with a very artistic and creative mind and I went searching for a coloring book to not only color, but to provide me with inspiration for my own artwork. The cover for this book is what grabbed my attention. It looks like EXACTLY what I like to doodle and observe. The sample of this book on Amazon only had a few pictures to judge, but the reviews promised a book full of beautiful artwork to improve upon with color.When I got the book, I excitedly opened it up and soaked in all the beautiful artwork.Now some of the art in this book is too good to color than I tore it out and hung it on my wall, while some other pieces are too complicated to color without fine tip art products. And of course, if you've read other reviews, there are two pages of just black ink. But the rest of the book is perfect for coloring and really lets you add your own touch to other artist's work.The book is amazing and creative and a very good idea, if there was ever another collection of works like these I would by the book in a heartbeat.

5.0 out of 5 stars A treasure of contemporary art!
Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2013
Verified Purchase
I originally bought this book for my nine year old daughter but after looking at it I think I am going to keep it for myself. I am not an expert on the contemporary art 'scene' (I am not as hip as I once thought I was) but this book is a great primer for what is happening right now in art. The diversity of the works in this book are amazing! Pieces from graphic designers, cartoonists, street artists, and illustrators are included. I especially like the way that the author left the back side of the works blank except for the authors name and web page. That has been a coloring book pet peeve of mine ever since I was a kid. I have taken the time to explore some of the artists through their web pages and I am astounded at two things. First, I love seeing the artist's work the way that THEY decided to color it and I love learning more about each artist and seeing other examples of their work.

I teach middle school and I am going to have an opportunity to use this book in a few ways. I teach an elective to 7th and 8th graders, it is basically art for people who aren't artists. This book will be a tremendous resource for me to plan a unit on what is happening in art right now. Also, have you ever given a 7th grader crayons and just let them color? I never have but I am eager to give my students examples of contemporary art from this book to color as I teach them about specific artists or styles. What a great learning tool for me AND the students.

Looks like I am gong to be buying a few of these books for my students. Can I get a bulk discount? :-)

4.0 out of 5 stars Healthy Mix
Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2016
Verified Purchase
This is a neat coloring book! Every drawing to color is by a different artist and includes a healthy mix of unknown and known artists' works. I recall specifically a Keith Haring that was fun to color. The difficulty level on these pages ranges from very simply to intricate. I like the mix- I have ADHD and have a tendency to color one part of one drawing, get bored, and start a new one- this book offers drawings of different complexity levels and I appreciate that. One star off because some of these drawings aren't really the most suited for coloring- for example, there are some street artist works that were included that are someone's "tag", graffiti style.

5.0 out of 5 stars A coloring book for Artists
Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2015
Verified Purchase
Not just any coloring book. This is a complete collection of today's most inspiring contemporary artists (plus a Keith Haring piece!). If you're not into contemporary art, looking at these images out of context might not be your thing, but if you're interested in art, and learning about art, (or just plain cool stuff to color), I highly recommend this book. Each page is designed to be removed & framed (so images are on one side, and the back side of each page tells you the artist & the artist's website, where you can find more information about their work). It's incredibly fun for the kids who come through our house (we keep several copies in the toy bin with crayons), and fun for adults, too. It's also a great introduction to who you should know about in the art world today. If you're looking for princesses, stay clear.

3.0 out of 5 stars This Review Should Help You Decide If This Coloring Book Is What You're Looking For
Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2015
Verified Purchase
Art by real artists. The backs of the pages are blank except for the name of the artist, the name of the picture, and contact info for the artist. Some of the pictures are super simple, some don't really look like something you could color (example: the page that's pretty much just solid black), some are really weird or kind of inappropriate (there's a picture with a topless lady), and some of them are nice pieces of art with lots of detail. Interesting for someone who likes art, but not great for kids, and not quite what I expected. It is a pretty thick book though. I would recommend "Doodle Invasion: Zifflin's Coloring Book" or "Oodles of Doodles: An Advanced Coloring Book For Adults Full Of Detailed Patterns" if you want something with fun, detailed pictures that are all very colorable, and appropriate for all ages. :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Good art book, especially for the price !!!!
Reviewed in the United States on November 18, 2013

I was intrigued with this book when I read about it, because I did something very similar in college, but of course on a much smaller scale. I was curious to see what this one looked like. I was not disappointed at all !!!! The book is very inspiring to me. Great pictures although some are not very good to color, if that is your purpose ( I like the idea of coloring, it's a great stress reliever).
Some images are clearly not meant for doing anything other than just admiring them. All in all, I think for the price and the content, its a great coffee table book, and if you like coloring pages even if your'e not six years old, even better !!!!!
