Create & Color The Mermaid’s Book of Tails – A Delightful Exploration of Doodle Mash-Ups! by Clare Younis can be colored with crayons, colored pencils, markers, gel pens, watercolor, or even collage to create outrageously cute creatures. Whether you follow the step-by-step projects, copy the inspiration illustrations, or design your own silly mash-ups from scratch, this book offers tons of drawing, doodling, and coloring prompts and ideas for creating mer-osaurs, mer-bots, mer-berries, and so much more!
My 12 year old daughter is the creative one in the family. She takes after my Mom who has been teaching her arts & crafts for the past 9 years. The Princess will sit down with adult coloring books and how-to drawing books for hours at a time. She loves working with gel pens, markers, chalk, charcoal pencils, colored pencils, and water paints. She has a nice collection of artistic materials to work with.
Two weeks ago she received the Create & Color The Mermaid’s Book of Tails and it has been a big hit since day one. Let’s face it, most young girls enjoy those mythical mermaids! You can do several things with this book: color, doodle, draw, and in the back of the book you’ll find fully finished designs/pages that you can cut out and use in your paper collage projects.
These type’s of books are perfect for young beginning artists or those with experinece looking to try something new. It will keep you busy for weeks, if not months working on the pages and/or designs. It’s not a one day and done type of book. It’s very unique, more than just an adult coloring book, you can do MORE with it.
Looking to gift this holiday season? Pick up the book, a pack of colored pencils, pair of paper-crafting scissors, paper glue and an inexpensive sketch pad. Place in a gift bag and you’re done. A holiday (or birthday gift) that will be appreciated by the art lover in your life.
