Hello all! I just recently started my own line of coloring books for adults... (and children... so far no R rated content, that is...though I am considering doing a book just for men and if I do, then one for women as well.....lol) I found this board and joined in order to meet people who are actively participating in the coloring revolution. I'd like to get to know what people are looking for that isn't available on the market today so that I can publish as relevant (and marketable) content as possible in hopes of delivering a coloring book that will be that will be enjoyed by many and for years to come. Though honestly, I haven't colored much, I am an artist and I have found that I enjoy creating art that people can color and make their own.
My first two books are already available on Amazon in both Kindle and paperback.
My first coloring book.. 'Auntie V.'s Faces of Dia de los Muertos' on Amazon
My second... 'Valentines Day' by Auntie V. on Amazon
A little history. I found out that coloring was becoming a thing and decided to check into it. When I saw what was on the top of the best seller list, and after subsequent research, I realized that there may be a need that isn't being filled. That need is for easier coloring spaces. While many experts claim that adults require more detailed designs for coloring, I personally find that when I have tried to color these types of patterns, I actually get stressed out because for one, my sight isn't what it used to be and secondly, I have the need to be more in control of the colors by having more options of what I color. Also, I feel 'confined' by the tiny spaces that are repetitious in most designs available. I've since found several others who would like 'looser' patterns like the ones I am coming up with for the same and other reasons. So that is where I'm at as far as what ends up in my books. I plan to continually work on developing a unique coloring experience and can use all the help with feedback and ideas that I can get.
So that's my story so far
I've attaching a page from each book for your review....
Thanks for reading!
