Alaskan Wildflowers is the first volume in the "Flora and Fauna of Alaska" series of Adult Coloring Books created by Katmai Kreations. This book will take your inner artist on an educational and exciting journey filled with hand-drawn images of wildflowers which includes their common and scientific names, a detailed glossary of fascinating facts about the plants and their medicinal uses, and even a recipe for Fireweed Jelly! The images within were drawn by hand while using photographic references taken by the authors, and the glossary in the back of the book will tell you exactly what the flowers look like in nature. Of course; you are only limited by your imagination, so have fun and color them however you wish! Not only is the book educational and fun to color, it was also designed with some very important requirements in mind. First among these, is that every image will fit within a standard 8x10 mat or frame without losing any part of the design. Since custom framing is so cost-prohibitive, the authors wanted to create a book that was affordable to display after it was colorized. Keeping that in mind, the authors decided that every drawing in the book would be single-sided so that bleed-through would never be an issue. This will allow the artist to choose a wider variety of artistic tools to color their pages with, such as markers, paints, and pens, and will also allow them to frame every single image if they so desire. When using paints or markers, it is recommended that a piece of cardstock be placed between the pages to act as a buffer and prevent bleed-through. After careful consideration, the authors decided that the book would contain high quality, bright white paper rather than a cream or off-white, so that every color used would reach its fullest potential and brilliance. Once framed, the pages within would make personalized gifts, home d�cor, or wall art within a baby's nursery.
