Mint Forest Girl's Coloring Book by Aeppol Paperback – 2017

This is a beautiful book and well worth the money. My only disappointment is it does not take watercolour very well.

J adore !!! trop beau ce livre ❤️

Everything about this book is gorgeous. The paper quality is excellent, the artwork amazing. Totally recommend this book, well worth the $. It arrived quickly and in perfect condition.

Superb book, very good paper quality. Not to mention the illustrations, which are magnificent. I highly recommend this illustrator!

One of the most beautiful coloring books I've ever seen. While it is a bit smaller than some other books like Johanna Basford's, it is still plenty large enough to work with easily and every picture is worthy of gifting or hanging when complete. It has an extensive collection of pictures with three sections: The Girl in the Forest, A Day Spent at Home, and Season of Blooming. There are so many stunningly beautiful and poignant pictures to color in this book, so many moods covered, and such sweetness and genuine spirit to the drawings. Each page to color has a small colored version of it for inspiration on the opposite side, and the coloring page has a dotted line drawn near the binder so its easy to separate it from the book if desired. I use high pigment Prismacolor pencils and also watercolor pencils and the paper has held up beautifully. FYI, most of the book is in Japanese, but each picture is also subtitled in English. My pics are blurry but at least it gives you an idea of the book as a whole :)

I was a bit intimidated to color in this book because it's so sweet and I didn't want to mess up any of the pictures in it. I finally broke down and did this page and love how my Polychromos pencils worked on it. I also used a Derwent Chinese White and Holbein Soft White pencil in places. I used Dr. Ph. Martin's Bleed Proof White to cover up the little girl's extra long fingers, because it looked so abnormal. Her hands don't look positioned correctly to have those extra long fingers flipping backwards and up for a little girl's hand. I used Distress Ink and Dew Drop Momento's for the background areas. I would definitely recommend buying this coloring book. It was a pleasure to color in.
