Local adult colouring book is a mandala-inspired delight!

Announcement posted by InHouse Publishing 17 May 2016

Adult colouring-in books have been taking the world by storm in the 2010s, and their popularity has only risen this year. Touted as aids to mindfulness, de-stressing, and increased creativity, adult colouring-in books are great tools for the adult to engage with their childlike sensibilities once again, and get lost in a calming world of colour and directed focus.

Brisbane-based artist Jannah Smith has been drawing since she was young, and found art again as an adult, tapping into her fascination with intricate detail, symmetry, and geometric styling. She has been selling versions of Daydream to delighted consumers via markets and trade for the past several years, but this hardcover release of Daydream sees the book delivered as a beautiful product to behold. The hardcover style and binding along the top edge makes this flip-book the perfect item for the owner to take with them and draw on the go, using the rigid hardcover as their sturdy surface – on the train, at a café, when travelling.

If you’re passing through Imbil, Queensland, why not grab a copy from recent stockists ‘Seeds to Serendipity’? You can also find Daydream being sold by the author herself at the Eumundi, Gympie, Pomona, and Yandina markets in the future. http://www.cloudbustingart.com.au/
