Lost Ocean is produced on nice, clean, crisp white stock - all your colour choices will show up true. (No worries - there's an answer key at the back!) Every page from cover to copyright page has images to bring colour to.Īnd then there's the added fun of trying to also find hidden images in the drawings - diamonds, rings, keys, gold coins and others. The last picture is a double sided four page foldout - okay I am indeed saving that one 'til last. Basford has touched on all things oceanic from images of creatures of the deep - fish, octopuses, mermaids, lobsters, crabs to sunken galleons and their treasures, whimsical designs and more. Lost Ocean offers a wide range of choices from intricate, to simple. Now, are you one of those people who will start at the beginning and do all the pages in order? Or are you like me - I'll pick the one that appeals to me and start with it, choosing another as the mood strikes. (I'm a magpie - anything shiny catches my eye!) I liked the gold accents on the cover - it hints at treasure within. I thought I would dive (pun intended!) into Lost Ocean: An Inky Adventure and Colouring Book. Johanna Basford has a number of adult colouring books out - all quite amazing. Could sitting down to colour be enjoyable? Relaxing? Dare I say - stress relieving? And then I tried it - and the answer is yes to all of the above. Okay, I admit it - when I first heard about adult colouring books, I was skeptical.
