Book excerpt: The world of Art Deco is waiting to be brought to life in Louisa Banks's Calm Art Deco Adult Coloring Book. There are 30 hand-drawn illustrations, featuring stylized motifs and geometric patterns, inspired by the art, design, interiors and architecture of the era. The coloring pages are single-sided and can easily be cut out. The paper is most suitable for colored pencil, crayon, and water based ink, but there is also a bonus page for testing out materials and coloring techniques.
