This is an amazing coloring book, packed with challenging geometric abstract designs. Each page is dedicated to one design, printed on one side, so you wont have to make any sacrifices while using markers that may bleed through to the next page. Bright white paper with a smooth texture. All of the designs fit together very nicely too, without there being any repetition. I'm impressed every time I open it, just to look through it and choose my next coloring activity. For me, coloring is a meditative and relaxing process, and this book is perfect for that. Do use sharp colored pencils, and fine point markers. I really like the effect of opaque gel pens on top of markers. Sharpie markers are excellent, but use an extra sheet of paper between designs, just in case you're heavy handed like I am, and tend to color hard. This book is a must have for any coloring enthusiast looking for fresh designs and a challenge.
