Dozens Of Doodles

By Posted on

When in life does anything stay exactly within the lines?
Taro Gomi perfectly captures that carefree sentiment with their
whimsical coloring books that invite readers to scribble, scrawl, doodle &
dream all day long! — 

These artsy coloring books go far beyond presenting a
grey-scale image to fill in – with the exciting negative space they leave and
their intriguing graphics, these bold books give everyone’s inner artist (kids and parents alike) room to truly create, as well as color! Check out the
interpretive “Doodle” and “Squiggle” coloring books, as well as the 2012 “Daily
Doodle” calendar and the newly released “Scribble It” postcard set for a
seemingly infinite canvas of inspirational starter scenes to get the creative
juices flowing.

$9.95 – $19.99, chroniclebooks.com/tarogomi
