Lost Ocean
Lost Ocean: An Inky Adventure and Coloring Book | Johanna Basford
14 posts | 7 read | 5 to read
From the creator of the worldwide bestsellers Secret Garden and Enchanted Forest, a beautiful new adult coloring book that takes you on a magical journey beneath the waves With this coloring book for adults, Johanna Basford invites color-inners of all ages to discover an enchanting underwater world hidden in the depths of the sea. Through intricate pen and ink illustrations to complete, color, and embellish, readers will meet shoals of exotic fish, curious octopuses, and delicately penned seahorses. Visit coral reefs and barnacle-studded shipwrecks, discover intricate shells and pirate treasure. Secret Garden and Enchanted Forest fans and newcomers alike will welcome this creative journey into an inky new world. For Lost Ocean, Johanna picked a crisp ivory paper that accentuates and complements your chosen color palette. The smooth, untextured pages allow for beautiful blending or gradient techniques with colored pencils or are perfect for pens, allowing the nib to glide evenly over the surface without feathering.

So I feel like being opposites McGee, and believe this show should be made into a book series. I think with enough detail and information I could really dive in! Find some much needed answers that I think the show still lacked. #seasonsreadings2016 #muchlove #definitionoflost #smokemonster #iwannareadtheshow

Megabooks Agreed!! 8y

My favorite coloring book. Is also someone's favorite perch. Which makes this difficult.
(But seriously, this coloring book is just lovely)
