The Psychedelic Coloring Book is an aptly-named book that allows avid adult coloring enthusiasts to add in colors to intricate black-and-white psychedelic art. The surreal artwork was created by Lynnwood, Washington-based artist Alexander Williamson.
The high-quality 32 page coloring book includes black-and-white line artwork drawn from Williamson's most detailed and complex illustrations. The illustrations occupy themes of the surreal, psychedelia and pop art along with explorations of nature, animals, geometry and layering, all of which allow for endless coloring possibilities.
The Psychedelic Coloring Book is printed on high-quality, sturdy white paper. This allows people to use everything from colored pencils and markers to pastels and even paints to create their individual psychedelic masterpieces. The pages will be one-sided and robust enough to be saved and framed.
Williamson has taken to Kickstarter to raise funds for production of the book.
