Mandala coloring books for grown-ups
Every mandala in these books is drawn by hand — no software, no clip art, no filling a page with the same stamped shape forty times. That's why the sections aren't perfectly identical, and why they're satisfying to color.
The drawings are done. What's left is turning them into books: sizing the pages, laying them out, proofing, and finding paper that takes a pen without bleeding. That part takes a while, and rushing it shows.
What's inside
Made to actually be used
Drawn by hand
Each mandala is drawn rather than generated, so the symmetry breathes a little instead of looking machine-stamped.
Printed single-sided
One design per sheet, blank on the back. Markers can't ruin the page underneath, and finished pages tear out cleanly for framing.
A range of detail
Some pages are open and forgiving for an evening off. Others are dense enough to disappear into for a week.
The waitlist
Hear when the first book is ready
There isn't a date yet and I'd rather not invent one. Leave your email and you'll hear the day the first book is available — before it goes anywhere else.
No spam, and nothing about plants unless you asked for that separately. See the privacy note for what happens to your address.
Free to print
Free mandala pages
The same drawings that go into the books. Print one, color it, and see whether the detail level suits you — no waiting and no catch.
Questions
About the books
When will the books be available?
No date yet, and I won't guess at one. The mandalas are drawn — what's left is the book-making part: page sizes, layout, proofs, and paper that doesn't bleed. The waitlist is where the date gets announced first.
Are the mandalas really hand-drawn?
Yes. Every one is drawn by hand rather than generated or built from repeated clip art. If you compare opposite segments closely you'll spot tiny differences — that's a hand, not a bug.
What should I color them with?
Colored pencils and fine-tip pens give the most control in the small sections, which is where mandalas live or die. Alcohol markers bleed through most coloring-book paper, so slide a scrap sheet behind your page if you use them.
Are the pages printed on both sides?
No — single-sided, so nothing bleeds through onto a design you haven't colored yet, and you can tear a finished page out to frame it.
Are these suitable for kids?
Older kids who enjoy fine detail tend to love them. Younger children usually find the small sections frustrating — the simpler pages are the place to start.
Can I sell or post pictures of pages I've colored?
Post them anywhere you like, and please tag me — I love seeing them. Selling copies of the pages themselves isn't something I can allow, since the drawings are my work.
