Creative Haven Beautiful Butterfly Designs Coloring Book

One of the most breathtaking creatures in nature, the butterfly has gone through a metamorphosis and emerged here as an abstract image of graphic design — with dazzling results! Thirty-one illustrations of winged beauties are set against a variety of patterns that are inspired by textile designs: tulips, daffodils, roses, and bamboo, as well as waves, crescents, geometric shapes, and more. Pages are perforated and printed on one side only for easy removal and display. Specially designed for experienced colorists, Beautiful Butterfly Designs and other Creative Haven® adult coloring books offer an escape to a world of inspiration and artistic fulfillment. Each title is also an effective and fun-filled way to relax and reduce stress. Previously published as Beautiful Butterfly Designs.

5 Questions with Jessica Mazurkiewicz: An Exclusive Dover Interview

Jessica Mazurkiewicz's graphic designs appear in books and magazines as well as on clothing and dinnerware — and, of course, many of Dover's bestselling coloring books. With the help of our Facebook friends, we put together a few questions for this talented artist.

1.) Your coloring and activity books are directed at a younger audience. Have you been drawing since you were little, and do you call upon your "inner child" for inspiration?

I have always loved to draw and make things with my hands. I'm the oldest of several sisters and when we were young I used to make little activity books and pages for them to color. I remember how I would wrack my brain to create something fun and interesting for them to enjoy — a very similar process takes place in my mind now, just for a much larger group of color artists.
