Types of adult coloring

1. Zen and anti-stress
Inspired by nature or completely surreal, these drawings differ from mandalas because they are not concentrated on a single point. It is often repeated patterns, coloring style known for its soothing properties.
Search the overall harmony of your coloring rather than focusing on each element individually, try to balance the colors so that they are a reflection of your emotions of the moment.


2. Mandalas
“Mandala” is a Sanskrit word which means a circle, and metaphorically a universe, environment or community.

For centuries, in many cultures (eg Tibet), the Mandala is used as a tool to facilitate meditation. Those suggested here are of various styles and levels of difficulty, ranging from complex to complex !

3. Zentangle
This new form of creative art will appeal both to those who wish to color original drawings, and also those who prefer to design their own works.
Many tutorials and books for learning the basics of Zentangle are available, to help those who want to make their own designs.

4. Doodle Art
Doodle Art is accessible to all ! Let your mind wander … Only a pencil and a notebook … You can really make great artwork, just by Doodling ! It can be abstract shapes or characters, objets, you’re totally free.

5. Psychedelic
The Psychedelic movement emerged in the mid 60’s, in parallel to the hippie movement. The term itself dates from the 50’s, following an exchange between psychiatrist H. Osmond and the writer Aldous Huxley.
This artistic movement corresponds with the emergence of psychotropic hallucinogens, such as LSD. It is also strongly linked to the success of several “psychedelic rock” singers and bands (Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Pink Floyd …).
From an artistic point of view, this movement is characterized by drawings with sinuous curves and bright colors.
