Art Masterpieces to Color: 60 Great Paintings from Botticelli to Picasso (Dover Colouring Books) Review
I have several of the adult coloring books, from sealife to flowers to several of the famous artist series, including Van Gogh, the Impressionists, Monet, etc. I just recieved this book and am impressed that it is two or three times the size of all of the other books, making it a good value. Each page has a picture on one side and is blank on the other side, which means that one can make good use of each picture, without impressions from coloring one side going through to the other side. There were a few pictures that were duplicates from some of my other coloring books, but only a very few.

Mexican Tiles: Color, Style, Design Review
I’m in the process of building on the Maya Riviera so this isn’t a book read for fun. This is real research looking for real ideas. Building in Spanish Colonial style can’t be done without some incorporation of Mexican Tiles. This book is basically 90% pictures and 10% background and history of Mexican Tiles. The background write-up is excellent and gives good history of Talavera and Talavera-Style Tiles. Then it’s on to different uses, floors, kitchens, bathrooms, walls and stairs, and patios and gardens.
I’m very simple in the colors I like in homes so these tiles can be “over the top”. This book has a lot of these type pictures. It has more tile usage than I’ve ever seen on exteriors. The kitchen section has huge tile usage but I’ve seen more attractive usage in other books.
Overall, I did not get any ideas I will definitely use but I did get a different perspective on tile usage. There are definitely pictures I will take back to discuss with my architect and designer which may be incorporated. This book can be consumed in an hour. But it may take many hours of review going over the pictures again and again.
