Wise Words from LEFT-HANDERS: A Coloring Book for Adults (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781945939006)

Coloring as a relaxing pastime for adults has proven benefits. Beneficial, too, is the advice and wisdom of famous left-handed contributors to the arts, sciences, entertainment, and public life. This book offers both. The ready-to-color pictures are derived from a variety of paintings, drawings, folk-art, and photos. These elements have been combined and translated into pages to color that go beyond the usual children's coloring book staples of black lines around white spaces; these pages offer modeling and dimension, not mere flat two-dimensionality. Here the novice and expert colorist alike will find refreshing, renewing pleasure in putting color on paper. Stilling the mind in this way reduces stress. The prudent advice of the distinguished left-handed luminaries who are celebrated in this volume is rendered on pages that are just as attractive to color as are the pictures that illustrate that advice. Represented are athletes and statesmen, movie stars, writers, business moguls, and geniuses of all walks of life--all left-handed. Find in this book the wisdom of: Albert Einstein; Judy Garland; Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart; Queen Victoria; President Harry S. Truman; Bill Russell; Lewis Carroll; Marie Curie; Henry Ford; Ruth Bader Ginsburg; Jimi Hendrix; Eudora Welty; James Baldwin; Marilyn Monroe; Babe Ruth; Helen Keller; Cary Grant; Mohandas Gandhi; Benjamin Franklin; Oprah Winfrey; and Charlie Chaplin. Left and right-handed colorists can all enjoy this book. But it does offer something special: the pages to be colored appear on the LEFT side. Let the sage counsel of these wise left-handers, and the creativity and mindfulness of coloring, enrich your moments and your day.
