Colour the places you've been, or the ones you're going to.

Bold and easy coloring books for adults, one destination to a book. Every page began as a photograph I took on the road: real streets, real temples, real light. Big open areas, no fiddly detail, a colour guide for every scene.

How they're made

Photograph, page, guide. Each page is converted from one of my own photographs into clean line art with image tools, then checked by eye against the place it came from before it goes in a book. No stock images, no clip art, nothing invented.

Three panels: a photograph of the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, the same scene as a line page to colour, and the scene coloured in
1. The photograph Taken on the road, by me, with the light and the crowds of that day.
2. The page Bold outlines and open spaces, so a page finishes in one sitting whether you colour to unwind or to focus.
3. The guide Every book and pack includes the scene in colour, so you can see the place before you begin.
