Colouring India
Adult colouring books
A set of 4 Indian books - Gond art from Madhya Pradesh, Madhubani from Bihar, Rangoli patterns, and Indian textile motifs.
I worked closely with Gond artist, Subhash Vyam on the Gond book and Navin Kumar Jha on the Madhubani book to come up with a range of patterns that would be fun to colour in and yet stay true to the original art form. The patterns for the other two books were sourced widely from the internet, wooden printing blocks and actual rangoli patterns.
