Thanks Lea. I’m waiting for my book to be delivered. Like you I wish there were more of the white rabbit, plus I’d have loved a picture with caterpillar, he always fascinated me. Still super excited to be getting this as I’ve been an Alice in Wonderland fan since I was a little girl.
Alice is the best .. I've loved her since I was little too (I still think she's real!). I wish there were some real white rabbits (ie fluffy and cute) but the thing I love about JBG is her uniqueness so I guess I can't have it both ways :( Not that many of the caterpillar either ...I know how to solve this. JBG needs to do an Alice Volume 2 :) Happy coloring x
She certainly has done her own thing with this version of Alice in Wonderland. I think that's why some people either love it or hate it lol. It's more of Alice in whatever situation JBG chooses rather than the chronological sequence and story of Alice in Wonderland. Hope you love coloring your new Alice in Wonderland coloring book! x
Thank you so much for showing this, Lea! I'm off straight away to get a copy. Btw, being Dutch, it's nice to see how much influence the old Dutch masters had on her - lovely surprise.
The paintings that were included featuring Alice and the masters was a surprise for me as well. Alice seems to fit so well into the art world in her own JBG wonderland. Hope you enjoy your book! Happy coloring x
Not 100% crazy about a WHOLE book -55 pages- of Alice, would have much prefered a mix of princesses, but... OMG OMG OMG, it's a new JBG book!! Also, am i the only one who find that most of the backgrounds are hard to read??
Thank you so much for the review!!!! I love this book! Jasmine’s artwork is so different and unique!!! At bookdepository has two publishers for this book! Do you know if the paper of the USA edition by Llewellyn Publications is the same as the blueangel ?
Jasmine's books are printed in Australia and then distributed so unless I am really, really wrong - the paper is the same just the distributor is different. The link to buy from Book Depository is below the video. Hope you enjoy the book! Happy coloring x
Coloring Queen Thank you very much for replying! I have seen the link but I asked you about the paper because the book from Llewellyn Publications dispatch from UK and not from Australia so it will come to my country sooner!! Unfortunately now is currently unavailable so I’ll probably go for the one in your link! Thank you so much for your help and happy colouring to you too😀
Oh God I nearly fainted when I seen this one my video suggestions!!! I absolutely cannot wait. I'm a huge Alice in Wonderland fan and even bigger Jasmine fan!
Hi Lea, wel i think that book would of be much more the real Alice in Wonderland with cute Bunnies and the way she decided to created this book disapointed myself a bit so i'm Glad you always do Fantastic reviews because i will not buy this one LOL! I'll wait for the one i'm shure i will Adore in sept. hi, hi, and have you heard about Fabiana Attanasio her new book sounds great but i'm so curious to know what's in there because when she do created a Book that way whe never know if it will be like the one Daria Songs have created the Manoir anyway i think i will have to wait to discover this book but so excited Big Hugs to millie even if she really bite your hands bad Girl lol $ Charlie as well xxx Thank You so much for another great review Lee xxOx
It's certainly not the traditional Alice book but Jasmine doesn't really do that. Luckily you can always get an idea of what might be in her books by looking at her existing artwork which the coloring pages are based on. I would have liked a lot more bunnies ...but then again ..there will never be enough bunnies for me! I hope you get your book in September .....I can't wait either! I don't know whether I should get another Fabiana book ...I haven't colored in any of the others yet lol! Milly has been very naughty lately ...judging by the amount of scratches I have haha. I find it hard to get mad at her though because she is a beautiful little girl. Charlie is always good and absolutely adorable so I'll give him his hug first. I'll wait til Milly is in a good mood to give her your hug ha ha. Happy coloring x
Are the paper pages in her books of good enough quality to use watercolour pencils? I'm always looking for colouring books that are. You know, books that don't have flimsy paper.
The paper in Jasmine's books is 150gsm which is sturdy. It is not watercolor paper but if you do not use a lot of water it shouldn't pill. Happy coloring x
One needs to remember, Jasmine Becket-Griffith "DID NOT" draw any of this illustrations. Blue Angles Publications Graphic Artists Digitally composed these illustrations from Jasmine's Original Art Work.
I know you try to show the whole open book pages but the camera angle and view is just too far from the page. Detail is hard to see and I don't have vision problems. The full page option makes everything blurry. Disappointed in the views.
