Jane Foster's Colouring Book

Book excerpt: Acclaimed textile designer and illustrator Jane Foster has created the perfect collection of patterns and design for every colouring-in enthusiast (young and old) in this, her first, colouring book. Jane’s striking illustration style and bold, happy designs are strongly influenced by Scandinavian design of the 50s and 60s and artists such as Dick Bruna and Alain Gree. Jane explains how she uses and manipulates colour in her day-to-day work to bring her bold and beautiful designs to life. Drawing upon the natural world as her source of inspiration for this beautiful book Jane has created a lively collection of over 50 birds and animals, flowers and fauna that will inspire everyone to pick up a pencil or pen and get colouring in.
