Summary: I Wish I Were a Kid Again...
Review: I bought this book for the line images of the designs, I use Tiffany designs in computer application. I also bought Mr. Sibbett's book "Art Nouveau Stained Glass Coloring Book" in which the designs are simpler. I was impressed with both books. Paired with a good-sized set of felt tip markers with fine points, this book is a great gift for a friend in the hospital or a grand child who has learned to "stay within the lines" to some degree. It is possible to scan these images, print them on high quality white paper, color them with the markers, then scan them again and print them on overhead transparency material. The result will have transparent colors and is beautiful put in a window.

Summary: Finally, a Coloring Book for Adults!!
Review: This is not just a coloring book... in fact when I first bought this 'book' 10 years ago, I saw it more as a craft project. Inside the cover, you will find beautiful, uncolored reproductions of Louis Comfort Tiffany's stained glass artwork on a resiliant, translucent plastic 'paper'. The designs feature birds, flowers, and trees from some of Tiffany's most famous works. Sure you could color them and leave them in the book- but why? What I did was use a little adhesive and used one design to cover the 8.5 x 11 inch windows flanking my front door. They are beautiful colored or not. I get so many compliments I have people asking how I did what I did and where they can find the book! This book is pure artistic delight! Other stained glass designs are available as well. I'm buying more.
