In the Beginning: Coloring Creation (Majestic Expressions Inspirational Adult Coloring Books) Paperback – Coloring Book, October 1, 2015

The media could not be loaded.  This is a book of 45 lovely hand-drawn illustrations which depict the Creation as told in Genesis. The designs range from intricate and complex to easier to color ones. The artist is Erin Jons, who is an artist I have not known of before this book.The verses are taken from a number of translations of the Bible and each is a lovely interpretation of the verse (which is both written and noted within the design.) I am really impressed by these designs and I think my first one to color will be page 37, “Let there be lights...” Genesis 1:14 which shows a scene half by day and half by night.There are 45 designs and, for fun, there are a number of hidden symbols within the drawings. While there is a listing of the items, to find the answers as to where they are, you will either find them in the drawings or visit the publishers website.The designs are printed on white paper that is a nice quality but thin. The designs are printed on only one side (with back left blank.) The paper is acid-free and is not perforated but the publisher states that the pages are easy tear-outs. I assume that is from the glue binding but have not removed one as yet.All of my markers and some of my gel pens leak through the page. Not a problem, as I can put a heavyweight paper behind the page I am working on to keep the ink from messing up the rest of the book.I am really happy to see inspiration Biblical adult coloring books being made. I plan to spend many hours with this book and hope to see more in the future.

This is a cool coloring book- my only complaints are: the pages are not perforated to be easily torn out/shared and the quality of the paper could be better.Other than that- its a decent coloring book for adults or teens/preteens who want to relax and also keep scripture close to their hearts!

I like the illustrative nature of this book, and that it could be used by the whole family. The friend I gave it to loved it, especially that her husband would probably do it with her since the pages aren't all overly floral and feminine. This isn't my favorite out of the three I've purchased, but it's a close second runner-up.

Bought these items for my wife and she say's she loves them. Some have been bought several times so far.

This is a lovely adult coloring book. Purchased as a gift, and she loves it!

Mine came with a diffrent cover, glad to see more interior photos to verify its the same. The object purchased should always match the one photoed in the ad. But it still makes a nice gift!

I wish the pictures were more true to life/more scriptures

Already in love with this book! Relaxing and fulfilling.
