by Daniel Mitsui (Designer), Elizabeth Scalia (Foreword)
Experience spiritual calm with the first adult colouring book to focus on the Rosary as you colour and reflect on the traditional Catholic prayer. Renowned artist Daniel Mitsui provides exquisitely detailed illustrations of the Glorious, Joyful, and Sorrowful Mysteries, suitable for meditative colouring and for reflecting on the lives of Jesus and the Blessed Mother. Just as repetition of the Hail Mary during the Rosary can create a contemplative awareness of its mysteries, careful attention to colouring these captivating illustrations can open your heart to a deeper awareness of the Rosary's truths. This unique colouring book contains thirty illustrations -- fifteen full-page drawings of the mysteries of the Rosary, each one beautifully bordered by traditional images of animals and flowers; twelve vignettes featuring prophets, evangelists, and Fathers of the Church; and three larger drawings with the artist's commentary. It also contains descriptive copy written by the author for the three sets of Mysteries.
