Makino Tomitaro no Shokubutsuga de Tanoshimu Otona no Shiki Nurie(Japanese)

An adult coloring book made from the botanical drawings of Tomitaro Makino, a botanist of the Meiji era who spent a lifetime finding and naming plants and produced many illustrated plant guides. Makino is also the model for the main character of the TV drama series Ranman. The book takes 45 plant drawings from Makino's guides and arranges them by season. Spring includes Somei Yoshino cherry, lilac and peach blossoms. Summer has hydrangea, lilies and sunflowers. Fall has cosmos, chrysanthemum and pomegranate, and winter has camellia, peony and poinsettia. Part 1 covers the basics: the tools you need, color and coloring basics, techniques to try, and how to color petals, leaves and stems. Part 2 introduces Makino's botanical art, and Part 3 holds the seasonal coloring pages. A coloring Q&A closes the book.

Translated from the Japanese original.
