"Symbols are the imaginative signposts of life." -- Margot Asquith.
Ancient symbols share wisdom, tell stories, decorate, protect, and inspire. We are fascinated by them and drawn to them--and now we can color them. Whether representing messages about daily life, evoking an emotion, or even conjuring up something magical, the images in this book beckon to any would-be artist. They are inspired from actual metal works, textiles, drawings, historical records and evidence left behind from cultures past. Many of the ancient designs actually served as meditative tools, so the act of coloring in these symbols may offer a double dose of calm as the act of coloring invites us to be present in the moment.

Cher's Story behind this book.
I wanted to create a book that would not only introduce ideas and symbols from around the world, but a book that invites the reader/colorists to find a calm place to explore deeper, perhaps contemplate the amazing storytelling features shared throughout time and place via pictures. It is my hope the holder of this book will feel a sense of curiosity, awe, appreciation and wonder about the ever-evolving experience in our shared humanity.
