" "The back cover of this book shows the original colored versions of the drawings, to assist those who wish to render the colors accurately. " "But please enjoy coloring these flowers any way you want. They are calling out for your skilled coloring hand to breathe new life into them!: ) " "Once colored, the images can be framed as your own original works of art! )
