Description:
This is a coloring book about the Surrealism Movement.
Brief description: We are an art collective deeply enamored with seminal art movements, dystopian literature, body art, and horror. Every creation is crafted with unconventional beauty in mind and with the intent not only to entertain but to educate as well. Most of our creations have extensive research and text and/or quotes along with our illustrations. We do that so that when you buy our books, you also find something to be inspired by, and hopefully, have this gorgeous feeling you learned something new while you are coloring them. We take coloring very seriously... but honestly, you don't have to. You should just enjoy the act of coloring.We celebrate the beauty of Literature, the great Artistic Movements that changed the world, and the understated elegance found in body art as well as classic literature, dystopian creations, and the Arts. These are the things we grew up drawing, researching, and being inspired by. Some of our authors are working on transforming literature into illustrations, especially the dystopia of George Orwell, H.G. Wells, Jules Verne, Edgar Allan Poe, and H.P. Lovecraft among others. All the authors we loved growing up and now we have the opportunity to share them with you. We do the same with the Art Movements that have inspired us. As of now, we have Surrealism, Cubism, Abstract, Zen Art, Pop Art, Conceptual Art and Art Nouveau. We are constantly increasing our collection on this front. As our collections grow, so do the quality of our books and the art we are involved in. The Collective now is comprised of 4 different artists spread around the globe: Tokyo, London, NY, and Brazil. Each one brings a new perspective to the collective, with a unique brush to each artist´s individuality. We work across various mediums, including novels, art books, coloring books, and visual installations.

Wow...I was blown away at the coloring pages!!!
The pages within are absolutely stunning. Very detailed and a great way to just get lost in yourself coloring these magnificent images. Not only are the images themselves awesome, but you also get a chance to learn more about the history as well as some of the artists in the Surrealistic art movement. Keep up the great work - Joseph Brennan - 5 Stars
This book is gorgeous.
I am blown away by how stunning this book is. The illustrations are gorgeous. I'm now a huge fan of the Gargoyle Collective, and I can't wait to check out their other titles. I'll be buying another copy of this one for my mother, who's an Art teacher. I just know she'll love it. Amber Gulley - 5 Stars

It has an educational aspect; alongside the intricate illustrations, there are thoughtful quotes and explanations that delve into the Surrealist Manifesto and the groundbreaking ideas that shaped the movement. It enhanced my coloring experience but also expanded my knowledge and appreciation for Surrealism. The variety of designs in this book is truly impressive.
