Nocturnes | Mysteria | When Dragons Dream Coloring Books Review

Russian illustrator, Anastasia Elly Koldareva is able to turn her hand to drawing a number of subjects from cute mermaids and dragons to beautiful women and portraits.

Each of her books features a slightly different style of art as well as subject matter which makes it interesting and intriguing.

For one reason or another, I haven’t reviewed all the coloring books that I own by Anastasia so I am doing that in one hit today.
