The Secret of Mixing Colors from Angel Liana
The Angel Liana story is composed of four different ideas and is written (intentionally) in three very different writing styles:
The main story is written in a sweet fairytale language that attracts and encourages the reader to be interested in reading the book.
(Pages: 9-11, 29-58, 84-87)
The section that the author is teaching the art of mixing colors is written in a very comprehensive but serious and technical language. (Pages: 12-28, 59-62, 66 -83)
But when dealing with loss and spirituality she uses a sensitive language that touches the depth of the reader’s spirit and takes their imagination to the higher source for support and inspiration.
(Pages: 4-5, 88-91
Praise:
“ Through the creative and sensitive writings of Rosemary Hartounian Cohen, Liana, an angel, teaches color and painting lessons by taking the young reader through a fantastical underwater world. By combining a fairy tale spiritual journey narrative with tips on how to paint, the author explores the art of mixing colors along with a wide variety of other art techniques that offer children an accessible way to learn about making art.
This exploration and discovery of artistic process is a touching and original creation of Ms. Cohen.”
Juan Bastos

“ A beautiful, spiritual, imaginative, and artistic book. It is utterly charming.”
