"Best Loved Flowers in Grayscale" is truly unique in the vast sea of Adult coloring books. Unlike most coloring books, Kate's book is a collection of images from her original paintings; they are not clip art or overly familiar images long in public domain. This book is also unique in that each coloring image is accompanied by a meditation on its opposing page. In these floral meditations, Kate shares how the soulful act of creating is in itself a meditation, during the actual painting and long after. she invites the colorist to think about their work in the same way to benefit fully from the act of creating their own version of Kate's images. Kate O'Connor-Hoekstra is known for her original romantic floral paintings, done in a realistic style with vibrant hues and values. As a result of her meditative process, they deliver great emotional impact. One viewer has said, "They are the kind of paintings that make you smile". The variety of hues and values of Kate's original paintings are perfectly captured in the range of values the grayscale images. Thus, this coloring book allows colorists to produce artwork that preserves the dramatic effects of the original painting, while they are free to choose colors that may be different from Kate''s. This range of values, available in grayscale images, is what intermediate to advanced colorists seek in order to create depth in their work. Another unique feature of the book is the colorist's access to Kate's website where the original paintings can be seen, and perhaps provide some inspiration!
