Readers will be introduced to the many figures once believed to populate Mount Olympus as well as related concepts and facts about the Greek mythological tradition.

From the Artist: As an artist, color is a thing of magic in my life. Color creates shapes, forms, and feelings in the artworks I paint. Laying color onto a blank page is when I feel closest to true magic, when I feel happiest and most relaxed, and it's through what I create that I share my love of magic with the world. Through my coloring books I want to share that same magic with you. The artworks in my books are based on my completed paintings, which I have painted over the last ten years as a professional artist. I have created the coloring designs to be intricate and detailed but still fun and accessible. There is something for lovers of meditative detail while simple enough to not be overwhelming for younger colorists. When designing my books I decided to print them with two copies of each design, because I know as an artist there are always so many possibilities! I wanted to give everybody the chance of a do-over with every design, because I also know mistakes can happen, and even the fear of mistakes can hamper creativity. I want you to be able to create without fear! Try a different medium, or a different color scheme. The double pages are also a chance to share the magic with a friend, child, parent, sibling. Because sharing your creativity and joy of color is the best magic of all.

"Man Know Thyself."Did you know that the Gods and Goddesses of ancient Ethiopia, Egypt, "Middle East," India, and Asia were Black? What is God? What color is God? What is the substance of God? Does it matter what color God is? Are the images, and symbols of a White God death to us? What is the Self? What does Self and God share in common? How is God, Self, and Ancestors related? To know the Self involves knowing God. We must obtain knowledge of Self. The Self is the life force, and it is not an isolated event captured within an impenetrable physical body. The Self is rather, an extensive spiritual entity that permeates each of us, and back to our first ancestors. The circle of Self that unites us with one another; to our ancestors, and God has been disconnected. consequently, we have become estranged from our essence (God). We must find continuity again. The information and suggestions in this book are intended to motivate and point out one of the roads Black people can travel towards becoming what God intended them to be; that is, unique and personal manifestations of God in this splintered and oppressive world.
