Big Mystery About Us Revealed!...

...YesColoring was formed for Coloring Buddy Mike's cousin who wanted coloring pages that are hard to color!

Okay, it's not that big of a mystery. I'm just saying...

I, Coloring Buddy Mike, could not find any difficult printables in the bookstores or on the internet.

There are plenty of easy coloring books for small and preschool kids, but none for preteen boys and girls.

Many kids lose interest in making their own drawings or do not develop their artistic skills.

They still have the pleasure of using crayons, colored pencils, pens, and markers. (Paint by Number is still popular even with grownups!)

That is why YesColoring takes coloring pages to the next level - Bold 'n Bossy!

About Us In the Beginning

The first coloring pages I created were of animals and dinosaurs. Boring! The boy wanted super cars, tractors, big rig trucks and such like. These were a hit.

His friends asked for coloring sheets of army soldiers, ships, cartoon characters, and sports stuff. I had to get busy!

I made a mistake by leaving shadows - gray tones - on a couple of the images. That was the BEST mistake I ever made! They were a bigger hit! The children loved it!

The most in demand coloring pages are with details and shadows of "real stuff"!
YesColoring is the only website where you will find them!

(You will find our printables on other websites. You know what happened don't you? They were pirated! But, forget about'em. Follow our name or logo on the coloring paper and start coming over here.)

The boys' girl buddies asked for coloring pages.
I created coloring sheets of flowers, Valentine's Day, and girls' sports.

But, I did not know enough about the multitude of girls' interests to meet their demands. So I stick to my strong suit - masculine art work.

Coloring Page Styles

There is a mixture of styles to the coloring pages.

Some are hand drawn; others are created with professional art graphics software.

Some of the pictures are created by other artists to whom we give credit.

Also, you will notice all the coloring pictures are not too fancy, but rugged! The kids like realism and differences.

Academic Background

My art education is in fine arts and commercial photography.

I taught photography to grade school art students. The same principles of color, light, perspective and shadows I taught them I apply to these illustrations.
