Color Penn State - A Penn State Coloring Book

Penn State Coloring Book Cover: Color Penn State

It was November and the Penn State Football team had just beaten Michigan State to clinch the Big Ten East Title. This team was exciting to watch and I was overflowing with school spirit. I looked for a Penn State coloring book for myself and my two children, but was surprised that there wasn’t one on the market. I knew I could draw the pictures - I graduated in Art Education from Penn State in 1994 - but I was out of my element when it came to publishing, licensing, and marketing. I ended up partnering with Mascot Books, a publishing company who helps authors through the process. I’m really excited about the release of this book. I hope you like it too!

About the Book

I use a mixture of complicated and simple designs in my books because as an adult, I still love to color as much as my children. I try to capture the unique beauty of the campus as well iconic images associated with the school. I do each drawing by hand so it takes a few months to complete the roughly 30 drawings I need for a book. The pages are double sided but I chose a slightly thicker paper that water-based markers will not bleed through. The double sided pages keep the cost down for the buyer.
