Doc Colour

Doc Colour graduated from SJSU with a B.A. in Graphic Design in '92: emphasizing in Illustration. During this time, he created his unique signature style of illustrating bold b&w images which he calls ZOPS. These illustrations soon became a self-titled comic panel published in his school newspaper. The panel combined Doc's illustrations and quirky rhymes with an enlightening moral at the end.

As his interest for rhyming and illustrating grew, so did his passion for writing children’s books, which perfectly combine his love for words, rhyming, illustrating, graphic design, and telling unusual stories. You will find the experience of reading one of Doc's books to be unlike any other.
