About Us

The Kook Origin Story

It all started with a board, a beach, and a bunch of bros who had a passion for art as deep as the ocean. We were chasing waves by day and sketching our hearts out by night, dreaming of combining our two loves into something totally tubular.

Born from a bonfire jam sesh, under the glow of a full moon, Koloring Kooks paddled out from the dreamy shores of Imagination Land. Our mission? To carve up the sickest, most tubular coloring books this side of the big blue.
