Our story.
An independent studio designing premium colouring books for mindfulness, creativity, and the quiet ten minutes between everything else.
A book for the quiet ten minutes.
Zen Colour Art started during a long Ontario winter. We were tired of products that shouted, and we wanted something to put between us and a noisy day — a small ritual with our hands, no screen, no scroll.
So we made one book. Then another. Mindfulness teachers helped us tune the page densities. A local printer in Barrie helped us find the right paper. Five years on, we're still a small studio — just a few of us, every book seen through by hand.
The four things we never compromise on.
Calming compositions
Every page is built around breath — varied densities so your hand never feels rushed, and breathable margins so your eye can rest.
Premium materials
120gsm artist paper, lay-flat binding, and zero bleed-through. Marker, gel pen, or pencil — the page holds.
Made in Barrie
Designed at our studio table and printed locally in Ontario. We can walk to the press.
Built to last
Cloth-feel covers, stitched spines, and matte finishes that age beautifully. A book you'll keep on the table, not the shelf.
We're a small studio in Barrie, Ontario.
Our books ship across Canada and the United States, usually within one to two business days. For wholesale, custom, or press enquiries, drop us a line.
