The Kokomo Post Christmas Coloring Contest
Get ready for some holiday fun as The Kokomo Post presents an exciting online coloring contest designed for families! We've collaborated with the talented local artist Katie Tharp to bring you a festive coloring illustration your kids can transform into their very own masterpieces.
Born and raised in Kokomo, Katie has had a passion for art since she could hold a pencil. A mother of two and a devoted wife, Tharp has spent the last three years in the digital art realm, creating everything from digital artwork to drawings and paintings.
“I love art and creating, and I love kids and seeing their faces light up at fun coloring pages. My son is just now at the age where he is starting to LOVE art, and he really enjoyed the first Kokomo Post coloring page, so that just felt so special to be asked to create the next one,” said Tharp.
Tharp said one of the best things about being an artist is getting to share the end product, and she cannot wait to see what our littlest artists come up with.
“Kids have such vivid, beautiful, and fun imaginations. I am so excited to see what everyone creates,” she said.
Here’s how to enter:
Print out the coloring page, and let your kids unleash their creativity through coloring and decorating.
