About ReallyColor

Welcome to ReallyColor! We are a Chicago-based business, which has developed patented technology that allows you to convert your own real world photos into printable coloring book pages. You can interact with a ReallyColoring Page on the web, your tablet or smartphone, and share online with family and friends. The idea for ReallyColor was sparked during a Friday night pizza party while our CEO, Dieter Marlovics, watched his daughter use her crayons and markers on tables, chairs, floors, clothes, walls, his hair, her friend's dog (but he got away), her shoes, and then explaining how she simply wanted to change the color of...well...everything! Always the rascal, she then pretended to start drawing on the wall, and Dieter dove in head first to stop her. Not wanting to stifle her artistic development, though, he took a picture of the wall, printed it out, and told her that she could go ahead and draw on the wall, but only on the piece of paper with the printed image. Dieter thought to himself how cool it would be for her to be able to color real things instead of the constant barrage of fictional cartoon characters. There were a few nervous sleepless nights spent staring at the ceiling, which ended in the morning with his laughing little girl jumping on him cannon ball style...Dieter wasn't laughing. He decided to build a prototype to see if coloring real photos could even be done well enough for at least his daughter and her friends to have fun with. The rest, as they say, is history.
