The Family Behind My Colorful World
We turned our own family photos into coloring pages — and watched our son light up. Now we help thousands of families do the same.
Our Story
My Colorful World was founded by Salo and Gabriela Sterental in Miami, Florida — a husband-and-wife team who created their first personalized coloring book for their son and built a company around it.
When their son pointed at every page saying "That's me! That's Abuela!" — they knew other families deserved that moment too. What started at the kitchen table grew into a business built on one belief: the best gifts aren't the most expensive ones — they're the ones that make someone feel seen.
We're raising two kids in Miami who love coloring, creating, and making a mess of the dining table with crayons. That energy drives everything we build.
Why We Built This (And Why We're the Right Team to Do It)
This isn't our first rodeo. Before My Colorful World, Salo built a 7-figure business at the intersection of advertising and AI technology — understanding how to reach the right people with the right message at exactly the right moment.
Our families come from entrepreneurial backgrounds with over a decade of experience selling children's products, so we know what parents actually want (and what kids will actually use more than once).
Personalized coloring books from AI-generated art? That's the exact crossroads of everything we know: building technology that creates something personal, marketing products that families genuinely love, and running a brand that people trust with their most meaningful moments.
We didn't stumble into this space — we were built for it.
Our Technology: AI That Actually Recognizes Faces
AI Built for Faces — Our AI preserves facial recognition so kids point and say "That's me!" Most photo-to-coloring services run a generic filter. We built technology specifically to maintain the likeness that makes each page personal.
Human Eyes on Every Page — A real designer reviews every single page before printing. AI does the transformation, humans ensure the quality. No page ships without a human sign-off.
Printed to Keep — Thick, lay-flat paper and professional printing that lasts for years. Not flimsy print-on-demand quality — real books families keep on the shelf.
It's the difference between a coloring page you look at and one youactually want to color. That balance — face accuracy meets coloring fun — is what sets My Colorful World apart from every other service on the market.

Frequently Asked Questions
We're a real family business — not a print-on-demand factory. Every book gets custom AI processing built specifically for face recognizability, then a human designer reviews every single page before printing on premium lay-flat paper. Most personalized gift companies slap your photo on a mug. We turn your memories into art you can color together.

My Colorful World was founded by Salo and Gabriela Sterental — a husband-and-wife team in Miami, Florida. It started when they turned family photos into coloring pages for their son. He didn't just color them — he recognized himself, his grandparents, his dog. They realized every family deserves that moment. Before MCW, Salo built a 7-figure business at the intersection of advertising and AI technology.
