No A.I.—Just me!
These pages weren’t whipped up by a robot. Every illustration is hand-drawn by a real human (hi, that's me!) who’s wandered the trails, peeked into the buildings, and fallen in love with the views. These aren’t generic images—they’re personal, thoughtful, and made with the kind of care no algorithm can replicate. It’s like a little piece of my sketchbook, just for you.
Crisp lines, clean prints
Each sketch is digitally traced to create smooth, high-quality vector lines while preserving the warmth and character of a hand-drawn image.
The result gives you crisp, clean lines that are satisfying to colour.
Printed on bright white paper, every page feels fresh to the touch—smooth under your fingers, ready for pencil crayons or markers.
The Illustrator
Rachel Pletz is an illustrator, designer, and the creative force behind Pletz Kreativ, where history meets art in the form of beautifully hand-drawn colouring books.
Creativity thrives in unexpected places!
Celebrating 10 years cancer-free (hodgkins lymphoma) and navigating life as an autistic mother of two, she appreciates the value of a work schedule that flows with life’s unpredictability.
With a desire to balance health obstacles, family life, and the freedom to create, explore, and enjoy the little things in life, she was inspired to launch her own illustrative adventure.
Her work captures the charm of historical landmarks, the beauty of adventure, and the joy of colouring outside the lines. With each book, she invites readers to explore, create, and see the world through a different lens—one that values curiosity, resilience, and the occasional crayon outside the margins.
She shares her journey—with all its bumps, detours, and surprises—in hopes that others find a bit of comfort and inspiration in knowing that even a series of imperfect steps can lead us exactly where we need to be…
