Teaching Artist Bill Colrus, a longtime illustrator, cartoonist, and graphic designer, is known for his versatility and fondness for trying new approaches. After retiring from the commercial art world and turning his hand to fine art, the same passion for exploration prevailed. During his many years in illustration and design, he also taught for 33 years, adjunct faculty, at the Paier College of Art. After a brief, very brief, retirement, Colrus decided to return to teaching, independent of the college where he would have free reign to implement strictly his own philosophy and perspectives.

Though a latecomer to fine art, Colrus’ work – originals and prints – already hang on many walls, here and outside the area. Coming with his new-found pursuit have been many awards, including Best in Shows.
