About Us

Welcome to Zee Cee Art, where bold imagination meets nerdy enthusiasm and a whole lot of creative chaos—in the best way possible.

At the heart of it all is Z. Cochran, an Oakland-born artist who brings characters, color, and pop-culture vibes to life through a fusion of hand sketching and digital magic. His art is expressive, vibrant, and unapologetically joyful, often inspired by the movies, books, and stories that shaped him. Whether he’s exploring themes of identity, community, or pure fan-fueled fun, Z’s pieces always have something to say (and they say it loudly).

Z. Cochran, was greatly influenced by the legendary Morrie Turner, creator of Wee Pals.  In 2013, he had an opportunity to meet Morrie at a local comic convention.  They talked about their love of comic art and Morrie encouraged him to pursue his passion.  

 

In 2015 he founded Zee Cee Art because he found himself constantly searching for diverse comic art and collectibles.  Ultimately he decided to create the art he was searching for. 

But Zee Cee Art is a team sport.
Z’s wife—resident bookworm, podcast host of Fables, Fangirls, and Fiction, and maker of all things crafty—transforms his artwork into everyday treasures. From handmade coasters featuring his illustrations to bookmarks, bookish jewelry, and décor, she brings story-loving flair to the shop. Together, they blend visual art and literary passion into a joyful, creative partnership.

Zee Cee Art is where their worlds collide: art meets books, sketch meets digital, and fandom meets handmade fun. Thanks for joining the adventure!
