Four New Mermaid & Merman coloring pages

Hello, my name is Robin Lyman.  I am a retired science teacher.

I set up this free coloring pages blog a few years ago. 

All the drawings were done by me... except for a few done by a grandniece and grandnephew. 

There are around 3,000 drawings that can be printed to color. 

I have not posted in several days due to health issues. 

Today I am starting to post some new Merpeople coloring pages.  

This might take a couple of days to post all four... and maybe 5.

Mermaid & Merman in Love

.  

Yes, there ARE both female and male Merpeople.  And Merepople are found in every ocean of the world.  Plus Merpeople are different sizes, with differing skin and hair colors.  Specific types of Merpeople have some particular traits similar to their chosen form of ocean life.  In fact, there are many different types of Merpeople.  Some are friendly with one type of sea life and other Merpeople are friendly with another type of ocean animal.  Below are some drawings of some specific types of Merpeople.  

Young Shark Merpeople

Although you usually see Mermaids and Mermen drawn with horizontal tails... this is not always the case.  Shark Merpeople actually tend to have a tail fluke that is similar to the asymmetrical tail of sharks.  But Shark Merpoeple have verticle tails.  Notice that these two Merpeople are youths.  They are not adults.  Yet, being Shark Merpeople, they are not afraid at all to swim with Reef Sharks and Great White Sharks.  By the way, the sharks in the drawing are also juveniles. The sharks are not full-sized adults.  There are two reef sharks and one Great White shark.  

Mother & Child Seal Mermaids with Harbor Seals

These Harbor Seals include a pup, an older juvenile, and an adult.  The Mermaids are a mother and her child.  They also are Mermaids with verticle tails.  

Spotted Mermaid on Patrol 

You have probably noticed that all these Merpeople are the type that have verticle tail flukes. This Mermaid is a Spotted Mermaid.  She is on patrol keeping the sea safe for her people.  Her trident is actually a type of wand that Merpeople often carry.

NOTE:  Normally to get to the printable version of these drawings just click on the button labeled "Fantasy, Myths, and Circus."  Then, if you are accessing this in June 2024 just scroll down to the bottom of the list.  HOWEVER... something is wrong right now so for one of the drawings you will need to click on the word "null."
