Two Healer Fairies

 This is my free coloring pages blog.  

There are over 3000 free coloring pages for you to print and color...

or for kids to color.  Have fun!  

Today's two new drawings are of Healer Fairies.


Addia the Healer Fairy gathering Watercress

This is Addia a kind and beautiful Healer Fairy.  The Fairies know of many medicinal and nutritional uses of watercress so she is out gathering some.  She prepares it for soups, salads, smoothies, sandwiches, and even as a garnish.  

Addia also knows the medicinal properties of watercress which are lowering blood pressure, lowering glucose levels.  Watercress has also been used to treat coughing and bronchitis.  Fairy Healers know that watercress is loaded with antioxidants and therefore they use it to treat conditions like arthritis.  Although Faires rarely get degenerative diseases like arthritis, they often change into mortal form and in disguise work as healers, herbologists, nurses, doctors, etc. in the mortal world.  

Fairies can change size up to and even surpass mortal size.  Their natural height is around 5 inches or so.  This is what they do to be in disguise among us mortals.  They also can magically internalize their wings so they truly LOOK mortal - albiet very beautiful or handsome mortal.  But they are still a Fairy.  And yes, there are Male Fairies.  

I need to add that Addia is in mortal size to gather watercress.  She is wading in the stream.  She can fly from site to site where the watercress is growing thick and there she will harvest SOME of it.  She is careful to not overharvest so that the plant can stay alive and continue to produce.  

Watercress is found in many parts of the world.  It usually grows in shallow streams but it has been to also grow in deeper waters.  Some people put it in their backyard ponds for it to oxygenate the water for fish.  


Talinee the Healer Fairy in a Willow Tree


This Fairy is named Talinee.  She is also a Healer Fairy who is also beautiful yet kind and caring.  True beauty is on the inside.  AND healers - in the mortal world or in the Fairy Realm tend to be kind, caring, and very intelligent. 

Fairies are rather closely related to Elves so Talinee has an Elven symbol on her tunic.  It is the letter "T" for Talinee - written in Elvish.  

Talinee knows that willow trees are a source of some medicines.  Aspirin has a common ingredient, salacin, that is found in willow bark. The salicin in willow bark turns into salicylic acid in the body... and THAT is the main therapeutic ingredient in aspirin,  So Fairies know that they can use willow bark to treat pain, fever, thin blood, etc.  Blood thinning - not bloodletting - is helpful to prevent strokes or heart attacks.  

NOTE:  This pair of drawings, in printable form, are found by clicking on the button labeled Fantasy, Myths, and Circus.  Then, if you are accessing this page in the first months of 2025 these will be near the end or bottom of the list of drawings... so scroll down.  Have fun coloring!!!

Jesus before Pilate: "Behold the Man!"

This is my free coloring pages blog.

Today's newest drawing is one that was difficult for me to do.

It is of our Savior suffering for us.



Jesus before Pilate - Behold the Man

Jesus was accused by the Jewish leaders of His day.  They brought Him before Pilate because only the Romans could pronounce a death sentence.  Pilate had Jesus beaten, flogged, made fun of and then presented Him before the crowd.  He possibly thought that the crowd would feel sympathy for Him, but they called for Jesus to be crucified.  This drawing is of the presentation of Jesus to the mob.  He, Jesus has been beaten and flogged.  His beard hairs have been partially plucked out.  He has a gorgeous robe on that the soldiers put on Him.  

The soldiers made a braided crown of thorns and bowed down to Him and called Him King of the Jews.  They put a rod in His hand like it was a scepter.  Then they took the scepter from Him and used it to beat Him.  This would have driven the thorns into his scalp.  So that is why Jesus is bleeding in this drawing.  Of course, He would also be bleeding on His back and the robe would make the pain of the flogging worse.  The beating could have possibly given Jesus a black eye or even two black eyes. He also would have had bruises.  

So Jesus looks terrible in the drawing.  I think it is evidence of how much He loved us.  He had the divine power to stop the torture and even His execution. But He was a willing sacrifice.  He did not want to do it but He wanted to obey and follow His Father's will.  Jesus knew that He would be paying the price that had to be paid for the sins of all mankind.  Jesus also knew that His resurrection would make our resurrections possible after our spirit's time in the Spirit world or Paradise.

So even though Jesus looks terrible, in this picture he is, believe it or not, showing His love for us.  There is an eternal penalty for sinning and we all sin in our mortal life.  Only Jesus never sinned.  He loved us enough to suffer terribly and die for us.  Then three days later He was resurrected.  

So remember, death is not the end.  Our eternal spirit goes to Paradise and awaits our resurrection when one day our glorified immortal body will be united with our spirit.  So, I can tell you that I have surgery in two days.  If I pass on I will be fine.  I HOPE I am here to stay for quite some time.  I love my mortal life in spite of some pretty difficult health issues.  I love my wife, kids, grandkids, extended family and friends.  This surgery is usually routine but one time my trachea tore and I was a mess for a long time.  So if you believe in God, please pray for me... that my surgery will go well.   It is nice to know that one day I will be resurrected with a perfect body - one with no trach tube, nor a bad heart, etc., etc.  But I still am willing to live with this messed up mortal body for a while Lord!  

NOTE: This drawing is found in printable form by clicking on the button labeled "Religious."  Then scroll down to the bottom of the New Testament section.  Click on the title and you will get your printable coloring page.  I know that many people will not want to color this but it seemed appropriate to show just how much our Savior loved us.          

By the way, there is symbolism in this drawing.  A dove is seen in the distance representing the Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit.  There is a tree representing the Tree of Life.  Jesus loved the mountains and went there to pray.  Those are all are seen out of the window on the left.  The other symbols are of Rome and the worldly power of Rome.  That power of nations is insignificant compared to the Power of God.

Steppe Mammoth the Biggest Mammoth Ever

 This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's new drawing is of the biggest mammoth ever to live.



Steppe Mammoth the Biggest Mammoth


The Steppe Mammoth was the biggest mammoth ever to live.  In fact, it was the biggest species of elephant.  It lived 1.7 million to 200,000 thousand years ago.  It first evolved in East Asia and the species eventually spread to both Europe and North America. 

The biggest male steppe mammoths were up to 14.8 feet or 4.5 meters tall.  It weighed over 31,000 lbs or a mass of 14.3 tonnes.  (metric tonnes)  That would be 14,300 kg.  It may have been partially covered in hair or maybe fully covered in hair.  It definitely had some hair. 

Modern humans evolved around the time that this species of mammoth went extinct.  It is possible that Man helped drive this species to extinction via overhunting.  But we don't know this. There is also the fact that modern humans first evolved in Africa, not on the northern continents where the Steppe Mammoth lived.  In fact, I should add that the Steppe Mammoth is also called the Siberian Mammoth.

Lexi the Puppy Fairy

 Here you are at my free coloring pages blog.

There are over 3000 coloring pages here that I have drawn for you to print and color.


Today my second new post is of Lexi, a beautiful and kind Puppy Fairy.



Lexi the Puppy Fairy

Lexi is one of those Fairies that loves doggies, especially puppies.  When she is notified of a lost puppy she goes to work to find the little doggy.  Notice her flying belt.  When a Fairy wears a Flying Belt she or he can fly at incredible speeds.  Lexi uses this speed to go to where the puppy has been reported missing.  Then she uses her magic to find the puppy.  The charm to find a puppy is "Lobito Entontrar."  Of course "lobito" means wolf but dogs ARE descended from wolves. Technically this charm will also find lost wolf puppies.  

About Lexi.  She is both kind and beautiful.  And to be honest, a kind nature trumps beauty any day.  But she IS beautiful.  I suppose you could say that Lexi is beautiful in every way.  Doggies naturally trust her - even when she is disguised in human form.  She is obviously not in disguise here in this picture.  But she can internalize her wings and appear to be a human.  In fact, she works with dogs when she is in the mortal world.  Our doggy absolutely adores her.

Constellation Starship orbiting a Ringed Planet - fan art coloring page

 Here you are! Hi!  This is my free coloring pages blog with over 3000 coloring pages to color.

I have drawn them for you to print and color.  

Today there are two new posts.  The first one is a Starship. 


Constellation Class Starship

So, I am a huge Star Trek fan.  That makes me a Trekkie or Trekker.  In fact, as I write this post I am wearing a Star Trek The Original Series T-shirt.  And I am wearing a Star Trek The Next Generation lanyard.  Plus I have a pair of Captain Kirk socks on.  And today I wore my Borg hat that I made.

So, I am a bit of a fanatic.  This drawing is not exactly like the Constellation Class starships in the Star Trek franchise, but it is similar.  I have been doodling by drawing Star Trek spaceships for around 55 years.  I love the franchise so THANK YOU Gene Roddenberry and all those who have kept the franchise going.  Its message of hope and equality is very important in the 1960s, now, and every day in between,

It is orbiting a ringed planet similar to Saturn, but it is NOT the planet Saturn.  You know this because of where the shadow is on the planet.  The shadow on Saturn would have been on one side, no the bottom of the planet.  So this is a ringed gas giant exoplanet. 

  In reality, science fiction is a type of fantasy with advanced technology that is unknown to us in our current situation.  However, Star Trek has led to the development of real technologies like cell phones and electronic tablets.  Think about it, Captain Kirk was signing on an electronic tablet in the 1960s and now electronic tablets are a real thing.  Some of the first cell phones were flip phones, like the Star Trek communicator.  My iPhone 14 can already connect to satellites for text messaging.  I predict that one day all or most cell phones will use satellites instead of cell phone towers.  Or at the least, they will be able to use satellites when they are off the grid. 

NOTE:  This drawing in its printable form will be found by clicking on the "Fantasy, Myths, and Circus button.  Then scroll down to the bottom of the list of drawing titles.  If you are accessing this near the beginning of 2025 then this title will be at or near the bottom of the list of drawings. Have fun coloring and "Live long and prosper!"

Nesting Ornithocheirus coloring page

 You have found my free coloring pages blog.  

Today's new drawing is of a large Pterasaur called Ornthocheirus.



Nesting Ornithocheirus

Ornithocheirus lived in the Cretaceous Period.  It was large but there is currently some controversy on exactly how big it was.  Some estimates say up to 40 feet wide wingspan but other estimates say more like 15-20 feet wide.  Either way, it was a large animal with a weight somewhere between 100 and 200 lbs.  It is thought that it probably migrated like the modern albatross.  

Ornitrhocheirus were fish eaters and yet had teeth that were less poked out than many other Pterosaurs.  In other words, its teeth were more perpendicular to its jaw and skull.  Ornithocheirus is featured in the Walking With Dinosaurs documentary in the Giant of the Sky episode.

Portrait of Jesus coloring page

 This is my free coloring pages blog.  Welcome!

Today I am posting a drawing of our Savior.

I drew this while in church yesterday.



Jesus Portrait


This is a portrait of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  He came to Earth as the Only Begotten Son of God in the Flesh.  He went through a relatively short life.  He taught His gospel of love and tolerance.  He never sinned.  Then as the Worthy Lamb He suffered and died to pay the eternal price for our sins. 

You see, when we sin we are doomed to forever be separated from our Heavenly Parents. But Jesus agreed in our premortal life to come to Earth as the Son of God to be our Savior.  He paid the price for our many sins so that if we repent and strive to do better then we can one day return to our Heavenly Home.  Otherwise, we would all be doomed to being eternally separated from our Heavenly Father, Heavenly Mother,  AND our Eldest Brother and Savior, Jesus Christ.  

Personally, I think that Jesus has large kind eyes and long wavy hair.  So that is why I strove to draw Him this way. 

NOTE:  This drawing is found in printable form by clicking on the button labeled "Religious."  Then scroll down to the bottom of the General Religious or New Testament section of the Religious page.  I will also post this drawing under my Portraits button.  If you are accessing this around the first part of 2025 then you will find the drawings near the bottom of those lists I mentioned.
