Jesus with Doggy in the Woods & a Canaan Dog coloring pages

 This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's new drawing is of Jesus with a doggy.



Jesus with a Doggy in the Woods

You often see drawings or paintings of Jesus with a lamb. We don't have a lamb, but we DO have a couple of doggies in our house. So I thought of Jesus saying that not one sparrow would fall to the ground without His Father's care. (Matthew 10:29) So, I figured Jesus loves animals, and considering how pet dogs and doggies are a big part of many people's lives, I figured that Jesus loves dogs too. 

The type of dog pictured is a small, wavy-haired doggy. (I'll admit it looks like our pet micro-mini goldendoodle.) Although in Jesus' time on Earth, dogs were more working animals helping shepherds guard the sheep, etc. The Canaan dog was probably the most common. It had erect ears, was hardy, and was medium-sized. I suspect shepherds became bonded to their dogs. So, here is a coloring page of the Canaan Dog.



Canaan Dog

I am thinking about drawing a shepherd boy with his Canaan dog. I will also draw a shepherd girl with her Canaan dog. It turns out that girls and women were shepherds too - even in the time of Christ. 

By the way, Jesus loves us the most of all. He died to pay the eternal price for our sins. Because of Him, we can one day return to live with our Heavenly Parents. We must repent of our sins and strive to do better. We must have faith in Jesus Christ and His atonement for our sins. We can even live eternally with our family from our Earth-life. We need to be baptized, receive the Holy Ghost, receive our Temple Blessings, and be sealed for time and all eternity to our spouse and children.

To learn more about this, feel free to look up The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. My wife and I served missions when we were younger, and thousands of or fellow-members are serving as missionaries now.

New Theropod Dino from the Late Triassic Period of Wales coloring page

This is my free coloring pages blog.

Today's new drawing or coloring page is of a newly

discovered Theropod predatory dinosaur from Wales.



New Theropod Dinosaur from Triassic

A newly discovered dinosaur related to Coelophysis was found in Wales. It lived about 200 million years ago in the Late Triassic Period. It was about a meter tall and 2-3 meters long. It was lightly built and was one of the earliest widely successful theropod dinosaurs. 
It actually does not have a name assigned to it. But the Late Triassic Period Pterosaur is called Caelestiventus. The flying pterosaur was found in North America in the Saints and Sinners Quarry. I have seen a Coelophysis skull in the rock at that quarry. So, although Caelestiventus lived far from what is now Wales, the Earth was still pretty much one continent in the Late Triassic. And these two ancient animals may well have lived together.

Jesus turns Water into Wine coloring page

 Coloring page of Jesus' first miracle

This is my free coloring pages blog. 


Jesus turns Water into Wine

The first known miracle that Jesus performed was turning water into wine at a wedding. I suppose He may have performed other miracles as He was growing up and as a young adult. But this is the first of His miracles recorded in the New Testament. But also consider this: Jesus is also Jehovah, the Son of God the Father. Jesus created the Earth. He was the God the Son, and He was behind many miracles we read about in the Old Testament. So, from that viewpoint, turning the water into wine was certainly not His first miracle.

Kaycia the Pet Fairy coloring page

 This is my free coloring pages blog.

Today I am posting a drawing of a Pet Fairy.



Kaycia the Pet Fairy

Kaycia is one of those Fairies that lives a double life. She lives among mortals to work with animals, but goes on patrol at night to help lost pets. When in mortal form, she magically internalizes her wings and goes to mortal size. Here she is seen still in mortal size and helping a lost micro-mini goldendoodle. 

Kaycia is a Pet Fairy, and she is also a Swallowtail Fairy. Her wing patterns are similar to those of swallowtail butterflies. There are close to 600 species of swallowtail butterflies worldwide. 

People who work with pets, and Fairies who work with and care for pets, are some of the kindest people on our planet. Kaycia is no exception. She is beautiful on the inside, and that enhances her considerable beauty on the outside. I have to add that a coloring page style of drawing falls short of sharing her beauty. But I can tell you that she is so kind that her beauty makes her glow - in mortal or Fairy form.

Robin drawn by Robin Lyman the Coloring page Artist

This is my free coloring pages blog. 

My name is Robin Lyman, and I drew all these coloring pages 

except for a few drawn by a grandnephew and two grandnieces.  

Today's new drawing is my namesake bird. 



Male Robin near a Forest

To be clear, this is an American Robin, not the European Robin. American Robins live throughout most of North America. Many robins winter in some southern places and migrate back to northern regions. Others stay in place year-round. 

They are omnivores, and so 40% of their diet is invertebrates like insects and worms etc.  While 60% of the American Robin's diet is plant-based. They especially like berries. When robins eat a lot of honeysuckle, they tend to get intoxicated. Can you imagine a drunk robin?

Male robins have a darker head plumage and a brighter red breast. In fact, it is kind of a red-orange breast. Eggs are a distinctive light blue that is called robin-egg blue.

Princess of Egypt finds Moses coloring page

 


Princess of Egypt finds Moses

Pharaoh had ordered all male Hebrew babies to be killed. This was a barbarous action. Jochabed was a Levite mother who wanted to save her baby boy. So she put him in a basket and set him into the River Nile. She certainly prayed for him, and God heard her prayers.

Moses' basket (with him alive and well inside) was found by the Princess of Egypt. She adopted Moses and raised him as her son. So Moses was highly educated and had every privilege of a Prince of Egypt. Moses went on to flee Egypt and return as the deliverer. He was an instrument in the hand of God to free the Children of Israel from Egyptian bondage. Of course, God had also heard the prayers of the Children of Israel.  So one lesson here is that God hears and answers prayers. 

In this drawing you can see part of a pillar and the bull rushes that line parts of the River Nile. 

NOTE: This drawing goes along with the course of study this month in Sunday School of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Anyone who believes in the truths found in the Old Testament is free to read my post and print the coloring page. The printable coloring page is found by clicking on the button labeled "Religious."

Skyphia the Jellyfish Mermaid coloring page


This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's new drawing is of a Mermaid...

A Jellyfish Mermaid.


 

Skyphia the Jellyfish Mermaid


Jellyfish Mermaids, like Skyphia, love jellyfish  All Merpeople are actually immune to jellyfish sting so that is not a problem at all.  Here we see Skyphia with several species of jellyfish and other marine animals nearby, at a coral reef. Skyphia got to choose her name of adulthood and so she chose the name Skyphia because true jellyfish are in the Class: Scyphozoa. Do you see the similarities? 

See if you can find the different animals. I am only naming one of the jellyfish. The biggest one is a Portuguese Man-O-War. Then there is a lobster. There are 3 types of coral. Can you identify the brain coral? There are some reef fish - 3 species - including an eel. There is also a sea turtle and a shark. There is a squid and a trio of sea worms, AKA sand worms. The plants include kelp. But kelp is not a plant. It is a type of organism in the Kingdom: Protista. 

NOTE: This drawing was inspired by my granddaughter's Barbie Mermaid. To find this drawing in printable form, just click on the button labeled "Fantasy, Myths, and Circus."
