今天我为你画的新着色页是

有像豪猪一样羽毛的鬣蜥,

棘龙浩龙

Haolong the Spiny Dragon

NOTE: I posted this in English previously, so just scroll down for the English version.

最近在中国发现了一个新的恐龙. 它有多刺的羽毛笔-很像豪猪的羽毛笔。 这是一种鬣蜥，它是一个少年。 它只有8英尺或2.45米长。 成熟的成年人肯定要大得多。 它有一个名字，意思是"多刺龙。"那就是"浩龙"的属名。"这个物种的名字是为了纪念一位伟大的中国古生物学家，名叫董志明。 浩龙是食草动物。 这是第一个发现有多刺羽毛笔的恐龙。 其他恐龙有尖刺或角，但没有羽毛笔。 鬣蜥是最着名的恐龙属之一。 在此之前，没有人知道有多刺的羽毛笔。 有一些猜测，也许浩龙在少年时期就有羽毛笔。 但大人们失去了羽毛笔。 羽毛笔很可能是为了保护捕食者。 注意：此着色页以可打印的形式找到，通过点击标记为"古生物学"的按钮。"然后向下滚动到"中生代生命"部分的底部。 如果您在2026年7月或8月访问此页面，那么此绘图将位于中生代生命列表的底部。 点击上面写着的按钮 "Paleontology."

Haolong dongi the Spiny Dragon Iguanodon coloring page

This is my free coloring pages blog.

Today's new coloring page I drew for you is 

an Iguanodon that had quills like a porcupine,

NOTE: I will also be posting this in Chinese.

 Haolong dongi the Spiny Dragon

A new dinosaur discovery in China was fairly recently discovered. It had spiny quills - much like a porcupine's quills. This was a type of Iguanodon, and it was a juvenile. It was only 8 feet or 2.45 meters long.  Mature adults were certainly much larger. It has a name that means "Spiny Dragon." That is the Genus name of "Haolong." The species name honors a great Chinese paleontologist named Dong Zhiming. 

Haolong was an herbivore. This is the first dinosaur found with spiny quills. Other dinosaurs had spikes or horns, but not quills. Iguanodons are one of the most well-known Genus of dinosaurs. Before now, none were known to have had spiny quills. There is some conjecture that maybe Haolong had quills just as a juvenile. But the adults lost the quills. The quills were most likely there for protection from predators.

Jesus presents a Lamb coloring page

Today on this, my free coloring pages site or blog,

I am posting a drawing or coloring page I did last Sunday during Church.

Drawing in Church helps me stay awake and helps me to focus.

It is an ADHD adaptation or skill that has served me well.

I did not go to Church today because my surgery recovery is going rather rough, 

so if you are a praying person of faith, please include me in your prayers.

Include my wife as well. She has her own complex health challenges that are worsening.

I am Robin Andrew Lyman. She is Laurel Anne Lyman.

She helps critique the drawings that I do for this site. 

Jesus presents a Lamb

 In the Law of Moses, the Israelites learned to sacrifice a lamb to represent the future sacrifice of the Messiah or "Lamb of God." The Savior or Messiah was, in fact, Jesus Christ. HE truly was the sinless "Lamb of God" who came to Earth to suffer and die for our sins. Then He was resurrected to open the door for US to also be resurrected one day. Resurrection means we will receive our bodies back in glorified, immortal form. The Atonement is all about how Jesus suffered and paid the eternal price for our sins. This meant that we could repent of our sins. Thus Jesus opened the door to our salvation and exaltation.

Salvation refers to us being resurrected. Exaltation refers to us being able to live with our Heavenly Parents, our spouse, and our family in glory for eternity.  To learn more about this, you can contact the missionaries from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I will add that many Christian churches teach much of this beautiful doctrine and that faith in Jesus Christ can give you great peace.    I also feel that our church has the most complete truth about Jesus Christ.

This coloring page depicts Jesus presenting a lamb. This is before His atoning sacrifice. Jesus and the lamb are up in the wilderness, so in some ways this is a very symbolic drawing. Jesus is teaching us that in the wilderness of sin, HE is the Lamb of God who will be slain for the sins of the world to make the repentance of our sins possible... and He will be resurrected to break the bonds of death for all of us. He is smiling because this is a very joyful message for all of us!

NOTE: This coloring page, in printable form, is found by clicking on the button labeled "Religious." Then scroll down to the bottom of the "General Religious" section. It is the first part of the list. I will also put it at the end of the "New Testament" part of the list. IF you are accessing this page in July or August 2025, this drawing or coloring page I did for you will be at or near the bottom of the list of religious drawings. I pray you will find YOUR connection of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

4 new Mermaid coloring pages - including Shark Week Mermaids

 Today, on my free coloring pages blog, I am posting some Mermaid drawings I did recently.

In honor of the upcoming Shark Week on the Discovery Channel, 

I am posting some Shark Mermaid coloring pages as well. 

Mermaid on a Tropical Beach

This is a Mermaid who is sunning herself on an isolated tropical beach. Her name is Solaria. She loves being in the sun. Believe it or not, Merpeople also enjoy sunbathing. They, like we mortal humans, make vitamin D from sunlight, and sunlight improves their mood...  just like we mortals. There are many isolated beaches and rocks where Mermaids and Mermen can find a peaceful sunsoak. Having some powerful magic, Merpeople can and do use their magic to hide themselves from mortals... unless they WANT to be seen. 

Of course, Merpeople can transform into mortal form as well. Some choose to live among mortals, and some even marry mortals and raise children in the landed world. Of course, those children have an affinity for the sea and can choose to go live with or visit their merpeople relatives. 

Kirianna the Shark Mermaid

Kirianna is seen here feeding sharks. Sharks are great hunters, but they are fine with free food. Did you know that often sharks in aquariums are kept very well-fed so they leave the other fish alone. Often aquarium workers are actually Merpeople in disguise. Merpeople can magically change to mortal form.

.

Addee the Shark Mermaid

Addee is seen here feeding sharks a snake eel. These are real eels found in the ocean. They just LOOK like snakes. Notice in this and the previous coloring pages... there is brain coral. And did you notice that the Mermaids have pointed ears? This is because Merpeople are a type of Fairy. Of course, almost all Merpeople can transform into mortals. And their magic is so powerful that sharks fear them. Except for some Mermaids and Mermen who are very friendly with sharks. Addee and other Shark Merpeople recognize the importance of sharks to the ocean ecosystems. 

I want to add that Merpeople are, by and large, very attractive because almost all of them are GOOD people. They are kind to other sentient beings like mortals, Elves, and Fairies. They are also kind to animals... hence seeing Addee feeding sharks. Kindness is probably the most important trait in the world. And a kind soul makes for a beautiful person - whether mortal or magical. 

Some sharks are endangered by the foolish people who think shark cartilage is a great healing thing. Shark fin soup is also eaten by some people. But remember that a healthy ecosystem is dependent on both prey and predator animals. 

Gagolia the Shark Mermaid playing with a Friendly Shark

Gagolia got her name from a shark Genus. She loves sharks and loves to play with sharks. Here she and her friend are doing a trick where, as she emerges from the water, the shark jumps over her. 

NOTE: These 4 Mermaid coloring pages that I am posting today can be found in printable form by clicking on the button labeled "Fantasy, Myths, and Circus." Then scroll down to the bottom of the drop-down menu. If you are accessing this page in July or August 2026, then these drawings or coloring pages that I drew for you can be found at or near the bottom of the list of titles. 

I want to add that I believe the human body and soul are God's greatest creations. Therefore, I hope that you will see the beauty in these drawings. Nude art in places like the Sistine Chapel glorifies God. I won't post nude art here, although I admit that these drawings show much of the human form. Although these are fantasy drawings, I hope to portray human beauty. Some of the models in these drawings were kind caregivers who took care of me in the hospital during my last surgery adventure. They were unfailingly skillful and kind - and kindness is by far the most beautifying feature in any person...          or Mermaid. ;-) I will add that animals are also beautiful creations of God, and they are fun to draw!

Nagatitan the Titanosaur from Thailand coloring page

 Hi! I drew this newly discovered dinosaur while recovering from throat surgery. Kudos to the doctors, nurses, respiratory therapists, and CNAs who took care of me so skillfully. My surgery went well, but I am still recovering at home. Thank you for your prayers if you were praying for me.  By the way, drawing helps me cope with the pain I frequently have in my throat - especially after surgery! So there are some other hospital-drawn coloring pages coming up soon. 

Nagatitan the Titanosaur from Thailand

Nagatitan chaiyaphumensis was a large Titanosaur found in what is now Thailand. It weighed up to 30 tons and was up to 90 feet, or about 27 meters long. It was a type of sauropod, so it was a long-necked herbivore that probably fed on ferns. Cycads and especially conifers. It lived in the Early Cretaceous Period, about 100-120 million years ago. 

The Pterosaur flying above the Titanosaur Sauropod is a Garudapterus buffetauti. It had a wingspan of 8 feet or 2.44 meters. It also lived in Southeast Asia at the same time as Nagatitan. So the drawing is accurate in that sense too. It had a unique mouth with a diamond-shaped sort of beak. 

If you are wondering why there is grass and flowering plants in this Early Cretaceous picture, know that recent discoveries have shown that flowering plants and grasses appeared much earlier than previously thought. 

The erupting volcano is a stratovolcano. it is not perfectly symmetrical, and that is also possible. Notice the angle change partway up the volcano. That is indicative of stratovolcanoes. These are the biggest type of volcano. 

NOTE: This coloring page, in printable form, is found by clicking on the "Paleontology" button and scrolling down to the bottom of the Mesozoic Life section of the list. Click on the title, and you get the printable coloring page. Realize that this title will be last or near the last of the Mesozoic animals IF you are accessing this site or blog in July or August of 2026; this title will be at or near the end of the list. But I draw a lot of Mesozoic animals (especially dinos), so the title will be further up the list after that. Have fun coloring this spectacular Titanosaur!

General George Washington coloring page

 This is my free coloring pages blog.

There are over 3100 coloring pages 

for you to print & color.

Today being the Fourth of July

it is Independence Day 

in the USA…

so I drew George Washington in a simple portrait with no background.

General George Washington

Picture will be posted in black-and-white printable form when I get back from my family reunion & recover from surgery.  I am having trouble posting the coloring page with my smartphone.

If you are a praying person, please include me in your prayers. 

UPDATE! My surgery went well so I am home now and finally posting the coloring page! Thanks for your prayers!  

George Washington was the commander of the Continental Army. He never quit, and his persistence helped win the colonies their freedom. He was also the first President of the United States. He refused to run for a third term and was a great example of the peaceful transition of power. 

NOTE: Now that I have finally posted the drawing/coloring page, I can tell you where to find the coloring page in printable form. Click on the button labeled "People and Portraits." Then scroll to the bottom of the list.

Esther the Courageous Queen of Persia coloring page

 This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today, being Sunday, I drew a religious-themed coloring page.

This is Esther, the Queen.

Esther the Courageous Queen of Persia

Esther was a Jewish orphan who was raised by her Uncle Mordicai. She was considered a \Jew, yet she was from the Tribe of Benjamin. She was chosen to be the new Queen of Persia after the king got into a tiff with his then-wife. An evil noble named Haman had a plot to kill off the Jews. He hated Mordecai especially. Mordecai persuaded his niece to do something to save the Jewish people. 

Although it was punishable by death to go to the king without being summoned... Esther fasted and had the Jewish people fast for 3 days. Then she bravely went before King Ahaseurus. The king was charmed by her and did not have her executed. She wisely and craftily tricked Haman so that his plot was revealed. Before Haman's plot was revealed, the king learned that Mordecai had stopped a plot to kill the king. Then the king made Haman honor Mordecai. 

In the end, King Ahaseurus had Haman hanged on the gallows he built to hang Mordecai. Queen Esther had been successful in saving her uncle and her people. I also want to note that she was chosen to be queen because she was so very beautiful. But her faith and soul were beautiful, too. Your heart and soul have a lot to do with true beauty.
