Portrait of Resurrected Jesus

This is my free coloring page blog with over 3000 coloring pages for you to print and color!

Today's new drawing is a simple portrait of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.



 Resurrected Jesus side-view portrait

This portrait shows our Savior Jesus Christ AFTER His resurrection. But his life did not start at His birth in Bethlehem. He lived with us as our elder spirit brother. We had Heavenly Parents in what could be called our pre-mortal life. Some people call it a "pre-existence.  

Jesus volunteered to be our Savior. He volunteered to pay the eternal price or punishment for our sins. Then we were sent to Earth to be tested. We all sin. Jesus Christ performed His atonement in the Garden of Gethsemane and on the cross so that we would have the opportunity to repent. 

Jesus earthly mother was Mary, a mortal. But his father was our Heavenly Father. So Jesus was actually very powerful. He COULD have stopped the crucifixion, but He went through the terrible pain because He loved us. He STILL loves us. If we keep God's commandments and repent when we don't... then we will be able to live again one day with Him and our Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother. We also will be able to live with our worthy family members - including our spouse if we have been sealed for time and all eternity in one of Heavenly Father's Temples.

Triceratops near a Waterfall

 This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's new drawing is of a waterfall from the Mesozoic Era.

Triceratops near a Waterfall


Triceratops was a 30-foot-long herbivore from the Late Cretaceous of North America. It weighed  6-10 metric tonnes or between 13,000 and 22,000 lbs. That is a maximum of 11 English tons. Triceratops had a ball-joint on its neck so its long brow horns could be swung like parallel swords. It probably used its horns for both sexual display and to defend itself from Tyrannosaurs. 

Triceratops is actually my favorite dinosaur. It was so impressive I think. It certainly traveled in herds, and the males possibly jousted for females. There is a theory that the frill was able to be flushed with blood to make it possibly red and make the dinosaur look more fierce.  There is also an idea that it may have had eye spots on the frill. Eye spots would make it look bigger to predators. 

Look for 3 Triceratops, an Ankylosaurus, and a few Pteranodons. 

NOTE:  This drawing or coloring page I drew for you... can be printed, and you or your kids can color it. Just click on the "Paleontology" button. Then scroll down to the bottom of the "Mesozoic Life" section. IF you are accessing this site in February or March of 2026, then this drawing will be at or near the bottom of the Mesozoic portion of the list. 

We went to a dinosaur encounter with I Heart Cookies. We bought a cookie for our 3 grandkids and got to see the animatronic dinos up close. There was a spectacular mural on the side of one of the semi trucks, and I was inspired. It was a painting of a couple of Triceratops near a waterfall. See below:

2 Dinosaurs & a Pterosaur of Southeast Asia

This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's drawing is of Mesozoic animals that lived in Southeast Asia.



2 Dinosaurs & a Pterosaur of Southeast Asia

These four animals lived in what is now Southeast Asia during the Cretaceous Period.  All were found in Thailand and probably existed in nearby countries like Vietnam. Vietnam has a lot of Cretaceous Period rock that shows that dinosaur ecosystems existed there. 

In the foreground is Siamosaurus suteethorni. It was a medium-sized Spinosaur from what is now Thailand. It was somewhere between 17 and 30 feet long. That is around 5-9 meters long. It is known only from teeth, so this drawing is based on other Spinosaurs found in other parts of the world, like Baryonyx. Spinosaur teeth are very conical and were used for spearing fish. So here Siamosaurus is seen about to spear a sawfish with its long, straight teeth. Siamosaurus may also have fed on Pterosaurs when it could catch them off guard. 

Far off in the background, you see a Titanosaur. This is Phuwiangosaurus sirindhornae... a medium-sized Sauropod. It was around 50 feet and possibly up to 65 feet long.  That is 15 to 20 meters long. It fed on plants and was possibly the largest animal in the ecosystem. The local Spinosaurs would have left a full-grown, healthy Phuwiangosaurus alone. Besides, it appears all Spinosaurs fed more on fish than large dinosaurs. Although there is evidence (as mentioned above) that Spinosaurs may have fed on Pterosaurs occasionally. 

The Pterosaurs seen in the sky are Garudapterus buffetauti. This flying reptile is NOT a dinosaur, but it lived with dinosaurs in the Mesozoic Era - including the Cretaceous Period. Garudapterus was a smaller type of Pterosaur. But it was not tiny either. It had a wingspan of about 8 feet or 2.5 meters wide. Like the Spinosaurs, it was primarily a piscivore or fish-eater.

Livia the Catwoman & other Catwomen coloring pages

You have found my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's new drawing is of a Catwoman.





Livia the Catwoman in Her Garden 

This is Livia the Catwoman. She is seen here in her garden. Can you guess what she is planting?  It is a plant that cats really like.  Livia is a beautiful person. She is from another planet other than Earth. You see, when God said that He created Man and Woman in His own image, he was referring to their spirits. The BODIES of sentient beings throughout the Milky Way Galaxy are all humanoid, yet not all are just like the humans on Earth. 

Livia is considered to be a strikingly beautiful person on her planet. These Catpeople live on the Planet Felis. They choose a simple life at home, yet they are an advanced civilization that rivals the technology we have here on Earth. However, they have chosen to use their technology to preserve their planet. They are far more responsiblecaretakers of their planet than Man has been of Earth.

Livia is planting - you guessed it - catnip. You see, the Felisians have advanced spaceships and have secretly visited Earth. They discovered catnip and took some home to cultivate it. Catnip triggers a euphoric and happy response in cats... and in the Catpeople of the Planet Felis.  It is cultivated in home gardens. It is non-addictive and, in the opinion of the Catpeople, catnip is the best thing they found on Planet Earth. 

Livia is beautiful both inside and out. The Catpeople or the Felisians value a kind soul and an intelligent mind. They consider the personality of a person to be more than half of their beauty. All Felisians are covered in fur except on their face, palms, and pads of their feet. They consider that their fur preserves their modesty. They wear clothing for work, such as their "catronauts" who travel in space. The castronauts wear spacesuits that are similar to human spacesuits. Of course, a catronaut suit has a space for the tail. Livia is seen here in her garden and not at work. So she is not wearing her work clothing, a spacesuit. She is, in fact, one of the Felisian catronauts who visited Earth. 

I should add that other planets have deer-like animals and bird-like animals... like the ones seen in the background of this coloring page.

Tyrannosaurus was BIGGER than previously thought.

 This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today the new drawing is of a large, robust, female T. rex. 


Big Mamma T. rex


Recent research has suggested that Tyrannosaurus rex may have been considerably bigger than previously thought. Studies show that T. rex may have matured more slowly than previously thought and grown to close to 50 feet or 15 meters long and weighed up to 15 tons! That is 30,000 lbs or   13,608 kg.  So, T. rex may have been 70% heavier and 25% longer than previously thought. 

This drawing shows a very hefty mamma Tyrannosaurus rex. She is drawn heavier than you would think. It is thought that perhaps the female T. rex was larger than the male, as in most birds of prey. The more gracile T. rex are thought to have been males. The more robust T. rex are thought to have been females. 

So this Big Mamma would possibly have weighed 15 tons or 30,000 lbs and been nearly 50 feet long!

About the volcano: notice that it is experiencing an ash and lava eruption. This type of simultaneous ash and lava eruption often happens with stratovolcanoes.

The Prophet Nephi from His Garden Tower


This is my free coloring pages blog. Today I am posting a drawing I did in church. 

It is the prophet Nephi speaking to the people from his garden tower. 


Prophet Nephi from His Garden Tower 

THIS Nephi is not the Nephi who traveled to the New World from Jerusalem. This Nephi is from over 500 years later. He was the prophet when his people, the Nephites, were going downhill as far as keeping the commandments. In other words, they were BREAKING the commandments.  Gadianton Robbers controlled the corrupt government. Gadianton Robbers were gangsters or organized crime. The people were full of wickedness and pride. 

This is an amazing story. Nephi had a garden tower. He lived by the road that led to the main marketplace. He was so upset at the wickedness of the people that he went onto his tower to pray. Passersby heard Nephi's prayer, and a crowd started to gather. Nephi stood and began addressing the crowd and condemning the wickedness of the people and the wickedness of their government. He testified about Jesus and reminded the people about former prophets who testified about the Son of God.  

Nephi even prophesied that the Chief Judge had been murdered by his own brother.  (The Chief Judge was the executive of the government, like a president or prime minister.) This Chief Judge and his followers were corrupt and evil. Nephi testified of their wickedness. 

Nephi told the people that both the dead Chief Judge and the murderer were both members of the band of Gadianton Robbers. The people sent runners to check, and sure enough, the Chief Judge was dead, having been murdered. 

Some people accused Nephi of being involved in the killing. They arrested him and took him before other corrupt judges. Nephi did something that proved his innocence and revealed the murderer. Nephi told the people to send a man to talk to the brother of the Chief Judge. It is kinda complicated, but the killer confessed that he killed his own brother, and the killer even exonerated Nephi. 

Nephi was freed and left alone. He was instructed by God to go among the people and call them unto repentance. A great war broke out among the Nephites. Nephi smote the land with a draught or famine when he saw that the people were about to be destroyed by war. The famine killed many of the most wicked people ammd the remainder repented. Then Nephi asked the Lord to send rain again. 

Read all about it in The Book of Mormon, Another Testament of Christ. The story is found in Heleman chapters 7-9.  By the way, Chapter 10 is where you read about how the prophet Nephi is given great power to bring his people unto repentance.

A quick note about the drawing: The clothing is similar to clothing worn by the people of ancient North America... particularly the people of the Mound Builder cultures. Some people think that the Book of Mormon events happened along the Mississippi River valley and nearby areas.

3 More Mermaid coloring pages

This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's new drawings are of 3 different Mermaids. 




Tracia the Mommy Mermaid

I last drew Tracia when she was expecting. Well, the merbaby arrived a while ago. His name is Mikey!  As you can see, Tracia sometimes is a Treasure Mermaid as well. Here she has found a priceless giant diamond and a chest of treasure. Her baby, Mikey, is swimming nearby. Baby Merpeople can swim as soon as they are born. Of course, they can also extract oxygen from the water with their specialized lungs. A Mereperson can get oxygen from both the air and from water. 

Can you spot the sea anemone and a clownfish?  How about the shark, the two jellyfish, the clams, the starfish, the sea turtle, and the eel?  There is also a small striped tropical fish and a brain coral. 



A Young Mercouple in Love

This is a pair of Merpeople who are in love. They are meeting at a seastack that is in shallow water. You can see a cruise ship off in the distance. Some Merpeople like to appear briefly to cruise passengers to give them a thrill. 

Can you spot the clam? How about the starfish, the crab, the brain coral, two fish, and several barnacles on the seastack? There is also a pair of Laughing Gulls. These gulls are one of the species of gulls with a black head. Only the male has a black head.  Laughing Gulls are common all along the East Coast of North America.  With that in mind, is this the Pacific or the Atlantic Ocean? 



Cruise Mermaid on the Dunes by a Beach

This is Playa a Cruise Mermaid. She also could also be called a Beach Mermaid. As was mentioned earlier, some Merpeople like to give cruiseship passaners a brief glimpse. Playa can, like all Mermaids and Mermen, can transform into mortal form. 

The Trident that Playa is holding is like a wand that Fairies carry. In fact, some people think that Merpeople are actually a type of Water Fairy or Ocean Fairy.  These sentient beings live in cities under the sea and they use their magic to keep hidden from mortal eyes.
