Desert Iguana & other North American Desert Animals

 You have found my free coloring pages blog.

Today, the new coloring page is one I drew of a Desert Iguana.

Desert Iguana and other North American Desert Animals

The desert iguana is a species of lizard found in North America, primarily in the Southwest portion of the USA and the Northwest portion of Mexico. They are about 13-14 inches or 33-36 cm. Some large adults grow to 16 or so inches. That is around 40 cm long. They are omnivorous but mostly eat plants. They also sometimes eat insects or carrion. They really rely on the creosote bush for food and even burrow underneath the bush. 

This drawing includes a roadrunner, a tarantula, two ants, a crustacean called a pillbug, a scorpion, a diamondback rattlesnake, flying birds that are probably vultures or some other bird of prey, and a cottontail rabbit.

Bull Elk and a few other Rocky Mountain Animals

This is my free coloring pages blog.

Today's new drawing that I did for you is of a bull elk on an overlook.

This picture is one of 4 that will be part of a Science Animal Classification project. 

For today, it is a coloring page, albeit a pretty nice coloring page. 

Bull Elk and a few other Rocky Mountain Animals

A full-grown bull elk can weigh over 1100 lbs. or almost 500 kg. They are actually a large type of deer. They are known for a powerful bugle call that is a type of mating call. Bull elk also spar or joust with other males for the right to mate with the harem or the females of the herd. 

See if you can spot the other types of animals in this coloring page. There are 7 other species of animals in the drawing. They are: a mouse, a rabbit, a lizard, a butterfly, and 3 birds of prey. Look at the river to spot the seventh animal type or species.

Knight on Horseback and a She-Elf in Armor

 

This is my free coloring pages blog.

I have drawn well over 3000 coloring pages for you to print and color!

Today's new coloring page is Sir Josh, a knight on his horse.

Sir Joshua on his Steed Captain

Sir Joshua is seen here on an overview of a mountain valley. His noble steed is named Captain. The horse is standing in deep grass on a mountain overlook.  This is a rather dangerous place for a horse. But it is not quite as dangerous as you might think because the grass is very deep and the edge of the cliff has a bit of a lip. Still, it is fairly dangerous, but Captain is a national treasure in his country. Josh, as his friends and family call him, knows how to guide this extremely intelligent horse in dangerous places like this. Sir Joshua is on the lookout for orcs, goblins, dragons, or mountain trolls. 

Can you tell which "bird" in the distance is actually probably a dragon? When Sir Joshua turns around, then he will be able to tell which flying animal is actually a dragon.

Tiffania the She-Elf Warrior

Tiffania is a She-Elf warrior. Yes, she IS very beautiful - like nearly all elves. But she is also both deadly when necessary. That means when she is in combat with orcs, goblins and\or  trolls. However, Tiffania is also a kind wife and mother. She knows that true beauty is in far more than the physical. Sir Joshua knows this as well. 

Interesting that Tiffania chose marriage to a mortal, namely, to Sir Joshua. Sometimes they go on patrol together and sometimes individually. Often one stays home to take care of their children. Tiffany gave up her Elven immortality to marry Joshua. Tiffany is like Arwen, who said something to the effect: 

    "I would rather spend a lifetime with you, rather than an eternity without you."

I should add that in our belief, we DO get to spend an eternity with our spouse if we are both worthy. I also want to remind you that coloring pages can not capture the full physical beauty of people or Elves or Faries... but I try my best.

Tulip Butterfly Fairy on a Cloudy Day

 You have found my free coloring page blog. 

Or maybe you are a returning fan. 

Today's new drawing is of a type of Flower Fairy who is also a Butterfly Fairy.

Tulip Butterfly Fairy on a Clouy Day

This is a type of Flower Fairy. She is also a type of Butterfly Fairy. Her name is, appropriately, Tulipia. She is seen here with three butterflies. She has wings similar to these butterflies. They are called Papilia rey butterflies. (I admit that I made that up. But they ARE similar to a viceroy or monarch butterfly.)

Tulipia is leaeding some butterflies on a cloudy day, so she has ignited a magic lamplight on the end of her wand. This allows the butterflies to see the tulips they are seeking. Yes, butterflies DO help pollinate tulips. Notice that the shadows indicate that the wand is the primary light source on this cloudy day.

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. 

NOTE: This drawing is found in printable form by clicking on the button labeled New Testament then scrolling down to the bottom of the list. I will also place it in the "Portraits" section. New drawings are found at the bottom of the correct list. 

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:
