Halloween Skeleton with a Pansy Flower coloring page

 Today's newest coloring page is a 

Skeleton with a flower called a pansy. 



Halloween Skeleton with a Pansy

Let me tell you how I got the idea to draw this skeleton. I was in the waiting room of my audiologist's office. He had a life-sized Halloween decoration skeleton sitting in the chair next to me. I decided to draw it. So here it is. Drawing a skeleton, or even PART of a skeleton, is very challenging!

I added the pansy because pansies are very cold-tolerant. They can be one of the first flowers planted in the spring and one of the last living in the fall. I know this because while an undergraduate Brigham Young University student, I worked Grounds.

Dandy Puppy with Fairy coloring page

Today's new coloring page I drew for you is of our dog, Dandy.

But it is him as a puppy being visited by a Fairy. 







Dandy Puppy with Fairy

Dandy is our doggy. He is a Micro-Mini Goldendoodle. I drew him with a kind Fairy. In fact, she is probably a Puppy Fairy. These are Fairies that have a certain affinity for young dogs, AKA puppies. Unbeknownst to their mortal owners, many puppies were returned home by Puppy Fairies. Usually, the owners did not even know the puppy was missing. Puppies can be escape artists and find ways to escape a fence, etc. When the puppy was lost, and the owner was aware of the loss, the Puppy Fairy will sometimes show themself to the owner (when the Fairy returns the puppy home) and assure them that the doggy or puppy is safe. In this picture, the Puppy Fairy has conjured up a puppy treat for Dandy.

Just for fun, look for the happy things in the coloring page. I don't just mean the puppy and Fairy.

Halloween Witch with Familiars coloring page and search-and-find

Today I am posting my first Halloween coloring page for 2026!

This is a coloring page, but it is also a search-and-find.



Halloween Witch with Familiars

According to witch lore, any animal can be a witch's familiar. But in this picture are several animals that are more traditionally associated with being witch familiars. Can you find them all in the coloring page?

Dog - This one surprised me.

Cat - This is a commonly known one.

Frog or Toad - These are also commonly associated with witches (only one in the coloring page).

Owl - Very commonly associated with witches; think Hedwig from Harry Potter.

Mouse - I never would have thought of this one.

Ferret - My daughter said my drawing here of a young ferret is her favorite animal in the drawing

Bats - They are associated with vampires, but with witches too.

Lizard and snake - Both are in this coloring page.

Rats - Rats often get associated with evil because of being carriers of the plague.

Newt or salamander - These are not lizards. They are not reptiles. They are amphibians, and lore says that they could live in fire. Reality is that people would throw a rotten log into the fire, and the pook salamander would jump out of the log into the fire. It didn't dance in the fire; it got cooked.

Raven and Crow - both are black-feathered birds that are associated with witches. 

Polecat or skunk - They are the same thing.

Fox - This one surprised me too.


NOTE: This coloring page and search-and-find are available in printable form by clicking on the button labeled "Holidays." Then scroll down to the bottom of the Halloween portion of the list.

Unicorns at Sunrise coloring page

 Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't posted in a few days.

Today, our two newest coloring page drawings - that I did at church on Sunday- are of 

Unicorns at Sunrise. 

Unicorn Colt at Sunrise



Unicorn Mare at Sunrise


Unicorns love to climb to a high place to overlook valleys at sunrise. The first coloring page is of a Paint Unicorn colt. The second coloring page is of a Unicorn Mare. Unicorns are not horses. Unicorns are sentient beings, like humans, Elves, Fairies, Dwarfs, Nyads, etc. Unicorns have magical powers, and to most mortals they just look like a beautiful horse. Some blessed humans actually CAN see Unicorns. Can you spot the happy tree in each coloring page picture? 

NOTE: These coloring pages can be found in printable form by clicking on the button labeled "Fantasy, Myths, and Circus." Then scroll down to the bottom of the list of drawing titles. IF you are accessing this site in October or November of 2026, then these coloring pages will be found at or near the bottom of the list. Have fun coloring these two Unicorns.

Heterodontosaurus a small Herbiverous Dinosaur from the Early Jurassic coloring page

 Today's new coloring page I drew for you is of 

a small cat-sized dinosaur called

Heterodontosaurus.



Heterodontosaurus feeding on Pine Cones

Heterodontosaurus was a very small dinosaur. It fed on hard things - like pine cones. It had powerful jaws, and it may have even had pouches in its cheeks to store food. It lived in what is now South Africa. It had three different types of teeth. So the name Heterodontosaurus means "different teeth." It had incisors, canine-like teeth, and grinding teeth in the back of its mouth. 

Heterodontosaurus was about 3-6 feet or 1 to 1.75 meters long. It weighed about 5.5-22 lbs or 2.5-10 kg. It was a herbivore and could feed on tough plant parts, as seen in the above coloring page. It was very small compared to some of the giant dinosaurs that had already appeared. It lived in the early Jurassic Period about 190-200 million years ago.

Ceratosaurus Near a Volcano (& Wading in a River) coloring page

 

Today's new coloring page I drew for you is of a

Ceratosaurus near a volcano.



Ceratosaurus Near a Volcano

Ceratosaurus was a theropod dinosaur. It lived in what is now parts of Western North America and parts of Europe. I guess you could say it was medium-sized. It was 17-23 feet long. It weighed around 1000-2000 lbs. or 464-928 kg. It lived in the Jurassic Period along with a fellow predator, Allosaurus. Some paleontologists think Ceratosaurus was an earlier and less derived theropod, so the larger and more evolved Allosaurus eventually drove Ceratosaurus to extinction. 
The most unique trait of Ceratosaurs was their three horns on their head. There were horns in front of each eye and one "nose horn" further down the snout. They had oversized, sharp teeth - even for a predator.

Bunny named Cruella - but she is NOT cruel! This is a coloring page of my neighbors' bunny.

 Today's free coloring page is of a black-and-white bunny. 


Bunny named Cruella

I drew Cruella with a baby bunny. Cruella is actually a bunny owned by one of our neighbors. They say that she is the best bunny ever! Cruella is a Mini Rex. The Mini Rex breed has a mutation that originated in France. This is a mutation that helps the fur stick out at a 90-degree angle from the skin. This breed is very friendly and makes excellent pets. They come in many different colors, including this black and white color pattern. 

By the way, there are 26 different breeds of rabbits. Mini Rex is one of those breeds. Also, feel free to color in the dark areas of fur a darker black color. The rest of the fur is white. Of course, maybe you like psychodelic bunnies and will use multiple colors. It's your call.
