Nagatitan the Titanosaur from Thailand

 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.

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!

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.

Esther the Courageous Queen of Persia

 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.

Deinocheirus Swimming in a River

 This is my free coloring pages blog. Today's new drawing or coloring page is of a 

A weird dinosaur called Deinocheirus.



Deinocheirus Swimming in a River

Deinocheirus was a weird type of dinosaur. It was a type of ornithosaur or ostrich-like dinosaur. Its relatives were all built like ostriches and not huge. Deinocheirus was up to 40 feet or 12 meters long. It was very large, almost as large as a T. rex. It is thought to have been semi-aquatic and an omnivore. It lived in what is now Mongolia in the Late Cretaceous. This dinosaur's large arms were found 10 years before the rest of the fossilized skeleton was found.

Rebecca the Lacewing Tulip Fairy

You have found my free coloring pages blog. 

There are over 3000 coloring pages . . . that I drew. . .

that you can print to color.

Today's newest coloring page is of a Lacewing Tulip Fairy.





Rebecca the Lacewing Tulip Fairy

Rebecca is a Lacewing Flower Fairy. Clearly, her flower of choice is the Tulip. She has an affinity for Lacewing Flies or commonly just called Lacewings. These pretty little delicate insects are pollinators of Tulips. The adults are herbivores, but the larval stage is a predator. 

Lacewing Fairies are sometimes known to live in the Tulips. They do a magical expansion charm to create a magical space inside the tulip that has plenty of room. These beautiful Fairies often live in cultivated fields and gardens that have tulips. So, since mortals are nearby, they often choose to magically internalize their wings, transform their pointy ears, and transform to mortal size. Then they work in service fields among the mortals. They are beautiful, but more importantly, they are very kind. And of course, kindness magnifies beauty. 

My wife and I met Rebecca in Norway. She was helping us out. We are gifted with being able to recognize Fairies so we knew what she was. She was pleased to meet mortals who were "Fairykind." Fairykind mortals can see and or recognize Fairies, including Fairies that are disguised as mortals. 

NOTE: This coloring page is found in printable form by clicking on the button labeled "Fantasy, Myths, and Circus." Then scroll down to the bottom of the list of drawings. If you are accessing this in June or July of 2026 then this coloring page's title will be at or near the bottom of the drop-down menu.

David's Faith and his Sling Skills help Him Slay Goliath

 This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's new drawing or coloring page I have drawn for you is

a new drawing of David and Goliath. 


David's Faith and His Sling Skills Help Him Slay Goliath

David was a young man of great faith. But he was also very skilled with his weapon of choice, his sling. He had in the past killed both a lion and a bear that raided his flock of sheep. In the Bible it says he grabbed at least one of the predators by the beard and slew it. So he was using a knife or something that time. 

But going against Goliath was certainly an act of great faith. He succeeded in killing the giant and helping the Israelites defeat the Philistines. David went on to be a great king of Israel. But his example of faith and courage is inspiring. 

Sometimes I think we all have our Goliaths to slay in our lives: our Goliath of sins, our Goliath of health challenges, our Goliath of painful relationships, our Goliath of money woes... etc. And we all need to strive to have faith to be able to get God's help with slaying our Goliaths. 

A fun little note on the coloring page: The prickly pear cactus is an introduced species in modern-day Israel. It wasn't really present during this battle. But I left it in when I found out that in Israel, if you are an Israeli born in the country, you are a Sabra. So you are prickly and rough on the outside, but soft and sweet on the inside. 

Another interesting point is that the sword seen in the drawing is what a Philistine sword looked like back then. But my granddaughter says that Goliath's sword was in his sheath. I think she's right. Also, the helmet is more accurate than most Goliath illustrations. I have seen authentic helmet illustrations at museums... illustrations of Philistine helmets of the day. It is funny how they look like sea anemones.

Norwegian Forest Fairies

 This is my free coloring pages blog. 

We are on vacation in Norway & celebrating our 32nd wedding anniversary. Today we went on a hike in the woods near Bergen, Norway, & we saw two Forest Fairies, so I drew them. My wonderful wife of Norwegian descent & I are some of the few mortals who frequently can see Fairies. 


Tiril & Kaja the Norwegian Forest Fairies

Unfortunately, I can’t post this drawing in printable form until we return home. But I want to say that the people (& Fairies) of Norway are very kind. They are also beautiful, happy people. Of course, their sunny disposition and especially their kindness enhance their beauty remarkably. 

In fact, my wife & I got a little lost in the woods today, and we heard two small but beautiful voices call to us from a nearby tree. There were two lovely & helpful Fairies in the tree. Tiril & Kaja led us to the correct trail to find the beautiful lake we were looking for.  By the way, in this drawing Kaja is closer than Tiril, so because of perspective she looks larger, but both are beautiful little Fairies that are around 5 inches tall. 

Of course, like all Fairies, Kaja & Tiril can magically transform into mortal size and internalize their wings. They can also magically hide their cute little pointy ears. Tiril & Kaja like to help out mortals, so, like many Fairies, they live a double life in both the mortal world and the Fairy Realm. Many Fairies work in the hospitality industry or in medical care. Being naturally gifted with animals (Fairies can talk to and understand animals), many Fairies work as veterinary techs or as veterinarians. 

I will scan and repost this coloring page I drew when we return from Norway. Then you will have a clearer coloring page, and you’ll be able to print the picture. 

       Several days and a plane ride later...

I wrote the above while we were on vacation. We have been home a few days and are dealing with jet lag. So, today I am reposting the drawing or coloring page. So, you CAN print the coloring page now. And the image posted on this page is now much clearer since I was able to use our scanner instead of just a photo of the drawing/coloring page.   BUT my family is doing a Juneteenth celebration, so I will finish reposting this in a few minutes.

OK, I am back. We had a special red drink and talked about how evil slavery was and the freeing of the African American slaves. I will now post the printable version of this coloring page. But first I want to thank the people of Bergen, Norway... and especially the staff of the Grand Hotel Terminus in Bergen. Terminus was a funny name for me because I am an Isaac Asimov fan and I really love his Foundation Series. In that series, the new capital of the galaxy will be on the planet Terminus. 

NOTE: This coloring page, in printable form, is found by clicking on the button labeled "Fantasy, Myths and Circus." Then scroll down to the bottom of the list. If you are accessing this page in mid-June to late July, this drawing's title will be at or near the end of the list. Have fun coloring these two beautiful and kind Fairies!
