2 Fairy coloring pages

 This is my free coloring pages blog.

There are over 3000 of my drawings that you can print and color.

Today I am posting two new Fairy drawings.

Hanniah the Lacewing Dragon Fairy

Hanniah is a beautiful and kind Fairy. Of course, being kind is a huge part of beauty. Hanniah loves dragons - especially baby dragons. Baby dragons are also called "dragonlings."  Since dragons are not the best parents, for their offspring to survive and thrive, they rely on Dragon Fairies. Dragon Fairies take care of the egg and hatchling. The Dragon Fairy will care for the dragonling until the juvenile dragon is old enough to care for themselves. 

Noelia the Christmas Fairy with Christmas Dove

Noelia is a Christmas Fairy. She loves decorating for Christmas. She is receiving help from a Christmas Dove. Christmas Doves are a symbol of peace. And Jesus is the Prince of Peace. The Christmas Dove is bringing a sprig of holly to help decorate the Christmas Tree. 

NOTE: This pair of drawings are available to print by clicking on the button labeled "Holidays." Then scroll down to the bottom of the Christmas section. Click on the desired title. Have fun coloring!

Fantasy Sentient Beings - A Fairy, a Mermaid, and 2 Centaurs coloring pages

 This is my free coloring pages blog.

Today, my latest drawings are Fantasy drawings. 

All of these are considered Fantasy or Magical sentient beings.

Southwest Cliff Fairy

Cliff Fairies are often associated with Native American culture, particularly in the Southwest of North America in the countries of the USA and Mexico.  There are still some European Fairies that have fallen in love with the Red Rock country of the Southwest. This drawing shows magnesium stains on the rocks. Magnesium stains are a dark reddish brown, or medium brown, or light brown, or even green.

Maelina, the name of this Fairy, is sitting on a high, jutting cliff wall.  She is holding her wand. She is a bit curvy. You should know that although many artists depict Fairies as being very thin, like people, not all Fairies are built like Disney's Tinkerbell. Some are much more curvy. All body types are accepted in the Fairy society. The Fairies of Light do not have body prejudices. All are welcome. 

Shark Mermaid

Sharks are an important part of the ocean ecosystem. Yet over the last 50 years, shark numbers worldwide have declined by over 70%. Shark Mermaids are striving to protect sharks from overfishing. This Mermaid is named Piastria. She has a powerful magical trident that she uses to cut fishing line, remove the hook, and heal the shark's mouth. 

Can you identify the following in this drawing from a reef?  

Black Tip Reef Shark

Lobster

Sea Anemone

Underwater Sand Worms

Clownfish (by the anemone)

Brain Coral

Two other types of Coral

Clams

Oysters with Barnacles on their Shells

Seahorses

One more species of Tropical Reef Fish

Centaur Couple with Magical Lighted Sphere of Helios 

Centaurs are sentient beings. So they are intelligent, like humans are. Of course, Fairies and Merpeople are sentient as well.  In this drawing, we see two teenage Centaurs. They have a Sphere of Helios that is glowing. Notice that the sphere is the source of light in the drawing. The Sphere of Helios has powerful magic. Centaurs nowadays are generally Beings of Light, so they would only do Light Magic, not dark magic. This couple is actually sweethearts, and love is the most powerful magic there is.

Istiorachus a Sail-back Iguanodon from the Isle of Wight coloring page

 Welcome or welcome back to my free coloring pages blog.

There are over 3000 drawings I have done here. You can print them to color for free.

Today, the new drawing is of a newly discovered dinosaur.

Istiorachus a Sail-back Iguanodon

Istiorachus macarthurae was a dinosaur from the early Cretaceous Period about 25 million years ago. It lived at what is now called the Isle of Wight. It is unique among Iguanodons because it has a sail on its back.  This herbivorous dinosaur was about 18 feet or 5 meters long. Its sail was probably for sexual display. But it may have been involved in body temperature control as well.

Iguanodons were a group of very successful herbivorous dinosaurs.  They had a thumb spike on each hand. This spike was presumably for self-defense. When the first Iguanodon was found, the thumb spike was assumed to be a nose horn. That was cleared up later.

The Pterosaur seen in the drawing is also from the Early Cretaceous. It is called Tupandactylus.  It had a large and rather flat crest that may have been used like a rudder for steering during flight.

NOTE: This drawing is found, in printable form, by clicking on the "Paleontology" button. Then scroll down to the bottom of the "Mesozoic Life" section. Click on the title to get the printable coloring page. Have fun coloring this new Iguanodon dinosaur! (And have fun coloring the Pterosaur.)

Animals eaten at the First Thanksgiving coloring pages

Happy Thanksgiving!

This is my free cooring pages blog. 

Today, I am posting some pictures I drew of the various animals that may have been served at the First Thanksgiving Feast. Yes, it includes turkey... but there were so many other forms of meat!

Wild Turkey & Passenger Pigeon

Back in 1621, in the area around Plymouth Colony, there WERE turkeys. But there were also Passenger Pigeons.  Sadly, now Passenger Pigeons are extinct... Was it the Pilgrim's fault?  Turkeys are a bird native to North America. So were Passenger Pigeons. Turkeys are found from Southern Canada to Guatemala. The largest wild turkey ever taken weighed over 37 lbs. 

Canadian Geese on a River

Canadian Geese were probably part of the first Thanksgiving Feast.  Canadian Geese, also called "Honkers," are found all over North America from Northern Canada to Northern Mexico. Waterfowl are listed as part of the first Thanksgiving Feast. 

Mallard Ducks on a Pond

Mallard Ducks are a very common duck in North America. They live from Northern Canada to Southern Mexico. The drakes have a beautiful green head that really stands out.

Whitetail Deer at an Overlook

Whitetail deer... or white-tailed deer... or white-tail deer are a common species of deer. They are found from Canada to northern South America. They were and still are the most common deer found near Plymouth Colony, Massachusetts.  The Wampanoag tribe of Native Americans brought 5 deer to the first Thanksgiving feast. So venison was on the menu... most certainly more so than turkey.

Swan, Grebes, Ducks, and Coots on a Pond

Swans were eaten by Native Americans, as were ducks and probably coots. Coots are a smaller, dark-feathered waterfowl. Grebes were probably hunted by Native Americans in the past. In the USA, Grebes are protected due to some species of Grebes almost being wiped out by European Americans.  Grebe feathers are very soft and were used in hats, etc. Notice that the grebe in the drawing is a mother with her grebelet on her back. By the way, I think swans are the most beautiful of all birds, so I could never hunt them. But I will also state that hunting organizations like Ducks Unlimited have many of the best conservationists for waterfowl. Growing up by a reservoir, we even had ducks and geese for Thanksgiving dinner some years. Nowadays, I never hunt, but I do love to fish for Trout. In fact, fish were also probably part of the first Thanksgiving Feast. In fact, the feast might have even included brook trout. 

Brook Trout in a Stream

Since it is probable that fish were served at the First Thanksgiving, I drew a Brook Trout. Brook Trout are naive to the East Coast of North America and westward all the way to Minnesota. They have bright red-orange undersides. There are some species that live in the ocean and spawn in rivers. Other species are only freshwater fish. These have been introduced to Western North America. I actually love Brook Trout. They are beautiful and are also the best-tasting trout. The meat in a Brook Trout is even salmon-colored. I have caught a lot of Brook Trout in the streams of the Black Hills of South Dakota.

Shellfish eaten at Thanksgiving

We probably don't think of shellfish at Thanksgiving. But the original Thanksgiving probably included clams and oysters from the Atlantic coastal waters.

Four Flower Fairy coloring pages

This is my free coloring pages blog.

There are over 3000 drawings that I have done for you to print and color.

This is not coloring online. I taught kindergarten for a few years and I believe in crayons.

Today's new drawings are all Flower Fairies.

Kira the Flower Fairy 

Kira is a Flower Fairy. Her favorite flowers are Black-Eyed Susans. She is also a Polenation Fairy who obtains pollen from one flower and transfers it onto another flower of the same species. She is also a very kind Fairy. She is very beautiful, but a coloring page can not show all that beauty.  See below for more on beauty.  (Meaning in the paragraph before the NOTE.)  By the way, Kira is wearing an outfit made from small leaves and flower petals.  Many Fairies wear naturally-sourced clothing of a plant nature. 

Swallowtail Pollination Fairy

Swallowtail Fairies have butterfly-like wings that are similar to wings on a swallowtail butterfly.  A Pollination Fairy, as mentioned above, spreads pollen from flower to flower. They do this when there is a lack of sufficient pollinator animals like bees and hummingbirds. This Fairy is named Ellagenia. 

Tulip Pollination Fairy

Some Pollination Fairies specialize in one type of flower, like this one. Other Flower Pollination Fairies work with many species of flowers. Here we see a Tulip Fairy or Tulip Pollination Fairy sitting on a stump and pollinating a tulip that grew next to the stump.  This Fairy's name is appropriately Tulipia.

Floria the Ground Cover Flower Fairy

This is a type of Flower Fairy that specializes in low-to-the-ground flowers. She is named Floria, and she is sitting on a rock to pollinate the Drift Ground Cover Roses. She uses her wand to magically collect pollen from one flower and place the pollen on the next flower. Floria is a beautiful Fairy. Her outfit is made of small leaves and flower petals. 

About beauty, these Fairies are all beautiful. But they are beautiful because they are beautiful on the INside, not just the outside.  I want to say that the greatest of all of God's creations is His children. Yes, WE are God's greatest creation. And that means WE are a more important creation than planets, suns, and galaxies. I think the human body is absolutely magnificent, male/female. And God sees beauty in every one of His children. Plus, He sees into our souls and knows what true beauty is. So that includes God's other sentient beings like Fairies, Mermaids, Unicorns, Elves, Dwarfs, etc.

Then just scroll down to the bottom of the list of drawing titles. These drawings will be at or near the bottom of the list if you are accessing this in late November or December 2025. 

F-16 in Battle coloring page

 Welcome to my free coloring pages blog.

Today's new drawing is of an F-16 Fighting Falcon.

F-16 Fighting Falcon in Combat

This was a quick drawing that I did for my grandson. He added the enemy jets and the Sidewinder Missile fired from the F-16.  The details of the jet are not extensive.  I drew this from memory during church, if you can believe that. It was a quick drawing. If you want to add exhaust coming from the back of the F-16, that would make sense.  I should tell you that this is my absolute favorite fighter jet. 

The F-16 is a workhorse jet. It can be used for both air-to-air combat and air-to-ground attack. It is smaller than many other jets, and it is also less expensive.  The F-16 can fly at a speed of MACH 2 or about 1500 mph. It has a ceiling of 50,000 feet. It has a wingspan of 32 feet and a length of 49.5 feet. 

For armament, the F-16 can carry a lot of different weapons, including air-to-ground bombs or missiles and air-to-air missiles. It can carry an electronic warfare pod as well. It can carry a payload of up to 12,000 lbs. That is 5443 kg. It also has a 20 mm rotating Vulcan cannon for short-range. This is like a modern Gatling gun.

The F-16 has a maximum ferry range of 2000 miles. It has a combat range of up to 500 miles, depending on the payload. That works out to about 805 km. A heavy load of armament would lead to a combat range of more like 340 miles or 547 km. 

There are more than 4600 F-16s that have been produced since they first appeared in 1976.  Right now, there are an estimated 2400 to 2600 still in service in several different countries.  It is the most common fighter and even the most common fixed-wing military aircraft in the world at present. New ones are still being produced with many upgrades.

King Benjamin coloring pages

This is my free coloring pages blog. 

There are over 3000 drawings or coloring pages here.

I drew all but a few that were drawn by a grandniece and grandnephew. 

Today's new drawing is of King Benjamin.

King Benjamin teaching from His Tower

King Benjamin was a great king in Ancient America. When he was getting older, he had a tower built so that he could teach his people. He first announced his successor, his son Mosiah. Then King Benjamin taught his people about Jesus and how Jesus would have us treat each other. 

King Benjamin especially talked about how we should treat the poor. We should clothe them, feed them, and give them shelter. If we say in our hearts, "They brought this on themselves, so they deserve their bad situation," then WE are under condemnation.  

Jesus also taught that same doctrine. We are supposed to care for and administer to the poor, sick, imprisoned, and the afflicted, not abandon them. 

King Benjamin had called his people together to give them a final message. They came in families with tents, and each family had their own tent so they could hear him speaking, and presumably the family could stay out of the sun. You can read about King Benjamin in The Book of Mormon, Another Testament of Christ. Look in the first chapters of the book of Mosiah.

Allosaurus coloring pages

 Here you will find over 3000 free-to-print coloring pages.

Today's free drawings are of Allosaurus jimmadseni. 

Juvenile Allosaurus jimmadseni

Allosaurus jimmadseni was a large Theropod predator of the Jurassic Period.  Allosaurus fragilis grew up to 40 feet long, or 12 meters long, and weighed up to 4 tons.  It was one of the apex predators of the age. Allosaurus jimmadseni was a different species from the more well-known Allosaurus fragilis. Allosaurus jimmadseni lived millions of years before Allosaurus fragilis. Allosaurus jimmadseni was able to grow up to 33feet long or 10 meters long. It could weigh up to 2.5 tons or 2300 kg. 

Allosaurus jimmadseni had a crest above and in front of each eye.  It had a shorter crest on its snout as well. It most probably was the ancestor of the later Allosaurs, like Allosaurus fragilis.

Allosaurus fragilis Mother and Chick at an Overlook

In this drawing we see a mother Allosaurus fragilis with her chick at a valley overlook. Remember that an adult Allosaurus fragilis could grow to be 40 feet long. Allosaurus fragilis lived later than its smaller probable ancestor, Allosaurus jimmadseni.

Jesus Praying at the Temple in Jerusalem coloring page

Welcome to my free coloring pages blog.

If you are not new to my blog, welcome back!

Today, the new coloring page drawing is of Jesus.

I often draw Jesus during church on Sundays. 

Jesus praying at the Temple in Jerusalem

Notice that Jesus has on a prayer shawl in this drawing. In this drawing, I imagined Jesus at the Temple early in the morning, so no one was in sight but Him.  He liked solitude sometimes.  He used time away to commune with His Father... our Father in Heaven as well.  

You see, Jesus was the Only Begotten Son of God.  We ALL are spirit children of our Heavenly Parents. But Jesus was also the Son of God on Earth.  We were all with Jesus in our premortal life. We were there with our Heavenly Parents and everyone who has ever been, or is now on the Earth, or will be on the Earth. Of course, we were there as spirit children of Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother.  

Jesus volunteered to be our Savior. He paid the eternal price for our sins so that we can repent and return to live with our Heavenly Family... and our formerly mortal family.  Everything in Heaven revolves around Family.  Things are even organized by Family.  

We have to have Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, and we need to know how to repent. And of course, we all sin and we all need to repent and strive to do better. Jesus was the only person ever to live on Earth who never needed to repent. 

I should mention that I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  We have that doctrine of a premortal life where we were all there with Jesus, who was our eldest Spirit Brother... along with our Heavenly Parents and everyone else.

American Crow coloring page

 Welcome to my blog. This is a free coloring page site. 

There are over 3000 free-to-print coloring pages here. 

Today I am posting a drawing I did of an American Crow.

American Crow

This crow is sitting on a branch of an elm tree. You can tell because the serrated leaves are asymmetrical. Crows are one of the most intelligent animals out there.  They have a high brain-to-body ratio. They use tools to get food and remember where they put the tools. They can recognize human faces and even remember specific humans. They are a social bird and quite successful.

Happy Veteran's Day 2025

 Today is Veterans' Day in the USA

So I really want to say,

Thank you to those who had the nerve

To defend our country and serve

The drawing below is not a new drawing. It is a drawing of my father, who was a B-24 pilot in World War II. He enlisted the day after Pearl Harbor was bombed.  His two best friends enlisted with him. HE returned to marry, attend Medical School, and have a bunch of kids, including me. His two friends did not survive their time in the Army Air Corps. 

Dad never talked much about the war.  He used to say that while on his bombing missions, he felt like he should be teaching those kids down there the Gospel of Jesus Christ instead of having to bomb them. His missions were against transportation, like bridges and railroads. Yet he served his country and did what he had to do to eradicate violent and aggressive fascism in Europe. Sadly, it appears to me that fascism is trying to raise its ugly head here in the USA. That is so sad and so ironic. 

Lt. Lyman and B-24

Talos sampsoni a New Raptor from Utah coloring page

 This is my free coloring pages blog.

I have drawn and posted over 3000 pictures for you to print and color.

Today's new drawing is of a newly discovered raptor dinosaur

named Talos samsoni. 

Talos sampsoni 

Talos samsoni was a raptor dinosaur that lived in what is now Southern Utah. It was around 6 f 1/2eet long or bout meters long. It weighed about 84 lbs or a mass of 38 kg. It had killer sickle claws - one on each foot. It had feathers and probably was a pack hunter. It lived 78 million years ago in the Late Cretaceous. By the way, this dinosaur was around a yard or just under a meter high.  

I got to meet the Paleontologist who named Talos.  She is Dr. Lindsay Zanno. She is a professor at North Carolina State University and Head of Paleontology at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Science.  She is an expert in Theropod dinosaurs.  In fact, if you read my last post, she was on the team of Paleontologists who identified Nanotyrannus as a true separate species from T. rex.  Dr. Zanno got her master's and her PhD from the University of Utah. I expect that is where she was taught by Dr. Scott Sampson.  So that is why Talos has the species name of samsoni. Dr. Sampson was also involved in the discovery of Talos samsoni.

The Pterosaur is similar to a Cryodrakon. An ulna or arm bone (wing bone) of a fairly large Pterosaur has been found in the same part of Southern Utah.  This flying reptile or Pterosaur was NOT a dinosaur.  But it/they lived with the dinosaurs - or at least they lived at the same time. A Cryodrakon had a wingspan of 16 feet or 5 meters. However, there is new evidence that the original fossils were of subadults.  It may be that Cryodrakon was as big as Quetzalcoatlus, with a wingspan of 33 feet or 10 meters.  In any case, there WAS a large Pterosaur living in what is now the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument - where Talos was found.

Nanotyrannus coloring pages

 Here you have found my free coloring pages blog.

There are over 3000 drawings that I have drawn for you to print and color.

Nanotyrannus without Feathers

THIS dinosaur has been the source of much debate. The key issue is: Was this Theropod dinosaur a separate species of Tyrannosaur, or was it a juvenile T. rex?  Recently, evaluations have supported the idea that Nanotyrannus is a separate species of dinosaur.  It has some unique traits that would not have changed to be like a T. rex. 

Nanotyrannus with Feathers

Nanotyrranus was a smaller Tyrannosaur about 18-20 feet long or around 5 meters long. It weighed about 1500 lbs. or a mass of 680 kg.  It was around only 1/10 the weight of a full-grown adult T. rex. It has been discovered that it lived at the same time as Tyrannosaurus rex. Nanotyrannus was smaller and much faster. It had teeth made for slicing, not breaking bones. That is one of several differences that show that Nanotyrannus was a separate contemporary species of Tyrannosar, but NOT a T. rex.  

There is a possibility that Nanotyrannus had feathers, since its Tyrannosaur cousin Yutyrannus had feathers. But maybe Nanotyrannus only had feathers as a juvenile, in order to keep warm. But it lost its feathers when it fully matured.  So far, we do not know conclusively. 

I have a challenge for you:  What differences do you see in the second drawing?  It is similar, but many things have been added to the drawing.  Obviously, the second drawing has a feathered dinosaur.  What else is different or added?

Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz coloring page

 This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today, I am posting a drawing I did of a neighbor girl who was dressed as Dorothy for Halloween.

Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz

I think it is worth mentioning that Dorothy is a strong female character. She is incredibly brave and open to new experiences. She is also friendly and kind to outcasts. Think about it, the Cowardly Lion, the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodsman... all are treated kindly by her.  AND they are encouraged to follow their dreams... by Dorothy.  Dorothy is also a family-loving girl who cares about her aunt and uncle. 

Dorothy and her dog Toto is the point of focus for this drawing.  The background of farms, the Emerald City, and the Yellow-Brick Road are there for the setting, but done in far less detail.

Halloween 2025 coloring pages

 This is my free coloring pages blog.

Here you will find over 3000 pictures I have drawn.

You can print these coloring pages for free. 

Today we have some Halloween drawings... starting with a Winsome Witch.

Wisteria the Winsome Witch

Did you know that "winsome" can mean a person who is attractive in an open, friendly way? That describes Wisteria.  She is friendly and kind.  She is clearly a "good witch," not a "wicked witch."

Finley the Friendly Vampire

Believe it or not, some vampires are not evil.  They DO need to consume blood, but many vampires get by on animal blood and leave mortals alone.  Meaning they never attack a mortal and bite their neck and suck their blood.  

Wandering Werewolf

I strive to keep my posts positive, usually.  Sorry, I don't have anything nice to say about most legendary werewolves. I guess there are SOME innocents who have been bitten, and they sometimes have friends who care for them and prevent them from biting or killing people.  One example is Lupin in the Harry Potter books. His friends are animagis who can turn into animals to help him. 

Halloween Liv the Lovely Witch

Liv is a good witch, obviously. She works tirelessly to help mortals know that not all witches are evil.  Here we see her near a haunted house.  Can you spot the two ghosts?  Can you see the other witch? Do you see Liv's familiar - a young black cat?  And do you see the bat? 

NOTE: These drawings are found in printable form by clicking on the "Holidays" button and going to the bottom of the "Halloween" section.  There are many other printable Halloween drawings available as well. Have fun and Happy Halloween!!!

Brother of Jared sees the Lord coloring page

 You have found my free coloring pages blog.

I have well over 3000 drawings I have drawn for you to print and color.

You have my permission to print these pictures for kids or adults to color. 

Today's new drawing is of the Brother of Jared and the Lord.

Brother of Jared sees the Lord

The Jaradites traveled a great distance to get to the ocean.  They were told by the Lord to construct barges. But the barges were sealed up tight, so their prophet, Mohonrimoriancamur, AKA The Brother of Jared, told the Lord of the lack of light problem.  

The Lord said to him, basically, "So what are you going to do about it?"

So the Brother of Jared melted small stones from some type of rock and climbed up a mountain and said, "Lord, if you'll touch each stone with your finger so it will glow, then we'll have light for our barges."

The Lord (the premortal Jesus Christ AKA Jehovah), must have liked the idea because He had been talking to Mohonri from a cloud.  Now he reached His finger out and the Lord touched each stone.

Mohonrimoriancamur was really surprised.  He told the Lord that he did not know that the Lord had flesh and blood.  

Jesus appeared completely to him and told the Brother of Jared that He, Jesus, would one day in the future take upon Himself a body of flesh and blood. 

I like how Jesus didn't just solve the prophet's problem.  He let the prophet figure it out and come up with an idea.  By the way, the glowing stones were placed at each end of the inside of each barge to give light to the people we now call the Jaradites.  

Read all about this in the Book of Ether in the Book of Mormon, Another Testament of Christ. In retrospect, I could have drawn the ocean and the 8 peaked at both ends barges in the distance. I guess you'll have to imagine that the ocean is over to the right, I suppose.

Brenlia the Mermaid coloring page

 

This is my free coloring page blog.

There are over 3000 coloring pages that I have drawn for you to print and color.

Today's new drawing is of a Mermaid. 

Brenlia the Mermaid

Brenlia is a beautiful and highly intelligent Mermaid. She is particularly known in the Merpeople community for her athleticism.  She can jump from the water and do all kinds of aerial tricks.  Here we see her resting on the beach.  

So, all Merpeople can magically get legs and look like mortals.  Brenlia was actually raised by parents who had embraced the mortal life.  They were each half-merperson.  Brenlia could always swim incredibly fast. But her family lived inland, 900 miles from the sea.  She did not find out about her Mermaid status until she turned 18.  Her parents took her to the ocean, and she was amazed to see that she transformed into a Mermaid.  She was also surprised to see that her parents did too.

Labocania Tiranosaurio de Mexico página para colorear

 Este es mi blog de páginas para colorear gratuitas.

Hoy he dibujado para vosotros un tiranosaurio de México.

Labocania, el tiranosaurio de México

Labocania the Tyrannosaur from Mexico

Labocania es un descubrimiento reciente.  En realidad, es el segundo tiranosaurio de México. Este dinosaurio probablemente medía alrededor de 9,7 metros de largo cuando era adulto.  El holotipo (o primer fósil) de Labocania es el de un subadulto y probablemente medía alrededor de 6,3 metros de largo cuando estaba vivo.  Sin embargo, aún no había alcanzado la madurez. Su nombre científico completo es Labocania aguillonae. Por cierto, los adultos tenían una vista excelente y ojos bastante grandes. Medían alrededor de 2,9 metros de altura, por lo que tenían una vista bastante buena. Es posible que pudieran cazar por la noche. 

Este es un dibujo del dinosaurio holotipo, es decir, un Labocania subadulto. Es posible que tuviera plumas, aunque no es seguro. Los tiranosaurios emplumados SÍ existieron en Asia. No sabemos con certeza si los tiranosaurios del Nuevo Mundo tenían plumas.

La Labocania vivió hace unos 71 millones de años, unos años antes que su primo mayor, el T. rex. La Labocania vivió en lo que hoy es México. Probablemente era el depredador más importante o el depredador ápice de su entorno.

Labocania the Tyrannosaur from Mexico coloring page

 This is my free coloring pages blog.

Today I drew for you a Tyrannosaur from Mexico.

Labocania the Tyrannosaur from Mexico

Labocania is a recent discovery.  It is actually the second Tyrannosaur from Mexico. This dinosaur was probably around 31.8 feet (9.7 meters) long when an adult.  The holotype (or first fossil) of Labocania is that of a subadult and was probably around 21 feet (6.3 meters) long when alive.  Yet it was not fully grown. The full scientific name is Labocania aguillonae. By the way, an adult had excellent eyesight with fairly large eyes.  It was around 9.5 feet (2.9 meters) tall so It had quite a view. It may have been able to hunt at night. 

This is a drawing of the Holotype dinosaur... meaning it is a subadult Labocania. It may or may not have had feathers.  The feathered Tyrannosaurs DID exist in Asia.  We are not sure if the Tyrannosaurs in the New World were feathered.

Labocania lived around 71 million years ago, so a few years before the bigger cousin we call T. rex.  Labocania lived in what is now Mexico. It was probably the top predator or apex predator in its environment.

Unicorn Stallion at a Valley Overlook coloring page

 Welcome!  This is my free coloring pages blog.

You can find over 3000 coloring pages that I have drawn.

Feel free to print and color any of the coloring pages. 

Today's drawing is of a Unicorn Stallion.

Unicorn Stallion at Valley Overlook

This may come as a surprise to you but Unicorns are far more intelligent than horses.  Unicorns are sentient beings, like humans, Elves, Dwarfs, Merpeople, Faries, etcc.  The Unicorns that choose to live in the wild often run with wild horses.  Unless you are a very unique mortal you will not see the Unicorn in its true form.  It will look like a beautiful horse to you.  SOME mortal humans are blessed with the sight and can see Unicorns.  Of course all the magical sentient beings can see Unicorns.

Simple Portrait of Jesus coloring page

 This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today I am posting a drawing I did of Jesus. 

It is a simple portrait. 

Simple Portrait of Jesus

 

Jesus Christ is our Savior.  He is also our eldest Spirit Brother. We all lived in our premortal life with our Heavenly Parents. We shouted for joy at the opportunity to come to Earth and get mortal bodies. Jesus volunteered to be our Savior and pay the price for our sins,,, so we can repent and one day return to live with our family AND our Heavenly Parents... and with Jesus.

Short-faced Bear vs Smilodon the Saber-tooth Cat

 This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's new drawing for you to print and color is a

Saber-toothed Cat facing off with a mother 

Short-faced Bear.

Short-faced Bear vs Smilodon the Saber-toothed Cat

The short-faced bear stood at up to 12 feet or 3.7 meters tall. It weighed up to 2500 lbs or around 1130 kg. It was the biggest land predator in North America during the most recent ice age. It looked like a grizzly bear with a shorter face... but bigger than a grizzly bear.  

There were 3 species of Smilodon.  The largest was Smilon populater.  It could weigh up to 882 lbs or around 400 kg.  The more well-known Smilodon fatalis weighed up to 600 lbs or 280 kg. The smallest Smilodon was Smilodon gracilis at 330 lbs or 150 kg. 

I imagined a mother Arctorus defending her cub from a saber-toothed cat.  By the way, calling Smilodon  a saber-toothed tiger is actually inaccurate.  But I will admit, it does sound cool! 

Both these animals went extinct around 11,000 years ago, at the end of the last ice age.

President and Sister Nelson coloring page

 THIS is my free coloring pages blog.   

There are over 3000 free-to-print coloring pages on this blog site. 

I drew all but a few.  Those were drawn by grandnieces or grandnephews or my granddaughter.

Today, I am posting several drawings in honor of 

the funeral of the former President of 

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. 

President and Sister Nelson

This post is from a drawing done previously.  It is of our former prophet who died recently.  He was an innovative heart surgeon.  He was also a member of the Quorum of the 12 or a prophet for decades. His funeral was today.  His testimony of the Savior Jesus Christ has been very inspiring for me. His name is Russel M. Nelson.  His wife is Wendy Nelson.  President Nelson taught us to have faith in Jesus Christ and to love one another and to treat each other with kindness and forgiveness. 

Early in his medical career, Dr. Nelson witnessed a senior surgeon get very angry and throw a scalpel.  The scalpel hit Dr. Nelson in the hand, I think.  So Dr. Nelson chose to never get angry during surgery.  He was beloved and admired. He was also brilliant!  He helped develop the heart-lung machine.  He pioneered open-heart surgery, as well.  Russell M. Nelson lived a Christlike life.  Like Jesus, Russell M. Nelson went about doing good.  He was a devoted husband and father. And when he put up his scalpel, he became an amazing and kind Apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Wood Duck Family coloring page re-posting

This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's post is actually a re-posting of a previous drawing. 

I DID soup the drawing up from the original version.

Wood Duck Family

Wood ducks are a beautiful species of duck. They are colorful and quite striking.  They are also found in many parts of North America.  Here in Utah, USA, they are only found near the feeding streams of the Great Salt Lake area.  This drawing shows the drake and the mother duck with 3 ducklings.  The male wood ducks are more brightly colored, but both sexes have a feathered crest. 

Wood ducks have been helped greatly by breeding boxes placed by groups like Ducks Unlimited.  Sometimes hunters are some of the greatest naturalists and environmentalists.  Odd but true, in my opinion.

NOTE:  This drawing, in printable form, will be found at the bottom of the "Birds" section.  Just click on the "Birds" button and scroll down.  This drawing will be at the bottom if you are accessing the drawing near the beginning of October 2025.

Esther outside the Palace coloring page

 This is my free coloring pages blog.

I apologize for not posting in a while.  

Quite honestly, the things happening in my country have had me upset.

Today I am posting a picture of Esther.  The very brave queen. 

Esther outside the Palace

Esther was an incredibly brave woman.  She was chosen to be the queen.   She was very, very beautiful, but even more impressive was she was full of faith.  Encouraged by her Uncle Mordicai, she asked her people to fast before she presented herself before the king.  She managed to outmaneuver the evil Haman and save her people, the Jews, from destruction.

Spicomellus the Oldest Ankylosaur and Tendaguriterus - of the Jurassic Period from Africa

 Today on this, my free coloring pages blog, 

we have a coloring page of two Jurassic animals from Africa.

Spicomellus and Tendguriterus from Africa

Spicomellus is a recently discovered Ankylosaur.  It was from the Middle Jurassic Period.  It was 14 feet or 4.26 meters long and covered in spikes. The longest spikes were almost a yard or just under a meter long!  This was a seriously armored animal.  Its name means spiked collar. But nearly its whole body was spiked. It needed protection from Theropods like the 26-foot-long Afrovenator. 

Tendaguriterus was a small Pterosaur, also from Africa in the Jurassic Period.  Its wingspread was only about 32 inches or 1 meter wide. It had a mouthful of sharp, long teeth and fed on fish.

Jesus is the Answer - coloring page of Jesus near Jerusalem

 This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's new drawing I have done is of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

Jesus with Jerusalem in the Background

Jesus was and is our Savior.  He volunteered to be our Savior.  He died to pay the eternal price for our sins,  so we can repent and return to live with our Heavenly Parents.   Jesus was the greatest of men - His father of his flesh being God.  Jesus never sinned.  His mortal mother meant he could die, yet his Heavenly Father meant that Jesus could be resurrected.  Jesus had an imperfect body.  

The Bible implies that  Jesus was not particularly handsome.  Notice that I drew Him with a lazy eyelid.  I have this same trait.  One eye is slightly less open than my other eye.  I thought that maybe Jesus had a trait like this.  Yet He was truly beautiful because the inner person is where true beauty lies. 

In these turbulent times, we need to remember that Jesus IS the answer.  He taught love and compassion for others.  He condemned violence and hypocrisy.  He was almost certainly a skilled craftsman, yet He gave up his profession to be an itinerant (homeless) preacher.  His message of love and forgiveness is one we all need to be living by.  THAT is the answer to the troubles in our world.  We all need to truly follow Him and live by His teachings.  He welcomed the stranger. He taught forgiveness of others. He taught against violence.  He taught that we can be forgiven of our own sins.  His example and teachings were to take care of the poor, sick, and needy.  He taught us to be kind and comforting to those who were sad or suffering.  There is no greater example in history of such compassion.  We need to follow His example of caring for and being kind to others.  If we disagree with someone, we need to work it out and not have conflict over the disagreement.  The spirit of contention is not of Him.  It is of the Devil..  We need to learn to disagree with others peacefully.  We absolutely should NEVER do violence to others because we disagree with them.

Cretaceous Friends - Baby Dinosaur Friends coloring page

You have found my free coloring pages blog. 

This site has over 3000 free printable coloring pages.

Today's new drawing is of some baby dinosaurs. 

It is a cartoon-style drawing. 

Cretaceous Friends

Although this is a fun cartoon-style drawing, it is not totally inaccurate scientifically.  This is because there have been footprints found of dinosaurs, and the footprints have been of several different types or species of herbivore dinosaurs.  They obviously were traveling together in a mixed-species herd... or a mixed herd. These are obviously baby herbivorous dinos.

Another scientific accuracy is the volcano in the background.  Triceratops lived at the end of the Cretaceous Period, and there was a real uptick in volcanic activity the last several million years of the Cretaceous - BEFORE the asteroid hit and finished off the non-avian dinosaurs.  The baby Sauropod would have to be a baby Titanosaur of some kind. 

NOTE:  Since this is a drawing of dinosaurs from the Cretaceous Period of the Mesozoic Era, you can find the printable version by clicking on the "Paleontology" button and scrolling down to the Mesozoic Era section.  Click on the title and you'll get your free coloring page.  Have fun coloring this fun picture that is designed for younger kids to color.  FYI, there were 3 periods of the Mesozoic Era.  Triassic Period, Jurassic Period, and Cretaceous Period.  The  Mesozoic Era was divided into 3 periods.
