Malawania anachronus an Ichthyosaur from Iraq

 Today's newest coloring page is of an ancient Marine Reptile from Iraq.

This is my free coloring pages blog. 



Malawania anachronus an Ichthyosaur from Iraq

Malawania anachronus was an Ichthyosaur that was found in Iraq. OK, its fossilized skeleton was found in Iraq. It was from the early Cretaceous Period. Yet it was less derived than other contemporary Ichthyosaurs. Ichthyosaurs first appeared in the Triassic, and they evolved to be huge. Later Jurassic Ichthyosaurs were smaller but still very successful predators of the period. In the early part of the Late Cretaceous Period, Ichthyosaurs finally went extinct. That was around 94 million years ago. Malawania lived around 130-125 million years ago. So, Malawania had features more like the Triassic Ichthyosaurs. 

So this shows that there were some lineages of Ichthyosaurs that lived in the seas from 250 million years ago to 125 million years ago. If you do the simple math, you see that this lineage of Ichthyosaurs lived in the sea for around 125 million years. That is astounding! 

Malawania was around 3 meters or 10 feet long. So it was not as large as the giant 70-foot-long Ichthyosaurs of the Triassic Period. However, it had some of the traits of those more ancient Ichthyosaurs. Notice the large eyes. Malawania was a type of Opthalmasaurus. These were Ichthyosaurs that could see well in the dark. Their large eyes were able to gather a tremendous amount of light when they dived deep for prey such as Ammonites. In fact, the Malawania in the coloring page is after an Ammonite. 

Off in the more blurry distance is a Pliosaur after a Plesiosaur. There were bony fish and also sharks, squid, and crabs in the early Cretaceous Period - and they can also be seen. The flowery-looking animals are not plants. They are called Sea Lilies or Crinoids.

Noble the Ranger marries Laney the Elven Healer

Today's newest coloring page celebrates the wedding of 

Noble, a Ranger, and Laney, an Elven Healer.



Noble the Ranger marries Laney the Elven Healer

Elven Healers are gifted with both excellent medical skills and the good or white magic of the Elves. They are also very kind as well as brilliant. Of course, like all Elves, Laney is a beautiful person who knows that her beauty is also tied up in being a very kind and good person. Laney will sometimes go to help in battle as a healer. However, her skills at fighting would put most mortals to shame. 

Rangers roam the wild and do good. They are not robbers; they are more like law-keepers who fight against the evil in the world. Noble is also part Elf back many generations in his ancestry, so he will live well beyond the lifespan of a purely mortal man. Noble is a handsome man, and he is also handsome on the inside because he travels around doing good. Noble also has some healing skills. Of course, his fighting skills are legendary. He met Laney when they were working together after a battle of Men and Elves vs. the Goblins and Orcs.

Tribute to Deadliest Catch - Alaskan King Crab coloring page

 

Today on my free coloring pages blog, I am posting a drawing

or a coloring page of an Alaskan King Crab.

This is my tribute to what is one of my favorite shows...

Deadliest Catch!


Alaskan King Crab on the Beach


The show Deadliest Catch is about fishermen and fisherwomen fishing for crab in the Bering Sea up near Alaska. I find it an amazing show. They are on a rolling deck dropping and retrieving crap pots that weigh hundreds of pounds. The "pots" are actually cages. Crabs detect the bait and crawl into the cages, and can't get out. 

The crew has to retrieve the pot from hundreds of feet below what is often a rough sea. Finding where the crabs are is not always easy. In fact, it is very hard. The fishermen fish for several different species of crab, but not at the same time. Meaning that there is a King Crab season and an Ophilio Crab season, etc. 

The personal relationships and the personalities are what really drive the show. I find them fascinating and entertaining as well. Season 22 started a few weeks ago, and episode 3 is on this Friday, May 22, 2026. 

In this drawing, the crab is walking on a beach. Cold-climate plants and some other marine animals are also seen on the sand. See if you can spot them: A clam, a piece of driftwood, a large pinecone, a branch off of a pine tree, a serrated leaf, a starfish, and a piece of kelp that washed ashore.

There are over 100 species of starfish in the Bering Sea. The beaches of Alaska frequently have kelp washed ashore. Know that kelp is not a plant, it is plant-like... but it is in Kingdom: Protista. Shore pines live near the shore, but I have to admit that their pinecones are way smaller than the pinecone in my drawing. 

NOTE: To find this coloring page in printable form, just click on the button labeled "Animals." Then scroll down to the bottom of the drop-down menu. This coloring page I drew will be there at or near the bottom of the list IF you are accessing this blog during May or June 2026. If you are accessing this site later, then the drawing's title will still be there, somewhat towards the bottom of the list of animal coloring pages.

A New Simple Portrait of Jesus coloring page

This is my free coloring pages blog.

Today I am posting a simple portrait of Jesus Christ.

I draw religious pictures - mostly Jesus - when we are at Church.

Drawing helps my ADHD mind pay attention better, and I don't fall asleep. 


A New Simple Portrait of Jesus

Jesus is our older Spirit Brother. Before we came to Earth, we lived with Him and our Heavenly Parents in a pre-Earth life. This is sometimes called the "Preexistence." In this preexistence, we had billions of Spirit brothers and sisters. This time included us progressing and getting ready to come to Earth and receive physical bodies. There was also a war in Heaven. Lucifer or Satan fought against Jesus and our Heavenly Father. Satan lost, and he and 1/3 of the hosts of Heaven were cast down to Earth. They have not passed through the veil WE passed through at birth. 

In the premortal life, Jesus volunteered to be our Savior. He agreed to come to Earth as the Son of God and pay the eternal price for our sins. This is called the Atonement of Jesus Christ. The Atonement makes it possible for us to repent. Without Jesus, we could not repent, and we could never return to live with our Heavenly Parents. So as they say, "Jesus is the answer."

In His time on Earth, Jesus taught us to be kind to one another and to believe in Him. He also taught about repentance and forgiveness. He suffered for our sins and died for us. Then He was resurrected three days later. Because He was resurrected, we all too will be resurrected one day - with immortal bodies. Then we will be able to also live with our spouse and family throughout the eternities as well. Of course, we all have to have faith in Christ, repent of our sins, and strive to do better. 


NOTE: This coloring page is found in printable form by clicking on the button labeled "Religious." Then scroll down to the bottom of the General Religious section. I will also post this in the New Testament section. New posts are at the bottom of the correct list. I will also post this in the "People and Portraits" section.

Corgis and Fairies coloring pages

 

This is my free coloring pages blog.

Today, there are two drawings.

One is of a Corgi being ridden by a Fairy.

The second is a cartoon drawing of a Corgi in a front yard.



Fairy Warrior riding a Corgi

There are legends and tales from Wales of Corgis being the steeds of Fairies. There were also stories of Fairies riding Corgis into battle. The word "Corgi" means "Dwarf Dog" in Welsh. This drawing of the Corgi is based on a real Corgi that lives in our home. 

The next drawing is a kind of cartoony coloring page of a Corgi puppy. 


Corgi Puppy named Poppy 

There are actually two main types of Corgis. One is the Pembroke Welsh Corgi. The other is an older breed, the Cardigan Welsh Corgi. We have a Corgi named Poppy in our home. She is actually a furrier, or fuzzier, or hairier type... namely the Cardigan Welsh Corgi. The Pembroke Welsh Corgis have shorter fur. So even though Poppy is a Cardigan Welsh Corgi, this second drawing has a cartoon-style drawing of a Pembroke Welsh Corgi. The top drawing is actually based on a photo of Poppy. I am actually kinda breaking the rules because Fairies are supposed to ride Pembroke Welsh Corgis, and I drew the Fairy Warrior riding a Cardigan Welsh Corgi. By the way, Fairies are supposed to have used Corgis to pull carts as well as riding the Pembroke Welsh Corgis into battle. 

NOTE: These drawings or coloring pages are found in printable form by clicking on the correct button. The coloring page of the Corgi and Fairy is found by clicking on the button labeled "Fantasy, Myths, and Circus. Scroll down to the bottom of the list to find this title. New drawings are put at the bottom of lists. The cartoony drawing of a corgi in the yard will be found by clicking on the "Animals" button. However, I will actually be posting both coloring pages in the "Animals" list. So, for simplicity, just click on the "Animals" button and scroll down to find both of these drawings.

Página para colorear de un nuevo dinosaurio saurópodo de Argentina (Spanish) New Sauropod Dinosaur from Argentina coloring page

 

La página para colorear más reciente que publico hoy es la de un

saurópodo bastante grande de Argentina.

Bicharracosaurus dionidei, a new Brachiosaur Sauropod from Argentina
*Bicharracosaurus dionidei*, un nuevo saurópodo braquiosáurido de Argentina

Lo más interesante de *Bicharracosaurus* es que, en realidad, se trata de un tipo de braquiosáurido. Anteriormente, los braquiosáuridos solo se conocían en Europa, África y América del Norte; no se había encontrado ninguno en América del Sur. Por lo tanto, este hallazgo sugiere una migración, ya que durante esa etapa del período Jurásico —hace unos 155 millones de años— el supercontinente de Pangea solo se había fragmentado parcialmente. Antes de este descubrimiento, los principales saurópodos conocidos en América del Sur eran los enormes titanosaurios, tales como *Patagotitan* y *Argentinosaurus*. Estos titanosaurios eran de un tamaño mucho mayor y vivieron en una época muy posterior a la de *Bicharracosaurus*.

El nombre "*Bicharracosaurus*" significa "lagarto animal grande". Medía 20 metros de longitud (unos 65 pies). Aunque pertenece al grupo de los braquiosáuridos, presenta algunas características que recuerdan a las de un *Diplodocus*. Se trataba de un saurópodo de cuello largo. El nombre específico "*dionidei*" rinde homenaje al pastor argentino que descubrió los primeros huesos fosilizados.

New Sauropod Dinosaur from Argentina coloring page

 The newest coloring page I am posting today is of a 

fairly large Sauropod from Argentina.

This is my free coloring pages blog with over 3100 coloring pages 

for you to print and color. 

I will also be posting this in Spanish.


Bicharracosaurus dionidei, a new Brachiosaur Sauropod from Argentina

What is so interesting about Bicharracosaurs is that it is actually a type of Brachiosaur.  Previously, Brachiosaurs were known only from Europe, Africa, and North America. None had been found in South America. So this indicates migration because during this time of the Jurassic Period of about 155 million years ago, the supercontinent of Pangea had only partly broken up. Before this discovery, the main Saurpods known from South America were the huge Titanosaurs like Patagotitan and Argentinosaurus. Those Titanosaurs were much larger and lived much later than Bicharrocosaurus. 

"Bicharracosaurus" means "large animal lizard." It was 20 meters long or 65 feet long. Although a Brachiosaur, it has some features that look like a Diplodocus. It was a long-necked Sauropod. The species name of "dionidei" honors the shepherd from Argentina who found the first fossilized bones.

Um novo dinossauro saurópode do Brasil (A New Sauropod Dinosaur from Brazil)

Um novo dinossauro saurópode do Brasil é a


mais nova página para colorir que desenhei para este,


meu blog de páginas para colorir gratuitas. 


(Note that this was also posted in English today, just scroll down.)


Dasosaurus tocantinensis, um novo dinossauro saurópode do Brasil


O Dasosaurus era um dinossauro titanossauro saurópode do início do período Cretáceo. Media 20 metros de comprimento, ou seja, 66 pés. Viveu no que hoje é o Brasil. Possivelmente pertencia a uma linhagem de dinossauros saurópodes que migraram da Europa e através da África antes da abertura completa do Oceano Atlântico.


Os pterossauros são da espécie Tupuxuara. Era um pterossauro grande, com uma envergadura de cerca de 5 metros, ou 16 pés. Possuía também uma grande crista que pode ter sido usada para auxiliar na direção durante o voo.

New Sauropod Dinosaur from Brazil

 A new Sauropod dinosaur from Brazil is the 

newest coloring page I drew for this, 

my free coloring pages blog. 



Dasosaurus tocantinensis, a new Sauropod Dinosaur from Brazil


Dasosaurus was a Sauropod Titanosaur dinosaur from the early Cretaceous Period. It was 20 meters long. That is 66 feet long. It lived in what is now Brazil. It was possibly from a line of Sauropod dinosaurs that migrated from Europe and through Africa before the Atlantic Ocean fully opened up.

The Pterosaurs are Tupuxuara. It was a large Pterosaur that had a large wingspan of about 5 meters or 16 feet wide. It also had the large crest that it may have used for steering during flight.

Liliannia the Grass Swallowtail Fairy coloring page

 Welcome to my free coloring pages blog.

Today's new coloring page is of a type of Grass Fairy.


Liliannia the Grass Swallowtail Fairy


Grass Fairies are very common. They like the open spaces of meadows and even manicured lawns and grass at places like golf courses, in front of large buildings, and even on the grass found at schools. In fact, they especially love the grass at fields where lots of kids come like parks and schools. This is because children, with their pure minds, are far more likely able to see Fairies.

Some people are gifted with the ability to see magical creatures like Unicorns and Fairies. The magical creatures can grant that power to other mortals. But children are the most common group of mortals with that ability to see Fairies, Unicorns, etc. 

I should also mention that Grass Fairies are particularly kind and therefore good with children. Most children who have seen a Fairy or Fairies have seen a Grass Fairy. People without the gift will see a butterfly most likely, while children or adult mortals with the gift will see the actual Fairy or Fairies. 

Liliannia is a lovely Grass Fairy with beautiful Swallowtail Butterfly-type wings. Of course, she is also very kind, and a kind heart magnifies beauty in any Fairy or mortal. Fairies understand that true beauty is tied to who you are inside. Lilianna can also be mischievous. But this is all in good fun. She does not play tricks that would hurt either mortals or Fairies. She will also play tricks on other Fairies, animals, and especially on swallowtail butterflies. She always reveals herself, and no one ever gets hurt. 

Liliannia is a stylish Fairy as well. Here she is seen in an outfit made of all plant materials. In fact, it is made of grass. The grass blades are woven into a stylish pattern, and a magical Fairy charm is placed on them to keep the grass living and green.

If you are accessing this site in May of 2026, then this drawing or coloring page will be at or near the bottom of the list. Have fun coloring Liliannaia!

Jesus outside of Jerusalem after His Resurrection

 

This is my free coloring pages blog. 

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

Today's new drawing is of Jesus.



Jesus outside of Jerusalem after His Resurrection

Jesus was betrayed to the political leaders and then delivered to the Roman leaders to be executed. He was illegally tried at night and was executed on the cross. But after 3 days, He rose again. He suffered and died to pay the price for our sins. Then he was resurrected, and because of that, WE will all one day be resurrected. We will have perfect bodies that are not ever going to get sick or tired. Personally, I won't have to have a tracheotomy in my throat. 

When we die, we go to the Spirit World. Part of the Spirit World is Spirit Prison, and part is Paradise. After our time in the Spirit World, we will be resurrected and go to one of the Kingdoms of Glory. In the Celestial Kingdom, we get to live with our Heavenly Parents and our spouse and children.

Tree Fairies - Alexulmia the Elm Fairy

 This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's new coloring page I drew for you is of an Elm Fairy.



Tree Fairies - Alexulmia the Elm Fairy

Alexulmia is a Tree Fairy. That means she probably lives in an underground village that is under an elm tree. This is not a dirty or muddy hole in the ground. This is a carved-out cavern that is brightly lit and has hundreds of little Fairy houses. Alexulmia gets part of her name from the Genus name for elm trees. That word or name is "Ulmus."  Alexulmia is seen here just sliding off a tree branch to fly away. She is also known to be kind to animals, especially dogs. She will find lost or abandoned puppies or dogs and find them new, safe homes. So as you can see, Alexulmia is beautiful, but she is also very kind. Kindness is a HUGE part of beauty. 

Elm trees are kinda unique. Notice that the leaves are NOT symmetrical. You might think I drew the leaves carelessly. But I did not. The retired science teacher in me won't allow that. The leaves on an elm tree are actually asymmetrical and clearly are not a mirror image on each side. By the way, Alexulmia's wings mimic elm tree leaves. If a mortal that was not gifted to see Fairies were to see an Elm Fairy, they would only see elm leaves. 

There are American Elm native to North America, but here in Utah, our elm trees are transplants from Asia and are more likely Chinese Elm or more likely Russian Elm. American Elms were once common, but Dutch Elm Disease killed a lot of them off.  

NOTE: This drawing in printable form is found by clicking on the button labeled "Fantasy, Myths, and Circus." Then scroll down to the bottom of this rather long list. IF you are accessing this page in May of 2026 them this drawing will be at or near the bottom of the list.

 Estes são alguns animais do início do período Cretáceo, provenientes do que hoje é o Brasil.  


 



Dinosaurs and Pterosaurs from Brazil

Esses animais são um espinossauro chamado Irritator challengeri. Esse dinossauro terópode media 8 metros de comprimento, ou 26 pés. Tinha 3 metros de altura. O Irritator tinha um focinho alongado com 80 cm de comprimento. Ele se alimentava principalmente de peixes, então só iria incomodar um saurópode se a pesca estivesse ruim. 


O saurópode, ou dinossauro de pescoço longo, é um Tapuiasaurus macedoi. Esse saurópode tinha 14 metros de comprimento. Ele pesava 9 ou 10 toneladas. Tinha 5 metros de altura. Isso equivale a 16 pés de altura na altura dos ombros. Aqui ele está em pé sobre as patas traseiras, erguido para desafiar o predador. Provavelmente tem cerca de 30 pés de altura nesta foto.


O Pupuxuara era um pterossauro com uma grande crista plana. Essa crista pode ter funcionado como um leme durante o voo. O Tupuxuara tinha uma envergadura de 4,7 metros, ou seja, era bem grande. 


NOTA: Esta imagem pode ser encontrada em formato para impressão clicando no botão “Paleontology”. Em seguida, role a página até o final da seção “Mesozoic Life” da lista. Divirta-se colorindo esses animais antigos do Brasil.



Dinosaurs and Pterosaurs from Brazil coloring page

This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's drawing or coloring page I have drawn is in honor of my fans in Brazil.

These are some animals of the Early Cretaceous Period from

what is now Brazil.  

I will be posting this in Portuguese as well.


Dinosaurs and Pterosaurs from Brazil


These animals are a Spinosaur called Irritator challengeri. This Theropod dinosaur was 8 meters long or 26 feet long. It was 9 feet or 3 meters tall. Irratator had an elongated snout that was 80 cm or 2/6 feet long. It fed mostly on fish, so it would only be messing with a Sauropod if the fishing had gone bad. 

The Sauropod or long-neck dinosaur is a Tapuiasaurus macedoi. This Sauropod was 43 feet or 14 meters long. It weighed 9 or 10 tons. It was 5 meters tall. That is 16 feet tall at the shoulders. Here it is standing on its back feet, reared up to challenge the predator. It is probably closer to 30 feet tall in this picture.

Pupuxuara was a Pterosaur with a large flat crest. That crest may have acted like a rudder in flight. Tupuxuara had a wingspan of 4.7 meters or 15 feet wide, so it was pretty large. 

NOTE: This picture can be found in printable form by clicking on the button labeled Paleontology. Then scroll down to the bottom of the Mesozoic Life part of the list. Have fun coloring these ancient animals from Brazil.

Jesus with Doggy in the Woods & a Canaan Dog coloring pages

 This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's new drawing is of Jesus with a doggy.



Jesus with a Doggy in the Woods

You often see drawings or paintings of Jesus with a lamb. We don't have a lamb, but we DO have a couple of doggies in our house. So I thought of Jesus saying that not one sparrow would fall to the ground without His Father's care. (Matthew 10:29) So, I figured Jesus loves animals, and considering how pet dogs and doggies are a big part of many people's lives, I figured that Jesus loves dogs too. 

The type of dog pictured is a small, wavy-haired doggy. (I'll admit it looks like our pet micro-mini goldendoodle.) Although in Jesus' time on Earth, dogs were more working animals helping shepherds guard the sheep, etc. The Canaan dog was probably the most common. It had erect ears, was hardy, and was medium-sized. I suspect shepherds became bonded to their dogs. So, here is a coloring page of the Canaan Dog.



Canaan Dog

I am thinking about drawing a shepherd boy with his Canaan dog. I will also draw a shepherd girl with her Canaan dog. It turns out that girls and women were shepherds too - even in the time of Christ. 

By the way, Jesus loves us the most of all. He died to pay the eternal price for our sins. Because of Him, we can one day return to live with our Heavenly Parents. We must repent of our sins and strive to do better. We must have faith in Jesus Christ and His atonement for our sins. We can even live eternally with our family from our Earth-life. We need to be baptized, receive the Holy Ghost, receive our Temple Blessings, and be sealed for time and all eternity to our spouse and children.

To learn more about this, feel free to look up The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. My wife and I served missions when we were younger, and thousands of or fellow-members are serving as missionaries now.

New Theropod Dino from the Late Triassic Period of Wales coloring page

This is my free coloring pages blog.

Today's new drawing or coloring page is of a newly

discovered Theropod predatory dinosaur from Wales.



New Theropod Dinosaur from Triassic

A newly discovered dinosaur related to Coelophysis was found in Wales. It lived about 200 million years ago in the Late Triassic Period. It was about a meter tall and 2-3 meters long. It was lightly built and was one of the earliest widely successful theropod dinosaurs. 
It actually does not have a name assigned to it. But the Late Triassic Period Pterosaur is called Caelestiventus. The flying pterosaur was found in North America in the Saints and Sinners Quarry. I have seen a Coelophysis skull in the rock at that quarry. So, although Caelestiventus lived far from what is now Wales, the Earth was still pretty much one continent in the Late Triassic. And these two ancient animals may well have lived together.

Jesus turns Water into Wine coloring page

 Coloring page of Jesus' first miracle

This is my free coloring pages blog. 


Jesus turns Water into Wine

The first known miracle that Jesus performed was turning water into wine at a wedding. I suppose He may have performed other miracles as He was growing up and as a young adult. But this is the first of His miracles recorded in the New Testament. But also consider this: Jesus is also Jehovah, the Son of God the Father. Jesus created the Earth. He was the God the Son, and He was behind many miracles we read about in the Old Testament. So, from that viewpoint, turning the water into wine was certainly not His first miracle.

Kaycia the Pet Fairy coloring page

 This is my free coloring pages blog.

Today I am posting a drawing of a Pet Fairy.



Kaycia the Pet Fairy

Kaycia is one of those Fairies that lives a double life. She lives among mortals to work with animals, but goes on patrol at night to help lost pets. When in mortal form, she magically internalizes her wings and goes to mortal size. Here she is seen still in mortal size and helping a lost micro-mini goldendoodle. 

Kaycia is a Pet Fairy, and she is also a Swallowtail Fairy. Her wing patterns are similar to those of swallowtail butterflies. There are close to 600 species of swallowtail butterflies worldwide. 

People who work with pets, and Fairies who work with and care for pets, are some of the kindest people on our planet. Kaycia is no exception. She is beautiful on the inside, and that enhances her considerable beauty on the outside. I have to add that a coloring page style of drawing falls short of sharing her beauty. But I can tell you that she is so kind that her beauty makes her glow - in mortal or Fairy form.

Robin drawn by Robin Lyman the Coloring page Artist

This is my free coloring pages blog. 

My name is Robin Lyman, and I drew all these coloring pages 

except for a few drawn by a grandnephew and two grandnieces.  

Today's new drawing is my namesake bird. 



Male Robin near a Forest

To be clear, this is an American Robin, not the European Robin. American Robins live throughout most of North America. Many robins winter in some southern places and migrate back to northern regions. Others stay in place year-round. 

They are omnivores, and so 40% of their diet is invertebrates like insects and worms etc.  While 60% of the American Robin's diet is plant-based. They especially like berries. When robins eat a lot of honeysuckle, they tend to get intoxicated. Can you imagine a drunk robin?

Male robins have a darker head plumage and a brighter red breast. In fact, it is kind of a red-orange breast. Eggs are a distinctive light blue that is called robin-egg blue.

Princess of Egypt finds Moses coloring page

 


Princess of Egypt finds Moses

Pharaoh had ordered all male Hebrew babies to be killed. This was a barbarous action. Jochabed was a Levite mother who wanted to save her baby boy. So she put him in a basket and set him into the River Nile. She certainly prayed for him, and God heard her prayers.

Moses' basket (with him alive and well inside) was found by the Princess of Egypt. She adopted Moses and raised him as her son. So Moses was highly educated and had every privilege of a Prince of Egypt. Moses went on to flee Egypt and return as the deliverer. He was an instrument in the hand of God to free the Children of Israel from Egyptian bondage. Of course, God had also heard the prayers of the Children of Israel.  So one lesson here is that God hears and answers prayers. 

In this drawing you can see part of a pillar and the bull rushes that line parts of the River Nile.

Skyphia the Jellyfish Mermaid coloring page


This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's new drawing is of a Mermaid...

A Jellyfish Mermaid.


 

Skyphia the Jellyfish Mermaid


Jellyfish Mermaids, like Skyphia, love jellyfish  All Merpeople are actually immune to jellyfish sting so that is not a problem at all.  Here we see Skyphia with several species of jellyfish and other marine animals nearby, at a coral reef. Skyphia got to choose her name of adulthood and so she chose the name Skyphia because true jellyfish are in the Class: Scyphozoa. Do you see the similarities? 

See if you can find the different animals. I am only naming one of the jellyfish. The biggest one is a Portuguese Man-O-War. Then there is a lobster. There are 3 types of coral. Can you identify the brain coral? There are some reef fish - 3 species - including an eel. There is also a sea turtle and a shark. There is a squid and a trio of sea worms, AKA sand worms. The plants include kelp. But kelp is not a plant. It is a type of organism in the Kingdom: Protista.

More Easter 2026 Coloring Pages

This is my last Easter post this year. This is my free coloring pages blog. 

This first drawing is a portrait of Jesus. 


Jesus, a Portrait
This is a simple portrait with no background. Feel free to add any type of background.

Jesus willingly gave His life for us. To quote Elder Gong, "Christ's Atonement changes everything."
Because Jesus Christ paid the eternal price for our sins, we can repent. Because Jesus died and then was resurrected, WE will one day be resurrected and get immortal bodies. Then, if we repented and strove to do better, we will get to live in glory with our Heavenly Parents and our spouse and family for all eternity. 




My granddaughter colored this drawing. 





Jesus being led to Golgatha

Jesus had to carry His cross. There is some thought that he had to carry the crosspiece, not the entire cross. I did not draw them, but certainly many people would have lined the path to Golgatha, where Jesus was crucified. I have previously posted new resurrection drawings this Easter Season.

NOTE: These drawings are found, in printable form, by clicking on the "Holidays" button. Then scroll down to the bottom of the "Easter" section. These drawings are religious drawings, so they will also be found at the bottom of the "New Testament" section under the "Religious" button.

Jesus begins to Atone for Our Sins

Happy Easter Season!

Today on this coloring page blog, I am posting a drawing I did of Jesus.


 

Jesus begins to Atone for Our Sins


Easter Season

Yes, I love the idea of the Easter Bunny

Family egg hunts can be both fun and funny

Personally, I like Robin Eggs

As a kid, for this candy, I begged

And dyeing Easter eggs can be fun to do

And even eating one or two. 


But let's also remember the reason

For the great Easter Season


Jesus had a great job to do

He paid for the sins of me and you

We all lose our grasp on the Iron Rod

Sinning at all separates us from God

But since for our sins, Christ paid that great price

We can still repent and have eternal life


NOTE: This drawing can be found in printable form by clicking on the button labeled "Holidays." Then just scroll down to the bottom of the "Easter" section. This coloring page will also be posted at the end of the New Testament section of the "Religious" section.

I drew these in celebration of Easter and the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Resurrected Jesus Outside His Tomb

Because Jesus was resurrected, we all will one day be resurrected.



Jesus appears to Mary Magdalene after His Resurrection

The first person to see Jesus after His resurrection was Mary Magdalene. He told her to not touch Him because He had not yet ascended to His Father.

Jesus ascended to His Father, but Jesus returned to visit with His disciples for 40 days.

Joseph meets His Brothers in Egypt coloring page

 This is my free coloring pages site, or blog.

Today's new drawing is of Joseph who was sold into Egypt... when he met his brothers there.


Joseph meets His Brothers in Egypt

THIS is a stylized drawing - done in a modified ancient Egyptian style of drawing. The drawing shows when Joseph greets his brothers. These same 10 brothers had sold him into slavery. Joseph had suffered, even having been falsely accused and imprisoned... but he had triumphed. He interpreted the Pharaoh's dreams, and he, Joseph, was put in as the number 2 man in Egypt. 

Joseph had predicted an upcoming 7 good years of harvest... followed by 7 years of famine. He had been put in charge of storing the excess food for when the famine hit.

Meanwhile, over in Canaan, Joseph's father and his 11 brothers and their families were suffering due to the drought and famine. So, Jacob, or Israel, had sent his sons to Egypt to get food. Originally, only the 10 oldest brothers went, and the youngest son, Benjamin, was left at home. 

After leading them on a bit, Joseph forgave his older brothers and told them that it was all meant to be. 

Note: This drawing is found in printable form by clicking on the button labeled "Religious." Then scroll down to the last title on the "Old Testament" part of the list.

A Butterfly Fairy and a Moth Fairy coloring pages

 This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's new drawings are of a couple of Butterfly Fairies.


Erina the Butterfly Fairy

Erina is a Butterfly Fairy. She is seen here on a branch of a tree. She is resting after a full day of helping the butterflies pollinate flowers. Butterflies also receive protection from Butterfly Fairies. They can use their magic to confuse a bird or other predator, like a frog. 




Polilla the Moth Fairy

Did you know that moths are also pollinators? Some flowers are primarily pollinated by moths... at night. Interesting fact, Moth Fairies have feathery antennae, like most moths have. However, Butterfly Fairies rarely have any antennae.  Moth Fairies can light up the end of their wand to attract moths. Moth Fairies have large eyes for seeing at night. 

NOTE: These drawings, or coloring pages, are drawn by me for you to print and color. Just click on the button labeled "Fantasy, Myths, and Circus" and scroll down. IF you are accessing this page in March or April of 2026 then you will find these drawings at or near the bottom of the list.

Leprechaun Couple with Pot of Gold and Peacock Butterfly coloring page

 Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Since it is the day before Saint Patrick's Day, I drew a 

Leprechaun couple.



Leprechaun Couple with Pot of Gold and Peacock Butterfly

Have you ever thought that maybe leprechaun gold was leprechaun-sized? With the current price of gold at $5,022.80 per ounce... this little pot of probably 250 ounces of gold would still be a LOT of money.  Do the math: 

250 oz of gold x $5022.80 = $        ?      

See below for the answer... but try doing the problem first. Calculator allowed.

But first, let me tell you about the Peacock Butterfly. It is a species found all over Europe, the UK, and, of course, Ireland. It has bright eye spots on its wings to startle predators. 

NOTE: This drawing is found in printable form by clicking on the button labeled "Holidays," then scrolling down to the Saint Patrick's Day section. This drawing will be at or near the bottom of that small list. 

Now, scroll down and search for the answer to how much this little pot of leprechaun gold might be worth. But be sure to calculate the problem first. OR, at least estimate it by, in your head, multiplying 5 by 25 and adding 4 zeros to the end of the number.

Starships leaving Orbit coloring page

 This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's new drawing is a simple drawing of starships of the future.





Starships leaving Orbit

These are clearly starships of the future. They are of our future, or they are from a different sentient civilization. We, members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, believe that God has millions of worlds peopled by His children. The ships above, IF they are Terran ships, then mankind has developed faster-than-light travel, because these planets and moons are clearly not from our solar system.  These two starships are leaving the orbit of the nearby planet. 

NOTE: (Science Fiction IS a type of Fantasy.)  Next, scroll down to the bottom of the drawing or coloring page titles list.  Then click on this title. If you are accessing this page in March or April of 2026, you will find this title at or near the bottom of the list. Have fun coloring!
