Afua the African Mushroom coloring page

You have found my free coloring pages blog.

Here there are over 2800 drawings that I have drawn. 

The drawings are all available for you to print and color.

Today's new drawing is of an African Fairy.

Afua the African Mushroom Fairy

You may ask yourself, "Why is Afua not a Dragonfly Fairy?  The answer is that she has butterfly-style wings.  True Dragonfly Fairies have lacewings like a dragonfly.  

About Afua.  She is a beautiful African Mushroom Fairy.  The mushroom she is standing on is found only in Africa.  Her wings are also from an African butterfly.  So since she is clearly standing on a mushroom she is most likely a Mushroom Fairy.  She gathers mushrooms for her village.  Fairies know which mushrooms are good for gourmet eating and which mushrooms have medicinal value.

Although Afua is not a Dragonfly Fairy I want to tell you about this pretty dragonfly.  It is a new species to Science.  The dragonfly is a Polychrome Jewel Butterfly.  It has an iridescent dark green or black thorax and a red-orange and yellow or blue abdomen with a black tip on the end.

A New Armored Sauropod from India Tharosaurus indicus - dinosaur coloring page

You have found my free coloring pages blog.

There are many many drawings here that I have drawn and you can download them for free!

Today's new drawing is of a new Sauropod from India.

New Armored Sauropod from India Tharosaurus indicus

Today's new dinosaur is a bit of a game-changer.  Sauropods were the biggest land animals to ever walk on Earth.  This new discovery is of a somewhat early Sauropod that was found in India. There is even thought that perhaps the early prosauropods or other common ancestors originated in what is now India.  It seems to have lived there when India was still part of Pangea.  It or its ancestors radiated throughout the world.  Then the huge Sauropods went on to evolve on every single continent. 

Tharosaurus was a type of Diplodocus and is the earliest known to science. It is the first found in India.  Tharosaurus indicus was about half as big as its later cousin Diplodocus.  It was about 43 feet long or around 13 meters.  It had a mass of around 26 metric tonnes or about 56 tons.  That would be about 112,000 pounds.

Shannonia the Lake Fairy with Mallard Ducks coloring page

 This is my free coloring pages blog.

Today the new drawing for printing and coloring 

is of a Lake Fairy named Shannonia.

Shannonia the Lake Fairy with Mallard Ducks

Shannonia is a Lake Fairy.  She technically is also a Bird Fairy who loves and cares for Mallard Ducks. Lake Fairies are a type of Water Fairy.   Some Water Fairies have fin-like wings for swimming in the water.  Of course, they can still fly with their wings.   This Lake Fairy is about 3 feet tall.  She can easily transform to her natural Fairy size of 5 inches or even transform to full mortal size. Like nearly all Fairies, Shannonia is wearing her flying belt or Balteaus Volantum.  This allows her to fly at great speed and for great distances.  Without it, she would probably not be able to fly with the Mallards.  Of course, all Fairies with wings can fly without the flying belt, however, they just can't fly as far or as fast when they don't have a flying belt. It may come as a surprise to you, but Fairies actually have high tech.

She is the protector and even friend of waterfowl that come to her lake.  She speaks their languages and she can and does fly with them... sometimes on their migrations.  However, she only flies about 100 miles from the lake she calls home.  Sometimes Shannonia will fly upriver and downriver of the river that connects to her lake.  Lake Fairies are also often called River Fairies.  I suppose some River Fairies prefer the faster-moving water so they are exclusively River Fairies.  Maybe it would be best to call these two types of Fairies "Fresh Water Fairies."  After all, rivers and lakes are both fresh water. 

By the way, the Mallard Ducks that are in this drawing are the most common ducks in North America.  The males have an iridescent green or almost blue-green head and are called "greenheads."

I should also mention that the name "Shannonia" means lake or wetlands or wise river or even possessor of wisdom.  But a shanonia is a wetland with grasses, reeds, and other herbaceous plants.  Since there is a palm tree or cycad tree you know this wetland area is probably somewhere in Southern North America... like Florida or maybe parts of Mexico.  If you want feel free to draw more plants in this drawing.  There is plenty of room for more plants.

Mermaid named Reagan with Frigate Birds coloring page

 Today's new drawing, on this free coloring pages blog, 

is a drawing I did of a Mermaid.

Mermaid named Reagania with Frigate Birds

Mermaids are often friendly with other ocean creatures, such as these Frigate Birds.  Did you know that a Frigate Bird can fly without landing for 2 months?  

This Mermaid is named Reagania.  She is a beautiful blonde Mermaid who is seen here brushing her hair.  Mermaids will brush their hair both underwater and while sitting on a rock or the seashore.

Jesus Christ in the Americas coloring page

 Welcome to my free coloring pages blog...

or welcome back!

While watching our church today I drew a picture of Jesus Christ.

I was watching an online Zoom feed of church instead of attending in person

 because we still are getting over COVID-19. 

Jesus Christ in the Americas

In the Book of Mormon Another Testament of Jesus Christ, we read of 

the resurrected Savior visiting His people in the Americas.  He taught them His

Gospel of Faith, Repentance, and Baptism plus the Laying on of Hands 

for the Gift of the Holy Ghost.  

NOTE:  This drawing is basically a portrait so it kinda fades out at the bottom.  

To get to the printable version of this drawing you need to click on the

"Religious" button and scroll down to the bottom of the 

"Restoration or Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saint topics... 

including the Book of Mormon drawings" section.

Then click on the title that says "Jesus Christ in the Americas" 

and you will get the printable version of this drawing. 

Please know that some of the first drawings on the long lists require

permission to print.  It will automatically send me a request for permission

to print.  However, this is only for the first few drawings.  Google put in 

a security update that caused this problem, however, most of my drawings can 

be printed automatically and don't need special permission.  

Tyrannosaurus mcraeensis from New Mexico - and Ancestor of T. rex coloring page

Welcome or welcome back.

This is a free coloring pages blog. 

Today's new drawing that you can print and color

is of a new type of Tyrannosaurus called

Tyrannosaurus mcraeensis

 

Tyrannosaurus mcraeensis

This large dinosaur was found in New Mexico.  It was as large as T. rex or about 40-44 feet long.

It was an ancestor to the T. rex that appeared later.  Tyrannosaurus macraeensis lived 72- 73 million years ago.  Tyrannosaurus rex appeared around a million years ago.  Tyrannosaurus mcraeensis had a narrower snout - especially it had a narrower jaw.  It also had smaller teeth than T. rex.  But since it had a clear overbite, its top teeth probably were visible when the mouth was closed. 

Tyrannosaurus mcraeensis was still clearly the top predator of its day in Western North America. 

Tyrannosaurus mcraensis fossils were found several years ago but only recently has it been identified as a unique species.  It was found in the state of New Mexico in the United States of America.  There is another unique thing about this new to-science species.  It lived around 100 miles from the nearest ocean.  Most if not all other large Tyrannosaurs appear to have lived within 10-50 miles from the coast.  

There were actually several known species of large Tyrannosaurids.  These include Albertosaurus, Daspletosaurus, Gorgosaurus, Lythronax, and Tarbosaurus - to name a few.  There were other smaller ancestral Tyrannosaurids.  This new find, Tyrannosaurus mcraeensis, was actually fully as big as Tyrannosaurus rex, and that is probably the most surprising find. 

NOTE:  This drawing, in printable form, can be found by clicking on the button labeled "Paleontology."  Then scroll to the bottom of the "Mesozoic Life" part of the Paleontology list.  New drawings are found at the bottom of the list.  Of course, this will only be a new drawing now... in early January 2024.  If you are accessing this page at a later date then the printable drawing's title will be further up the list of Mesozoic Life drawings.  Below is an older drawing of a large Tyrannosaurid.  This smaller Tyrannosaurid is from what is now the state of Utah, USA.  This drawing is from a previous post.  So the printable version of this drawing is found further up the list of Mesozoic drawings that are on the Paleontology page.

Lexionia the Healer Fairy rescues a Lost Goldendoodle coloring page

This is my free coloring pages blog.

There are almost 3000 drawings that you can print and color.

Since I am feeling better after round 3 of COVID-19 

I have been doing some detailed drawings of people.

Of course, these real people are being drawn as Fantasy Characters.

Yesterday's drawing and today's drawing are of Fairies. 

Lexionia the Healer Fairy

Lexionia is one of those Fairies who internalizes her wings and works in the mortal world among us.  She actually works as a dog groomer.  Her OTHER job, in the Fairy Realm, is rescuing lost pets.  She has a particular affinity for finding lost doggies.  Here Lexionia is rescuing a lost Goldendoodle puppy. 

You can see that Lexionia (Lexi for short) is coming in for a landing.  Since the Goldendoodle puppy is small you should know that Lexi is not in full human size.  Like all Fairies, Lexi can transform from her 5-inch tall Fairy size to about 5'5" mortal size.  Here she is about three feet tall.  She can actually transform to any size between five inches and six feet tall.
