"What a Wonderful Variety!"
The wonderful world of coloring pages on the internet is here with a
vast collection of images to choose from. Save time and print your
images from here - don't go down to the store.
Go down to your local book store and you will find a great selection of coloring books, but you can get them right here! Free!
Print on quality paper
So get ALL you coloring pages free by printing them out from your
computer. The beauty of printing your own is that you can print on a
quality paper and preserve your child's creativity. Don't use those poor
quality copy sheets; they'll go yellow before sundown—unless of course
it is only a practice run.
For a child's early development
Coloring pages is a pretty good introduction to your child's early
development in the visual field; it can be art, paper sculpting,
crafting various things and getting her into communication with her
surroundings. Ever noticed how your child will be coloring in and then
stare at some object in the room for a moment, then carry on coloring
again? He or she may not be coloring in that particular object but will
have a picture in her mind's eye of what she wants to express. Yes, it
does help.
What NOT to do
"Mommy, what color shall I paint the sun?" You could say "Well, the
sun's color is yellow" and that would be a mistake. It is best to say
"What color do you think the sun is?" All too often parents and
teachers love to tell the young ones how something should be; what color
it should be. Please don't.
What kind of creativity do you want for your child?
There are digital pages or sheets online where your child can drop color
in digitally as you can in many photo-editing software. This is another
no-no unless your child is a computer geek or is on the road to
becoming one. There is little or no creativity in dropping color in an
enclosed area as you can do with a paint bucket tool. It is best to use
crayons or markers. Unless of course she wants to create cartoon
animations.
It's not necessary to be restricted by outlines
Please write to me about your child's creativity and if you have any
problems, I'd be glad to help. Go to the contact form on the Navigation
bar and send me an email. Thank you.
A Variety of Creative Coloring Pages Below
Your abstract coloring pages can be anything you like but not if it can be seen as something you see every day. If you can only just perceive it as being something like a car then it begins to fall into the category of being abstract art. You create images in your viewers eyes which makes your abstracts far more interesting.
Abstract Coloring Pages With A Difference
These Abstract Coloring images are different from the ones above as you will see as they have been in my sketch book for years. You can create an abstract image of almost anything from nature and make it into an abstract painting (it helps if you have pixel editing software.)
Angels come in all shapes, sizes, some fat others slim, some have wings or they can be disguised as ordinary mortals like you and me. So your next door neighbor may well be an angel! It is often said they can be in human form, full of laughter and good deeds. These lovely angels are often seen in religious paintings and they are all pretty much like humans don't you think? These angels can appear to be quite goofy at times so don't be fooled if they happen to like a bit of fun.
Animals of All Shapes and Sizes
There are thousands of animals for you to color in. Your favorite animal may be right here on these pages below - Perhaps a dinosaur or two, some well-rounded llamas who are vaugely related to the camels (without the hump) or even some alien creature. There are a few insect-like animals, half insect, half beast but they're all good fun to color in.
Keep on Your Toes With Ballet Coloring Pages.
Ballet dancers pictures can be a lot of fun to color in and can be quite creative also. You can make your dancers glow with contrasty colors to create quite a hit with your friends. Do you know how to use contrasty colors? If you scan down on the Site Map you will see a link to creating some fabulous color schemes. If you can get a "color wheel" showing all the primary, secondary and tertiary colors, (which you can purchase for a few bucks) you will be able to see what is each colors' opposite. It is good to know which colors complement other colors in your bag of tricks.
Nijinsky Would have Loved These Ballet Pages.
Ballerina coloring sheets for young passionate dancers who would love to be the next Super Star! Did you know some of the top performing ballet dancers like Polina Semionova and Darcey Bussel go through every movement in their minds first before going on stage? Some of the world's top performers always do this like Phelps in the Olympics. Coloring in these ballet sheets can get your mind around some of your movement, only if you are a dancer.
Colorful Butterflies For Inspiration.
A good start to learn all about color is from the lessons of mother nature. Butterflies have lovely symetrical shapes and their colors are even more wonderful with subtle changes in color. Mother nature sure does teach us a lot. Butterflies can be seen in wide range of geometric shapes and a bigger variety of decorative forms in their wings. You will notice brighter colors in these little aphids than any other living thing in nature.
Those Wonderful Cars and Trucks.
Make these car pictures come alive with your crayons or paint. You probably like the more modern cars? Or maybe one of the old timers? There's a big choice for you here which ever type of car you like. Some are slim while others are fat, some are huge like the monster trucks. My Granny Emma doesn't like those big things, she likes the dainty vintage model dating back to the Model-T Ford. I think she is getting a bit old. And you know she can't drive too well, she peeps through the steering wheel in her 1952 V8 Chevy and occasionally curses other drivers!
Crazy Cartoon Coloring, From Disney to SpongeBob To Politicians
It is great fun to color cartoon characters especially if they are kinda funny with big noses, chins that jut out like Jay Leno, large red ears with lobes hanging down to their shoulders. It is funnier if they are take-offs of your friends or neighbors. Some cartoons are an outright gross exaggeration of some well-known politicians and they can be exceedingly funny.
Screamingly Funny Cartoon Coloring.
Many cartoon characters in these cartoon coloring sheets, click on the link above and see some images you'd like to color in. They are mainly of people and animals, people can be quite comical but animals can be a scream if they are created by a well-known cartoonist. Try you hand with some of these zanier characters - then send 'em off to Flickr.
Cat Coloring, Big Cats To Tiny Kittens
Coloring in cats is good business if you are creating birthday cards or thank-you notes. People and kids love those furry kittens, my kids used to adore them but since those times they have been more interested in the bigger cats.
If you go into a greetings card store you will notice an abundance of cards with kitty cats, some with flowers others with small children. Maybe that is not your scene so you'll find here one or two sabre-toothed tigers ready for a meal.
Here again is the wonderful Cinderella whom we've seen so many times in Disneyland or the movie house. Cinderella's story has been around for a long time but it is still an enchanting story and my kids can watch it hundreds of times without getting bored.
Cinderella is such a colorful character you can use your softer pastel shades to enhance her lovely personality. Her step sisters can of course be colored in using vile colors to show their bad attitudes.
Online Coloring-in Pages To Print.
Here is the wonderful world of coloring pages you can print up and color in. You will discover plenty of images to get your creative juices flowing. Just a suggestion; try and not stay within the outlines, be creative and go outside here and there. This will make for a more interesting painting.

Printable Dinosaur Coloring-in Sheets .
These gargantuan animals were relatives of the crocodiles, alligators and birds? Monstrous mammals such as these were really huge and bigger than King Kong, they use to eat tons of food that would take us a lifetime to munch through.
I often wonder if they had peanut brains being so destructive as killing their close relatives. When I saw the movie Jurassic Park I wondered if they had a brain at all!
Dogs, man's best friend and also a friend or two for your coloring-in. Dogs are colorful animals with loads of personality and certain traits that leave a smile on your face. There are many YouTube videos about funny dogs and their antics and you've probably seen America's Funniest Home Videos?
These fire-breathing creatures sometimes get scorched lungs which makes it difficult for them to eat. Their food is usually cooked as it is swallowed but sometimes not very well. Do you know what their diet consists of? You could say "gasoline" but I doubt it as that stuff is uncontrollable. They are fun to color in with firey-red, orange and yellow with a nice cool background as a contrast.
Delightful Easter Coloring Pages.
Has mom or dad ever hidden those yummy chocolate eggs where you could never find them? Sometimes it can be so frustrating and you are salivating for a choc bite. Well, you can now order a choc detector, it has a built-in radar and can detect chocolate for up to five yards. Now that gives you more scope. Only problem is these devices cost more than a year's supply of chocolate. So dad probably won't get you one for Christmas.
