Artistic Abstract Mandala #1 - Free Coloring Page

A dense sunflower with two layers of pointed petals fills the middle, wrapped around a small round rosette. Thin circles separate it from a scalloped band, then a wide ring where leafy hearts, tiny flowers with clustered dots, and curled spirals alternate. Another scalloped line leads into an outer crown of pointed petals and small blooms, closed off by a continuous edge of small joined half-beads.

The line stays fine and even throughout, though the shapes vary in size: the central petals and outer points give large, easy areas to fill, while the hearts, spirals and dot clusters in the middle band call for a fine tip. This printable mandala suits an experienced colorist more than a beginner and takes more than one sitting to finish.

Start with the central flower and the outer petals before tackling the busy middle ring of hearts and spirals, which holds the smallest shapes. Fine markers or a sharpened pencil keep the ink from bleeding into the scallops. For this mandala coloring page, print on stock of at least 160gsm in A4 so fine lines hold up under color.
