Autumn Mandala #13 - Free Coloring Page

A small round-petalled flower sits at the heart of this mandala, held inside two thin concentric circles. Around it spreads a ring of curling spirals, followed by a rosette of eight pointed petals, each topped with a small fan-shaped crest marked with dots. The wide outer band pairs tall teardrop shapes with vertical ridges — reading as acorns or buds — with veined oak leaves and small clusters of round berries, the whole sequence repeating eight times around the circle. A plain, crisp double circle closes the design, with no beading or cut edge.

The linework stays fine throughout, but detail density rises sharply in the outer band, where leaf veins, berry clusters and ridged acorns create many small cells to fill. The center and spiral ring, by contrast, leave open, generous shapes that are quick to color. This mandala coloring page suits someone already comfortable with fine detail; expect a solid session for the outer band alone, and an hour or two overall for the whole sheet.

Start at the center and spiral ring with fine markers to keep a light hand, then switch to well-sharpened pencils for the ridged acorns and berry clusters, the most delicate areas of the drawing. For this printable mandala, letter or A4 paper at 200gsm or heavier will keep fine marker tips from bleeding through on the busiest sections.
