Cat Mandala #16 - Free Coloring Page

A cat's face fills the whole center of this mandala: cheeks and forehead built from tight spirals, triangular ears each holding a small coiled motif, wide almond eyes rimmed by a few dotted whiskers. A thin circle closes the face, followed by a ring of small round beads. A band of seated cats and spiral-threaded yarn balls comes next, then a strip of cells filled with paws, fish and yarn balls, before the edge breaks into triangular sunburst points, each one holding a tiny cat motif.

Linework stays fine throughout, especially in the swirls of the face and the tiny outer cells, so this printable mandala suits a steady hand better than a first attempt. The bead ring and sunburst points give wider spaces to rest between the detail. Plan on two to three hours for a careful pass.

Start with the eyes and the broad spirals before tackling the tiny outer cells, where a fine-tip marker keeps the ink from bleeding past the lines. Print this mandala coloring page on heavier paper, at least 200 gsm, in A4 or letter size, to keep the sunburst points and small yarn balls crisp.
