Circles and Petals Mandala #32 - Free Coloring Page

At the center, a small empty circle forms the heart of the mandala. A first ring of small pointed oval petals surrounds it like sun rays, then a thin circle, a row of round beads, a row of teardrop petals, and a second row of beads. A wide circle closes this core, around which sixteen double-outlined petals, layered like an open flower, spread to the square frame bordering the page.

The line work is even and clean, with no shading; the outer petals carry a double outline forming two slim bands to fill side by side. Those large shapes suit a child coloring this mandala for the first time, while the two beaded rings ask for a steadier hand. This mandala coloring page takes about twenty minutes for just the petals, or nearer forty once every bead is filled in.

Start with the large outer petals using markers or paint, then switch to a fine colored pencil for the beads at the center, the most delicate part of the drawing. This printable mandala keeps its crisp lines at A4 size on paper of at least 200 gsm, heavy enough for markers without bleeding through the sheet.
