Relaxation Mandala #9 - Free Coloring Page

At the center, an eight-petaled flower surrounds a small circle, each petal traced with a double inner outline. A thin circle separates it from a tight band of small comma-shaped scrolls. A second circle opens onto a wide ring of scalloped fan shapes, with a paisley curl tucked between each wave. At the outer edge, pointed leaves alternate with small teardrops before two close, thin circles close off the design.

The line stays fine across the whole drawing, with doubled outlines on the central petals and inside the scroll band, which multiplies the small spaces to fill. The largest areas sit on the flower petals and the scalloped fans; everything else - scrolls, leaves, teardrops - calls for a steady hand. This mandala coloring page suits an experienced colorist, worth an hour or two of unhurried work.

A fine liner or a sharpened pencil moves more precisely than a broad marker through the scroll band and the points of the outer leaves, the tightest parts of the design. Start with the central flower before working outward into the tighter rings. Printed on A4 paper at least 160 gsm, this printable mandala holds up well to fine-tipped pens without bleeding through.
