Art Nouveau Mandala #17 - Free Coloring Page

Six heart-shaped petals fan out into a rosette around a six-pointed star so small it almost disappears among the five tiny blossoms circling it. A second band repeats those hearts on a larger scale, each trailing curling scrollwork like vine tendrils. A third ring then alternates closed bell flowers, round buds and slender feather-like leaves, all linked by further spirals. The circle that closes the design stays plain, with no beading or scalloped cut.

The linework is fine and dense, packed with small spirals that reward a steady hand more than speed. Surfaces stay small throughout, especially in the scroll band and the bell flowers along the rim, which makes this printable mandala better suited to someone already comfortable with fine-tip coloring. Expect roughly one to two hours to fill it in carefully.

Starting with the central star and its tiny blossoms is easier than diving straight into the scrollwork, which needs a fine liner or sharp pencil to stay inside the curls. For this mandala coloring page, printing on smooth 200gsm+ paper at A4 keeps ink from bleeding through and preserves the crispness of the spirals.
