Art Nouveau Mandala #3 - Free Coloring Page

An open eight-point star sits at the heart of this mandala, ringed by five concentric bands: a rosette of slender points, a band of paired hearts and circles, a ring of finely stippled triangles, a border of spiraling scrollwork, and finally eight sharp-petaled flowers linked by vines and small leaves. The outer edge, shaped by those petals, forms a gently scalloped line rather than a clean circle.

The line stays thin throughout, but density shifts a lot: the small hearts, circles, and stippled triangles call for a fine felt-tip, while the petals of the eight flowers and the large scrolls leave wider spaces to fill. This mandala coloring page suits someone who has already tried adult coloring; plan on two to three hours to finish it carefully.

Start with the eight outer flowers and scrollwork, easier to hold a line in, before tackling the stippled zones and small hearts near the center, the most delicate part of the design. A fine colored pencil or a 0.3mm marker keeps ink from bleeding into these narrow spaces. For this printable mandala, use heavy paper (200gsm) in A4 or letter size, sturdy enough for markers.
