Tibetan Mandala #3 - Free Coloring Page

Spoked wheels and small stylised animal silhouettes recur throughout this Tibetan-style mandala, alternating with diamond shapes across its outer bands. At the centre, an eight-petalled rosette surrounds a bare circle, edged by a thin ring of small S-shaped scrolls. Beyond it, a band of rectangular gate-like frames alternates with diagonal spirals at the four cardinal points. Further out, the spoked wheels reappear next to the animal figures and diamonds, and a final ring combines arcs, small pointed flames and the same silhouettes before the edge, closed by several clean, thin concentric circles.

The line stays fine and even from the centre to the rim, breaking the surface into countless small compartments that call for a steady hand, especially inside the frames and wheels. This mandala coloring page suits an experienced colourist who can sustain long sessions — expect several hours to work through all the rings without rushing the linework.

A fine liner or a hard-tipped pencil will hold these tight scrolls and animal silhouettes better than a broad marker; start with the central rosette before moving into the busier outer bands. For this printable mandala, choose A3 or heavyweight A4 paper (200gsm or more) so the finest details don't get lost in the print.
