Tree of Life Mandala #17 - Free Coloring Page

At the center, a tree of life with roots woven into a Celtic knot splits into two symmetrical canopies; the branches curl into tight spirals and carry many small leaves, a few tiny flowers, and acorns. A small geometric flower sits at the top, another at the base of the trunk. A thin double circle closes around the tree, opening onto eight round medallions linked by a wavy interlace band, followed by a wider band that alternates, eight times, spiral scrollwork and leaf clusters dotted with small berries. The outer edge ends in a clean double line, with no beading or scalloping.

The linework stays fine throughout this mandala coloring page, but the open space varies: the medallions give large, empty circles that fill quickly, while the foliage and scrollwork pack in tiny tight areas. That contrast suits an experienced colorist, and the full piece takes roughly two to four hours.

Save fine liners or sharp pencils for the small leaves and root interlace, and start with the eight medallions before tackling the foliage. The acorns and knotted trunk stay the fiddliest parts. For a crisp result, this printable mandala works best at A3, on paper of at least 200gsm.
