About this coloring page

Two dragonflies spread their patterned wings above a pond filled with lily pads and two open water lilies. Tall, pointed grasses rise between the flowers, while curved lines trace ripples across the water. One large dragonfly fills much of the upper scene, with a smaller one flying nearby. Their segmented bodies and divided wings offer lots of little spaces to fill.

This detailed drawing suits kids ages 6–10 who enjoy taking their time with patterns and petals. Try colored pencils for the narrow wing sections, using pale blue and lavender alongside brighter dragonfly bodies. Pink flowers and several shades of green can bring variety to the pond plants, while a light touch of blue keeps the water soft.

Best paper

Standard printer paper works; 24–32 lb or cardstock is nicer for markers.

Printer settings
