Advanced Designs Coloring Pages

If your child loves patterns, symmetry, and a bit more creative challenge, our advanced designs coloring pages are the perfect next step. These aren't your simple outline sheets—think intricate mandalas like the Big Friendly Sun Mandala and Flower Mandala with Layered Petals, detailed animal portraits such as the Peacock with Fanned Tail and Owl Sitting on a Patterned Branch, and geometric patterns that invite careful color choices. They're free to print and designed to keep kids aged 7–12 engaged and proud of their finished work. Pair this with our Hard / Detailed and Mandala coloring pages, or browse the full Mandalas & Patterns collection.

What You'll Find

This collection blends nature, geometry, and imagination into pages that reward patience and attention to detail. You'll discover serene mandalas like the Heart Mandala with Simple Shapes and Geometric Star Mandala, wildlife scenes including a Butterfly with Patterned Wings and Elephant with Decorated Blanket, and lovely natural subjects such as the Garden of Tulips and Leaves Pattern, Seashell and Starfish Pattern, and Fish Swimming in a Circle. There's also the cheerful Rainbow and Clouds Pattern for kids who love sky scenes. Each coloring sheet is printable as a PDF on standard A4 paper, so you can print as many copies as you need.

Printing Tips

These designs feature dense patterns and fine lines, so a good-quality printer and regular printer paper work best. Fine-tip colored pencils or gel pens are ideal—they let kids stay within the smaller sections without smudging. Thicker markers can work for larger areas, but thinner tools give much better control on intricate sections like mandala rings and patterned wings. If your child is new to advanced coloring, remind them that there's no rush; taking time to blend colors or try new combinations makes the experience even more rewarding.
