Ariel Rests Her Cheek Beside Tall Seaweed

A mermaid with long flowing hair sits on a flat rock, leaning her cheek against one hand while she looks up and off to the side with a soft smile. Her other hand lifts a strand of hair. She wears a shell-style top, and her tail curls out at the bottom right with long fin lines. A starfish rests on the left side of the rock, and a few small shells are dotted along the front edge. Behind her, tall wavy seaweed leaves rise up in big ruffled shapes that fill the whole background. This is a printable page that suits quiet afternoon coloring. Try shading the seaweed in several greens and teals so the leaves look layered, then pick a bright color for the tail and a different one for the starfish so each part stands out. Younger kids can start with the large seaweed shapes, while older kids can add detail to the hair and fins.
