Dragon Resting Low and Puffing Swirly Flames

A dragon rests low to the ground with its head turned to the side, breathing out a big cloud of swirly flames from its open mouth. You can see sharp teeth, two long fangs, a narrow eye, and three pointed horns on top of its head, plus small spikes along its neck. The body is split into rounded sections, with bumpy plates on the belly and neck, a pointed row of spikes down the back, and a long tail curling toward the lower left. Each foot has curved claws. The flames have wavy, puffy edges that are fun to fill in. Try coloring the fire in layers of yellow, orange, and red, then pick two calm colors for the scaly body so the flames stand out. This free printable also works well for talking about how artists show breath or heat with simple curved lines.
