Gary the Snail Outline from SpongeBob SquarePants
Coloring guide
This outline of Gary the Snail from SpongeBob SquarePants starts with two long eyestalks rising from a wavy, flat body. Each stalk ends in a big round eye with a small ring-shaped pupil. Gary's large, tall shell sits behind them, with a bold spiral near the bottom and several oval spots across the top. He rests on a bumpy, ruffled base line that makes him look slimy and gliding. There's no background at all, so the page stays clean, and the big open shapes are easy for little hands. For color, a bright pink or orange shell with a contrasting spiral looks nice, and the body could be soft yellow or light brown. Print it free for a classroom project or a weekend craft.

A suggested order, zone by zone — skip around as you like.
- 1Fill the big shell with tangerine orange, working in smooth strokes and leaving the spiral and spots for later.
- 2Color the snail's foot, both eyestalks, and the neck area in leaf green, keeping the bottom wavy base and tail end green too.
- 3Fill the spiral swirl and all the spots on the shell with golden yellow.
- 4Color the pupil of the right eye charcoal black and leave both eye whites white so they pop.
- 5Leave the background white, including the eye whites and the wavy bottom outline where it meets the paper.
- 6Optional: add a few light strokes of a darker shade of orange along the bottom of the shell for a bit of depth.
