Left-Swimming Fish With Mandala Eye and Scaled Body

A single large fish swims to the left with its mouth slightly open and its body tilted upward. The head holds a round eye at the center of a flower-like mandala, with leaf shapes fanned out around it. Behind the head, the body is split into bands. A wide middle section is filled with rows of small overlapping scales, while the bands above and below are packed with tiny swirls, flowers and leaves. The tall dorsal fin, the forked tail, the pectoral fin and the lower fins all have fine straight lines running through them. Try a gradient on the scale section, such as teal fading to blue, then use bright markers for the swirl bands so they pop. Fine-tip pens work best for the small spaces. The page is free to print and suits teens and adults who like slow, detailed coloring.
