Oval Framed Portrait of Martin Luther King Jr.

Oval Framed Portrait of Martin Luther King Jr. coloring page

Coloring guide

A black-and-white portrait of a man with short dark hair and a mustache sits inside a large oval outline. He wears a suit jacket with notched lapels, a collared shirt, and a necktie, and his eyes look slightly off to the side. The hair, mustache, and sideburn area are filled in solid black, while the eyebrows and lips have darker shaded areas. Curved bubble letters along the bottom edge read MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. DAY. The face has plenty of open white space, so it works well for practicing smooth blending with skin tone pencils or markers. For a classroom idea, let kids color the portrait and the lettering, then write one sentence on the back about why we remember this day. This printable page is a calm activity for January lessons or a quiet moment at home.
