Coloring page Mandala with Petals and Rays

A rosette made of many rounded petals radiates from a small, dark center. Inside the larger shapes, repeated thinner outlines create additional layers. Numerous straight lines fan out from the center, forming fans between the petals. The entire image is symmetrical and based on clean, smooth arcs, making the coloring page look even from every side.

In school, this pattern is perfect for art class when students compare color choices. It helps practice mindfulness and hand control while tracing lines along the arcs. This printable encourages calm filling of spaces, as each element has a clear outline. The illustration also facilitates discussions about symmetry, as the same shapes recur at equal intervals. The inner petal near the center organizes the entire layout, as it starts the subsequent layers of repeating forms. It looks great when colored in blue and green, as the double outline clearly separates the two colors. Use colored pencils and shade from the edges to the center with light strokes.

Color the pattern carefully and share it in the school newsletter.
