What's In This Picture
As you look closer at this underwater world, you will find the mermaid at the center of the action. She wears a beautiful mermaid crown decorated with delicate seashells and a tiny starfish. Around her, tiny bubbles float toward the surface, while friendly fish swim by to say hello.
The ocean floor is teeming with life, featuring textured rocks and swaying seaweed that moves with the tide. You can also spot clusters of coral and more seashells scattered across the seabed. Every element, from the scales on her tail to the points on the starfish, offers a new detail to explore with your favorite colors.
Coloring Tips
For the mermaid's tail, try using a shimmering effect by blending two different shades of green or blue. You can make the mermaid crown stand out by using bright, contrasting colors like vibrant orange or pink for the coral and starfish. The bubbles look best with a very light touch of pale blue or even a hint of lavender to give them a translucent appearance.
Since the seaweed and rocks are at the bottom, using deeper earthy tones or dark greens can help create a sense of depth in the ocean. If you want to add some extra magic, consider using glitter pens for the seashells or the mermaid's jewelry to make them sparkle just like they would under the sunlight filtering through the water.
Did You Know?
Did you know that in many legends, mermaids were said to be able to control the weather? Sailors used to believe that a mermaid's mood could change the ocean from calm to stormy. Real-life starfish are also amazing because they can regrow their arms if they lose one!
Try This!
After finishing the page, you can try to draw your own version of a mermaid crown using shapes you find in nature. You might also enjoy looking up different types of coral and fish to see how many bright colors exist in the real ocean.
