What's In This Picture
As you explore this page, you will find a central lion astronaut drifting near a massive planet with rings. Look closely to find a quirky teapot-shaped spaceship and a star-shaped rocket navigating through a field of asteroids and rocks. The sky is filled with twinkling stars and detailed constellations that connect the different parts of the scene.
In the lower corner, an alien plant grows on a floating space rock, while comets with long tails streak across the horizon. Don't miss the small fish in space helmet that follows the lion on his mission. The variety of shapes, from the smooth curves of the planets to the sharp points of the stars, provides a wonderful canvas for different coloring techniques.
Coloring Tips
For the lion astronaut, try using classic golden yellows and oranges for his fur to make him stand out against the dark sky. The spacesuit looks great in metallic silver or bright white, perhaps with glowing neon accents on the buttons and seams. You can use a mix of deep purples, blues, and blacks for the background to create a sense of deep space, while leaving the stars and comets bright yellow or white.
The planet with rings is a great place to experiment with gradients. Try blending two or three colors like pink and blue or orange and red to give the planet a gaseous look. For the rocket ship and teapot-shaped spaceship, feel free to use your favorite bold colors like bright red or electric green to make them look like high-tech vehicles from another world.
Did You Know?
Did you know there is actually a lion in the night sky? The constellation Leo is one of the oldest recognized patterns of stars. Ancient people looked up and saw the shape of a lion, much like our brave lion astronaut friend here. Even though real lions live on Earth, their namesake has been watching over the galaxy for thousands of years.
Try This!
After you finish coloring, try to give each of the planets a name and decide what kind of aliens might live there. You can also use a white gel pen or a silver marker to add extra tiny stars and shimmering details to the spacesuit and the tails of the comets. Try counting all the asteroids you can find hidden in the scene.
