HORNED CARNOTAURUS #2

Behind a smiling, round-bodied dinosaur, thick smoke rises from the peak of a volcano tucked among tall coconut palms. Two curved horns sit above its large eyes, and its whole body is covered in oval spots of different sizes. It stands upright on stubby back legs with small clawed arms raised, mouth open to show its teeth. On the ground around it lie a few rounded rocks and clusters of ferns whose fronds curl into tight spirals. The dino's outline is drawn in a bold, even line, leaving wide open spaces on the belly, snout and thighs that are easy to fill in with a single colour - a good starting point for younger colourists. The background asks for more patience: each spot, each palm leaf and each fern spiral is a small shape of its own. This printable coloring page can suit a beginner working in broad strokes or an older child ready to spend twenty to thirty minutes on the finer background details. Working the spots and the volcano's smoke rings in the same one or two shades helps tie the busy background together instead of scattering the eye. Since the palms and ferns repeat across the page, picking one green for all of them keeps the jungle readable. Print this coloring page on thick 200 gsm paper at A4 size so markers won't bleed through.
