Color choices
Dragon scales can lead the palette, with the mane, horns, whiskers, and flame-shaped tail reserved for contrasting accents. Color the broad body sections first, combining jade green with gold or crimson with orange. Use brighter tones on the hanging lanterns and softer shades for the moon, clouds, and sky. Finish with cool blues for the river, then echo lantern colors on the boats, bridge, stalls, and lotus blossoms.
Lantern Color Sequence
Set a repeating color sequence across the hanging lanterns, then reuse those shades on the boats and lotus blossoms to link the festival scene.
Before you print
Dragon Lantern Festival Coloring Page has about 1023 separate areas to color, so it is a detailed page. Sharpened colored pencils or fine-tip markers reach the small spaces, and it is easy to color one section at a time.
The PDF fills one US Letter page. On A4 paper, choose “Fit to page” so the frame stays inside the margins, and print one test copy before making a class set.
