Dahlia Flower Coloring Page

Pointed petals stack in tight concentric circles, building outward from a small central core to create the dahlia's distinctive pompom shape on this coloring sheet. Each petal curves slightly backward at its tip, creating dimensional depth across the bloom's surface. The two serrated leaves show prominent center veins with smaller branching lines extending toward their toothed edges. The densely packed petal arrangement needs careful color planning-try graduated shading from dark centers to lighter petal tips for realistic depth, or assign different hues to alternating petal rings for a rainbow effect. The textured leaf edges benefit from darker tones along the serrations and lighter shades between the veins. Consider using analogous colors like pink-to-coral or purple-to-magenta across the bloom for natural blending practice.
