Petals and Stamens Coloring Page

Six broad petals spread outward from a dense cone of stamens that dominates the magnolia's center in this coloring design. Each petal curves gently, showing fine veins that travel from where it attaches all the way to its rounded tip. Stamens of varying heights pack together around the reproductive column, their overlapping arrangement adding depth to the flower's core. Those tightly packed stamens need individual attention-use contrasting yellows or oranges on the anthers while keeping filaments in lighter cream tones to prevent them from blurring together. Each petal offers generous space for blending soft gradients, maybe transitioning from warm cream into blush pink, or leaving them pure white with gray shadows defining the folds. The botanical study format lets you practice rendering both the smooth petal surfaces and those fine linear stamen details with precision.
