Garden Peony Portrait Coloring Page

Ruffled petal layers stack outward from the peony's central stamen cluster, creating waves of organic shapes that fill most of the page in this coloring page. Each petal edge curves and folds differently, with some turning inward while others flare outward. The two compound leaves at the stem base feature sharp-pointed lobes and visible veins that branch from central midribs. Dense petal arrangement offers room for gradual value shifts, moving from darker tones near the flower's heart to lighter shades at the outer edges. Try blending pinks that deepen toward magenta in the center, or use peachy corals that fade to cream. Leaf veining needs a slightly darker shade than the leaf base to make those structural lines pop against your chosen green.
