Lotus Flower in Bloom Coloring Page

Pointed petals stack in three distinct layers around the lotus bloom, each tier slightly offset from the one below it in this coloring page. The circular seed pod at the flower's center contains small circular dots arranged in a natural pattern. Lily pads feature prominent veins that branch from central points to curved outer edges, while concentric ripples spread across the water surface in varying widths. The layered petal arrangement needs gradual shading from dark bases to lighter tips to create dimensional depth. Try blending pink to white on the petals while keeping the seed pod in contrasting yellows or greens. The lily pads might use different green values-perhaps emerald for some and yellow-green for others-to distinguish each pad, while soft blue-grays in the water ripples will make the botanical elements stand out.
