Day of the Dead Celebration Coloring Page

Heart-shaped eye sockets anchor this sugar skull's face, each filled with crosshatch details and decorative edging for this coloring page. Scalloped semicircles march across the forehead above a geometric nose bridge, while tooth outlines create texture along the jaw. Chrysanthemum blooms explode on either side with pointed petals extending from dense centers, contrasting with the softer spiral formations of the corner roses. The symmetrical skull patterns need careful color matching on left and right sides to maintain balance-try matching your purples or blues across both eye cavities. Chrysanthemum petals benefit from gradient shading that starts dark at the base and lightens toward the tips, while the rose spirals could use warm reds or pinks that deepen between each curved layer. This traditional Day of the Dead design suits vibrant marker work or colored pencil blending on the skull's decorative elements.
