Mellow Manatee in a Swirly Sea

This gentle manatee floats right in the middle of twirling, leafy shapes. Swirls cover her soft belly and chubby flippers, almost like she’s wearing her fanciest party costume. Her nose crinkles with tiny dots, and her warm, round eyes look straight ahead, as if she’s ready to play peekaboo. Every inch around her bursts with wild, vine-like patterns, curling and looping all around her big, squishy shape.

Behind her, petals and zigzags fan out in every direction, making her look like the star of a sea garden. The thick lines for her flippers and head give her a sturdy, friendly feel, while the skinny lines in the background dance and play. Crisp edges mix with whirly details, leaving piles of shapes and loops for little hands to fill with splashes of color.

Fun Fact!

Manatees have nostrils on the top of their snout that they can close tightly when they go underwater.

Coloring Tips

  1. 1 Use two blues for the manatee’s flippers and belly to add splashy texture.
  2. 2 Try rainbow stripes or a sunset gradient in the swirly background petals.
  3. 3 Add soft gray or light brown to the manatee’s nose for extra coziness.
  4. 4 Fill tiny mandala details with bright dots and dashes for fun surprises.
