Free PDF coloring page to print or download.

An angel standing with both wings wide, eyes closed, a star held in both hands. This is the angel coloring page for someone who wants to properly settle in with a pencil: there is a real face, long pleats in the robe, and rows of feathers that take as long as you give them, with a pale and a darker tone per row. The Christmas candle is a much simpler shape.
