Bellflower Coloring Page (3 of 4)

Bellflower is one of the seven herbs of Autumn. The name comes from the balloon-like appearance of the buds. The deep blue-purple star-shaped flowers have a tranquil beauty like the autumn night sky. In a coloring book, mixing a little red with blue-purple gives a more noble impression. You can engage in this activity to improve your concentration while quietly feeling the arrival of Autumn.
This is a coloring book that can be used for recreation, nursing care facilities, day services, and brain training for the elderly. You can print for free in A4 size.

Make it look real

Star-shaped flowers can look flat, so darken the creases that run from the center out to each point. A balloon-shaped bud or two on the same stem adds charm and tells the flower's story.
