Alphabet Animals

I've created a separate blog for my printable stuff, so I thought I'd share some colored versions of the most recent batch of finished drawings. Be sure to go check out my printables blog at Print-a-Penguin. Happy coloring!

S is for Seal Free Coloring Page

So, I'm pretty pleased with myself that I'm making my second post in about a week. At this rate, I may actually finish my coloring book before Christmas!

Hope you enjoy the seal. (Click on the pic, print, and color!) I've also been coloring these and posting them as merchandise at my zazzle.com shop, so let me know if you've got any requests for other letters.

Oh, and if you live the Salt Lake area, I highly recommend going to the Layton Barnes & Noble on Friday from 6-8 pm. My friend and personal comic strip hero Adam Koford will be signing copies of his hilarious book, "The Laugh-Out Loud Cats Sell Out". If you're a fan of humor, it's likely you'll be happy you did.

New Coloring Book Page

Thanks for all the great comments about the coloring pages. I've really enjoyed posting them here, and hope to keep it up for a while. (At any rate, it's nice to re-purpose artwork for my blog. I can be a little lazier and still post frequently.)

As everyone knows, D is for Duckling. It's also for Dog, Dolphin, Deer, Donkey, Dove, Dormouse, and Dinosaur. But I drew a duckling, so deal with it.

You know the drill... Click on the pic and print. Color with your box of 64 Crayolas. Stick on fridge. Repeat.

Contest Winner and New Free Coloring Page

Congrats to FLASHFOX for winning the "Name the X Animal" Contest. (Contact me through the email account on my profile with your address info so I can send your original drawing.)

As you can see, the winning idea was Xenops, which is a species of South American bird.

Thanks, Flashfox, for the great idea. And thanks to everyone else's great entries. I'll be holding another contest soon for a different letter, so stay tuned!

W is for Whale - Free Coloring Book Page & CONTEST

I had a lot of fun posting the last free coloring page, so here's a new one for you to enjoy! Click on the image and print!

I'm officially announcing the "Name the X Animal Contest". Since I'm having a heck of a time choosing a good animal to represent "X" in my alphabet coloring book, I'm leaving it up to you.

Here's how it's going to work:
1. Post your comments here with the name ideas. (I'll also count the ones on the previous post.)
2. On May 23rd, I'll pick my favorite. (If multiple people suggest the same animal, I'll put the entries in a hat and draw one.)
3. The winner will receive the original artwork for the "X" animal and my eternal gratitude.

O is for Otter - Free Coloring Book Page

I'm making a coloring book for my nieces and nephews. The theme is "Alphabet Animals". I just finished this page, so I decided I'd upload it here in case you have little ones who like to color. Click on the image to go to a print quality image, and enjoy!

P.S. Any good suggestions for X? Xylophone is NOT an animal.
