The Ultimate List of (Legit) Free Coloring Pages for Adults
Do you love adult coloring books? Or free coloring pages?
It doesn’t take long to find “free” adult coloring pages on the internet – however, so many of them are from unreliable sources who have stolen them (knowingly or unknowingly) from the original artists. Google Images and Pinterest are full of copies of pages from books that were never intended to be given out for free, hurting artists and confusing colorists!
That’s why I’ve put together this list of reliable sources for you to find free coloring pages for adults (and for kids too!).
Please share this blog post with your friends (on Facebook or Pinterest) or on your own website to help other colorists find these free coloring pages, and to help the artists get the exposure they deserve for being so generous with their free coloring pages!
If you’re an artist and you have a free resource to add to this list, please email me at hello (at) sarahrenaeclark (dot) com
Enjoy coloring!
Please note: While I’ve gone to a huge effort to check the reliability of these sources at the time of writing this, responsibility for the content lies solely with the owners of these linked websites. If you have any problems with your downloads, please contact the respective websites (not me!). If any of these links are found to be unreliable or untrustworthy, they will be removed from this list immediately. Please
also note that some of these free pages are hosted on websites that include advertising or other paid products. I have also included shopping links to products on Amazon, which uses my affiliate link (so I’ll get a small cut if you click on them).

THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!! Fantastic list, so happy to be able to “go direct”. Hate that pins on Pinterest don’t always go to the source. Grrrr. If any of these artists/groups HAVE a Pinterest/FB board – I’ll be following them! Wonderful work, thank you for sharing. I pinned & FB’d.

Here //mimi-panda.com/ you can turn your photo into personal coloring pages. It’s a very cool tool. On the Mimi Panda website are free coloring pages also for kids and adults.

I know this is an old post, but do you have a tutorial (video or article) about what to look for when wanting to find a printable page to color? Such as resolution, etc.? I assume the higher the resolution or dots per inch the better but what else might there be?
I want to color anime characters, so I check Deviant Art and other artist pages for them but sometimes the print quality is not that great.
Thank you.

I am beginning to see the benefit of individual printed pages. When you buy a book, you become tired of it before you finish it. And printables can be printed on any type of paper you want to use to match your tools. Thank you for this! I am enjoying your website.

Thank you Sarah SO much! I have been sick for the last year from the vaccine( once in a million reaction apparently), so I have only been able to work part time(so money is tight or non existent for coloring). I REALLY APPRECIATE YOU for doing this!
