Apatosaurus Colouring Page

Meet Apatosaurus louisae, a fascinating prehistoric dinosaur with huge robust four-legged body, long gently raised neck and an extremely long tapering tail. The simple scene places it among fern meadow, conifers and a calm pond, leaving plenty of open space for young artists. Try soft grey, leafy green or dusty blue with gentle spots. Children can also invent a brand-new dinosaur palette and give the prehistoric plants their own shades. Use long strokes from the shoulders up the neck, then follow the tail carefully to its narrow tip. Start with the biggest body shapes, use lighter pressure near small details, and enjoy bringing this ancient world to life!
