Mermaid Pearl Necklace Coloring Page

About this page

On the seabed, a mermaid dangles a string of round pearls between her hands, studying them with a pleased smile. Her wavy hair flows to the right with a small starfish tucked in, and her top is patterned with a little shell and leafy sprigs. The scaled tail curves down behind a rock and flicks out to the right in a ribbed fin. To her left, a large open shell with fan-shaped ribs rests on the rock, its cushioned inside waiting for the necklace. In front, a starfish and a spiral shell sit among rows of pebbles, and tall seaweed rises on both sides with a bit of branching coral at the far left. Bubbles float above. There is a lot to look at, from scales to rocks to ridges, so it fits kids who like a medium level of detail and enjoy a small story in the picture.
