About Tall-Finned Angelfish Beside Water Leaves Coloring Page
Tall triangular fins stretch above and below the striped angelfish in this picture. Its left-facing head sits near a small water plant, whose narrow leaves curve up from rounded stones. The fish is much taller than the plant, giving the page a clear main shape and a smaller companion to color. Long body bands can carry strong contrasting shades, while the many fin sections suit a finer pencil point. Work from the broad stripes into the fins instead of trying to finish every small section first. The pointed tips look clear when the colors stay inside their outer contour. A subdued green plant and gray stones will keep the eye on the angelfish. This is one of the more involved pages in the easy fish group because of the fin rays, so it works well when a child wants more than a plain fish outline.

What you need
Printed page · Tracing paper · Pencil
- Lay tracing paper over the fish and trace only the outside of the upper and lower fins.
- Lift the tracing and draw a few long strokes that follow each fin’s sweep.
- Return to the coloring page and use the same stroke direction inside the fin sections.
Another way to try it: Trace the plant leaves instead and compare their upward curves with the pointed fins.
