Hello Everyone! Today I have a special new printable collection for you all: Free Watercolor Adult Coloring Book Printable Sheets! These coloring sheets are great for kids and adult alike, but this set is designed to be grown up friendly. This week’s theme is Woodland Forest Animals (a Fox, Bear, Squirrel, & a sweet Badger)
How fabulous is this? I mean, Adult Coloring Sheets just got an upgrade! A watercolor upgrade! I think painting is so therapeutic, so this collection of printables is something I wanted to create as a craft for my kids and I to do together.
If you use these free forest animal printables, please feel free to tag me on Instagram (@welivedhappilyeverafter) so I can see your coloring creation masterpieces!
I made these coloring sheets specifically for my daughter, June. She’s quite the little artist
I’ve always been an animal lover, and grew up drawing & painting animals. So it’s only natural that as an adult I create some printable coloring sheets for my kids (and myself!)
With these coloring sheets you can really let your imagination go wild & can be used with markers, pencils & paints. Or just print and hang for some fabulous black and white animal wall art.
These coloring sheets are sort of Beatrice Potter inspired. Nothing better than Peter Rabbit! I can totally see these as forest themed baby shower decorations. Or as a craft for a girls night in. Sign me up!
To use this set in a more sophisticated way than traditional coloring sheets, use watercolor paints with them! I recommend using a thick, heavy watercolor paper. I’m going to share the type I personally use with my affiliate links below. It gives the finished piece a beautiful texture.

Thanks so much for these adorable images…..great work!
You are welcome! Enjoy them!
Thank you so much for these! My two grand daughters will love coloring these. Question though: where did you get the wooden hanger that these are displayed in? I would love this to hang up their art.
Aww- that is so awesome! I’m sure they will love it. I went ahead and added the link to the frame next to the links for the paper & paints I use. Hope that helps!
These are adorable!! Such a great job!!
I just wanted to ask if you allow them to be used for commercial use?
Hey! Thanks for asking, but no. I do not allow my artwork to be used for commercial purposes.
Thank you.
How are we suppose to prevent the printer ink from smudging when paint it with watercolor? Even printed on 200g or 300g watercolor paper weight, the ink still smudge.
