Honey Bee Landing on a Sunflower Coloring Page

One sunflower head takes over the entire sheet, cropped so its petals run off all four edges. That framing makes it feel close up and a little dramatic. The petals are long and pointed, layered two deep around the middle, with each one carrying a single crease line down its length. The seed disc in the center is textured with small scalloped marks packed tight, which is a fine surface for stippling with a pencil or dabbing with a marker tip. The bee has landed on the lower left of that disc, wings still open and carrying light vein lines, its banded body angled across the seeds. Because the flower and the bee share a warm color family in real life, the trick here is contrast. Push the disc toward a deep brown and keep the petals bright, or reverse it and give the disc a pale gold with darker petals. Either way the bee needs to sit apart from what it stands on. A couple of leaf shapes appear at the very bottom, and they are the only green on the page.
