Astronaut Walking On The Surface Of The Moon Coloring Page

This astronaut is walking to the right across the moon, drawn from the side so the whole suit reads as one clear silhouette. The helmet is a large round bubble with a single small port on its side, and it sits on a thick collar above a padded chest. A square backpack rides high on the shoulders. Every part of the suit is left open and empty inside, with ribbed bands at the wrists, knees and ankle cuffs that break the legs into sections a child can color one at a time. The boots are the heaviest shapes on the page and they overlap slightly as the figure strides forward. Behind the figure a single long curved line runs from edge to edge and sets the horizon. Below it the ground carries about eight plain oval craters of different sizes, all of them blank inside. There is no shadow under the boots and no texture on the ground, so the lower half of the sheet stays open. That makes this an easy first page for a young child: big shapes, few lines, nothing fiddly.
