Simple Cross And Square Pattern Mandala Coloring Page

An equal armed cross sits at the heart of this mandala, drawn as one bold outline with four arms of matching length that widen slightly toward their ends. It fills a plain circle that holds nothing else, so the cross reads clearly even from across a room. Around that circle runs a band split by short radial spokes into a dozen plain wedge segments, each one a simple four sided area with no detail inside it. Beyond the spokes sits the outer band, a ring of squares tilted so their corners point outward, every one drawn as an empty outline. The strokes hold a steady weight from the center out to the rim and nothing anywhere on the sheet is filled in solid, so the page prints cleanly and will not soak a sheet of thin paper. The design stops well short of the page edge and all four corners stay white. This one sits in the easy set but it rewards a slow approach, because two concentric rings invite a color sequence that runs the whole way around. Try every third square in a single strong shade for a spiral, or hold the cross to one color and let the rings lighten as they move outward.
