Baby Dragon Guarding Treasure Chest Coloring Page

An excited baby dragon stands with its wings opened wide. It is hugging its treasure chest against its heart. The chest is heavily decorated with metal bands, a big lock, rivets, and boards that have a lot of grain detail. The top of the chest reveals some coins and gives a glimpse of what else is hiding in the chest. The look of pride on the dragon's face shows how happy it is, along with the large shining eyes and small pointed horns. The scales cover the strong, small body. Lightly leafed plants frame the background with texture. Many opportunities exist for colors in this design, including gold for the treasures, chrome colors for the metals, jewel tones for the scales, and green for the leaves.
