Apple Coloring Pages (Free PDF Printables)

By: Papaya Ink Team · Last updated: October 14, 2026

The apple is the fruit everyone can draw and almost everyone gets wrong. Too round and it turns into a tomato; too tall and it becomes a pear. The whole character lives at the top – a stem sitting in a small dip, a single leaf, a shoulder that is never quite symmetrical – and once you see that, you see it everywhere. These apple coloring pages are built around that shape and everything that happens to it: the blossom it grows from, the branch it hangs on, the orchard, the kitchen table and the market stall where it ends up. Every drawing is an original Papaya Ink piece – nothing borrowed, no clip art.

Each page is a single black-and-white sheet. Click a picture and the PDF opens in a new tab, ready to print on US Letter; it fits A4 with the usual margins. The lines are thick enough for a crayon and clean enough for a fine pencil, so the same sheet works at the kitchen table with a child and at a desk with a cup of coffee and nobody else around.

Apples are not red. Look at one: green at the stem end, yellow across the shoulder, red streaked over the yellow, and a bright patch where the skin catches the light. Lay the yellow down first over the whole fruit, then the red in short strokes from the top down, and leave the highlight untouched. Leaves take two greens, darker toward the center vein. On the orchard scenes, color the apples before the foliage so the fruit stays the brightest thing on the page.
