Goalie Diving to Save Hockey Clean Linework coloring page
There is a goalie making an epic save and these have been drawn with clean linework and broad colouring spots. Easy choice to those who enjoy action based hockey scenes.
This Goalie Diving to Save - Clean Linework hockey themed coloring page is a great example of a catharsis shot of a goalie throwing himself to protect the goal entirely against a hockey shot. The cartoon emphasises speed, agility and sheer determination as the goalie leaps over the crease, hands up, legs out, and the eyes closed on the puck. The sharp, simple lines keep all the little details, like the mask and the blocker, and the pads and skate blades, simple to be coloured, and yet still provide artistry as well. The large and open fields give younger artists an opportunity to have simple fills and the dynamic pose also gives older children an opportunity to explore shading effects on the image as well as a chance to explore motion effects. The background is chosen to be rather minimalistic with all the attention focused on the dramatic save and children being able to add rink lines, goalposts or even crowd silhouettes, should they prefer. This colouring page honours prowess, reflexes and the violence of the game and would be the best fit in the coaches, classrooms, hockey enthusiasts and kids that value action-laden sports art.
How to Color
To give this scene some colour, begin with the diving motion with the goalie equipment in the team colours and that would make the scene look bright. Pads and gloves are available in such colours combinations as red/white, blue/black, or green/silver. Apply light dots along the elongated arms, legs and perimeter of the pads which indicate movement and also reveal depth. Metallic shades or bright accent can be used to make the mask a custom design. Have the ice in greys, whites, or light blues so as to provide an ice surface under the action that is clean and cool. The puck must be contrasting with the dark. When the background is dull, draw lines fainting at the rim of the rink or a line along the crease of the goal line so as to liven up the picture. To add additional action, motion lines or soft gradients to simulate a dive after the goalie may help in the emphasis of the goalie. Finalise by sketching vital contours using a sharp coloured pencil so as to create a professional appearance to the artwork.
