Free, Printable Pixar Coloring Pages

Pick from 20 Pixar coloring pages featuring characters and scenes from movies such as Toy Story, Finding Dory, Coco, Brave, and Inside Out. Some drawings have open, easy-to-color shapes, while others include groups of characters, busy backgrounds, or small details to take your time over.

Recognize Pixar Stories by Their Settings

Look at the setting as well as the characters to give each picture its own story. Dory and Marlin among coral suggest an underwater adventure, while Hector, Coco, and Dante in the Land of the Dead make a lively scene with striking patterns and decorations. For more of that family’s story, browse the Coco coloring pages.

Other scenes offer very different clues: Carl, Russell, and Dug belong in an outdoor adventure, and Ember and Wade bring the glowing colors of Element City to mind. The pictures of Joe Gardner with 22, Moonwind, and Mittens, or Joy, Anger, Fear, Sadness, and Disgust, make a fun starting point for talking about characters and their feelings.

Choose Colors for Each Scene

Use colors that help the setting feel clear. Try blue and teal for the coral reef, then add bright fish and warm coral tones; for the Land of the Dead, combine vivid pink, orange, purple, and turquoise details. A rainbow of colors can make the emotions in Inside Out easy to tell apart.

For character scenes, begin with the colors you remember from the movies, or invent a fresh look. Woody, Buzz, and Jessie can each have a distinct palette, while a red race car makes Lightning McQueen stand out. Pencils work well for small costume details, and broader markers can fill larger areas.

Make a Pixar Scene-Guessing Game

Choose a finished picture and cover the characters’ names. Let someone guess the movie from the setting, props, or faces, then add one sentence about what might happen next. A scene with Woody and Buzz can lead to a Toy Story story; the Toy Story coloring pages are handy when you want to keep that theme going.

For a group activity, give each person one part of a larger scene to color. Agree on a shared palette first, then compare how the finished pieces fit together. This works especially well for the busy group pictures and movie-poster scenes.

Choose a Page by Age and Skill

For a 3-year-old, start with the simple Lightning McQueen racing drawing. Its broad car shape is easier to fill than a picture with many faces and background details. An easy page can help a young child focus on staying inside the main outlines without making the task feel long.

A 7-year-old may enjoy a medium-detail scene, such as Sully and Mike by the door, Remy and Alfredo, or Arlo with Spot. These give children more to notice and color, but still leave room for a quick finish. For kids who like storytelling, Carl, Russell, and Dug or Luca, Alberto, and Giulia riding a scooter can prompt a story as they color.

For adults who want a longer project, choose the detailed group with the Incredibles, Syndrome, and Frozone, or the many characters in A Bug’s Life. The Toy Story scene with Woody, Buzz, Jessie, and their friends has plenty of figures to work through. Merida holding her bow, the detailed Wall-E and Eve drawing, and the Turning Red poster also suit careful shading and fine pencils.

Print Pixar Coloring Pages as PDFs

Each drawing has an “Open the PDF” button to open its file and a “Print” button to print directly, including from a phone. In the print settings, choose fit to page so the full scene stays within the paper edges. Use thicker paper for markers, or regular paper and colored pencils for fine details.
