Up coloring pages

Free printable Up coloring pages

The collection moves from close-up portraits to story-filled scenes with the house in the sky. You’ll find Dug with his fellow dogs, young Ellie grinning, and Carl with Russell and Kevin on their adventure. Some drawings have broad shapes that are quick to color; others invite a slower look at the characters, balloons, and scenery.

Choose by age and coloring level

For a quick pick, think about how much detail the colorist enjoys. The simpler pictures suit a preschooler who likes large shapes, while medium-detail scenes give grade-school kids more to explore. The most intricate options may be a better match for older kids and adults who enjoy careful coloring.

Easy coloring pages for kids

The easy drawings keep the main figures prominent. Young Ellie’s toothy grin is a cheerful face to color, and Dug standing alone makes a simple first choice. Another picture shows Dug with Alpha, Beta, and Gamma in the backyard, giving kids several dogs to distinguish without a crowded scene. A cute version of Carl holding balloons also works well for a short, relaxed coloring break.

Detailed coloring pages for adults

For a longer project, try Carl’s house lifted by party balloons or the view of the house floating above the clouds. The balloons make a repeating pattern, while the house’s windows, roof, and porch give you finer areas to shade. Carl and Ellie standing side by side is a quieter scene, with faces and clothing to color; Carl, Russell, Kevin, and Dug running toward Paradise Falls has more movement and several figures to work around. A grumpy Carl outside his house offers a different expression and mood.

Meet the world of Up

Up is a 2009 animated film from Pixar, directed by Pete Docter and Bob Peterson. These drawings bring together Carl Fredricksen, Russell, the dog Dug, and the colorful bird Kevin, along with Carl’s house and the journey toward Paradise Falls. One picture shows young Carl in an aviator helmet and goggles; another has Carl and Russell watching aircraft in the sky as they hang from the flying house. The contrast between the grounded porch scenes and the airborne adventure makes it easy to tell different little stories while coloring.

Charles Muntz is another named character from the film, though the pictures here focus on Carl and his companions. For another collection connected to the studio, browse Pixar.

Tell a story with the coloring pages

Turn a few drawings into a simple story sequence. Start with young Ellie, move to Carl outside his house, then imagine what happens when the balloon-lifted home takes off. Let a child decide where Russell, Dug, and Kevin join the trip, and give each scene a short title or a line of dialogue. This works well at home or in a classroom, and the different levels of detail let everyone color at a comfortable pace.

Print Up coloring pages as PDFs

Select “Open the PDF” to view a drawing before printing, or choose “Print” to send it straight to your printer; both buttons work from a phone, too. Use fit-to-page settings if the house or balloons sit close to the edge. Regular paper suits colored pencils, while thicker paper can help when coloring with markers.
