Festive Christmas Tree – Free Printable Line Study Art 🌲

Relax and create beautiful, unique holiday art using this Free Printable Christmas Tree Line Study coloring page.
This activity transforms simple coloring into a mindful, pattern-making project that results in fantastic, frame-worthy artwork.
The concept of a “line study” involves filling in separated areas of the image with rows of lines going in different directions.
It creates interesting visual patterns and textures, giving the finished piece a professional, graphic quality.
This is a fun and calming project for both adults and kids to enjoy throughout the Christmas season.
Line Study Technique and Tips ✍️
The beauty of the line study lies in its simplicity and the freedom to create imperfect, charming lines.
No need for perfection – character is welcome!
Mastering the Lines
- The Goal: The template is divided into sections. The objective is to draw rows of lines within each separated area.
- Mix it Up: To make your holiday artwork unique, ensure the lines in adjacent sections are at different angles. For example, one section can have vertical lines, and the section next to it can have diagonal or horizontal lines.
- Tools: A fine tip black marker is the best tool for drawing the lines, as it provides sharp, clean contrast against the white paper.
- Coloring: Once the lines are drawn, you can use crayons, colored pencils, markers, or oil pastels to color in the spaces between the lines.
Displaying Your Finished Artwork 🎁
Don’t just leave your finished coloring page in a pile.
The line study technique makes the artwork worthy of being displayed or gifted!
Framing Instructions
For a clean, finished look that makes the art pop, the template suggests framing the finished piece:
- Print on Cardstock: Use white cardstock instead of regular copy paper. It holds up better to coloring and adds durability for display.
- Trim Edges: Use scissors or a paper cutter to carefully cut off the excess white border around the completed picture.
- Matting: Glue your artwork to the center of a piece of black cardstock. The black cardstock creates a dramatic, clean frame around the art.
