Strange World Coloring Pages

Strange World coloring pages: 7+ free printable PDF designs featuring Searcher Clade, Ethan Clade, Splat, Callisto Mal, and the world of Avalonia from the 2022 Walt Disney Animation Studios film. Every page is available to download as a PDF or color directly in the browser, with no account or payment required.

Strange World is a Walt Disney Animation Studios science fiction adventure film directed by Don Hall and released on November 23, 2022. The film follows three generations of the Clade family as they explore a mysterious underground world beneath their civilization of Avalonia, where the flora and fauna glow with bioluminescent light, and nothing looks like anything from the surface world. It features the voices of Jake Gyllenhaal, Dennis Quaid, Jaboukie Young-White, Gabrielle Union, and Lucy Liu.

These pages are popular with Disney animation fans and families who watched the film, and work well as a standalone creative activity or as part of a Disney collection. The small set of rewards focused on coloring rather than variety.

The coloring challenge this set offers is unlike anything else in a Disney collection. The Strange World below Avalonia is bioluminescent: hot pink, electric blue, neon yellow, vivid purple. None of those colors exists in any conventional “nature” palette. The entire underground world is an invitation to use the brightest colors you have, and Splat (the gelatinous blue creature who guides the Clade family) has no fixed color at all. He shifts with the light around him. There is no wrong answer.

What’s Inside Strange World Coloring Pages

The set covers the main cast and two scene pages from the film’s underground setting.

Searcher Clade Pages

Searcher appears in two pages: Searcher Clade with Splat and Searcher Clade with Legend, the family’s three-legged Bernedoodle dog.

Coloring Searcher: Searcher is a 40-year-old man with brown hair and a warm, slightly weathered look. He wears practical farming and exploration clothing in earth tones: tan, olive, and brown. Against the vivid bioluminescent backgrounds of the Strange World, his warm earth-tone palette provides a natural anchor that keeps him readable in the scene. His pages tend to be the most grounded in color, which contrasts with the fantastical world around him more pronounced.

Ethan Clade Page

Ethan appears in one solo portrait page. He is Searcher’s sixteen-year-old son and the film’s protagonist.

Coloring Ethan: Ethan is biracial with warm brown skin, dark curly hair, and round glasses. He wears a yellow-orange jacket that is his most visually distinctive color element. In the film, he is the most energetic and visually expressive of the Clades, and his pages reflect that with more active or expressive poses than Searcher’s.

Splat Page

Splat, the gelatinous blue creature who becomes the family’s guide through the Strange World, appears in one solo page.

Coloring Splat: This is the most open-ended page in the set. Splat is translucent and bioluminescent, which means his color shifts depending on the light around him. In the film, he reads as a vivid blue-cyan, but there is no fixed answer – Neon blue, teal, electric cyan, or even violet all work. Adding a subtle, lighter highlight in the center of his body suggests translucency without requiring any special technique.

Callisto Mal Page

Callisto appears on one page alongside Searcher Clade. She is the president of Avalonia, and the mission leader voiced by Lucy Liu.

Coloring Callisto: Callisto wears a distinctive uniform with colorful medals and badges. Her outfit is dark navy with bright accent colors on her insignia. Her dark clothing creates a strong contrast against both the light earth tones of Searcher and the vivid backgrounds of the Strange World.

Scene and Logo Pages

The Strange World and Strange World Logo pages provide environment and graphic design options.

Coloring the world pages: the Strange World scenes are where the bioluminescent palette fully applies. Hot pink coral formations, electric blue pools, neon yellow plant life: use the most saturated colors available and treat the page as a light source in itself. Everything in the Strange World glows.

Printable PDF and Online Strange World Coloring Pages

Every design is available as a printable PDF or for coloring in the browser. The bioluminescent scene pages are particularly effective when printed, where you can layer multiple vivid colors with greater control.

What These Pages Do

The underground world of Strange World was designed as a direct inversion of every color palette children encounter in nature coloring pages. Where nature is green and brown, the Strange World is hot pink and electric blue. Where creatures are dull or camouflaged, Splat glows. This makes the set a deliberate exercise in color freedom: none of the conventional rules apply.

Research in environmental psychology has found that exposure to highly saturated, unconventional color environments increases creative engagement and willingness to experiment in children and adults alike. The Strange World’s bioluminescent palette was built for exactly that response.

The AAP notes that open-ended creative activities without fixed correct outcomes support independent thinking and creative confidence, particularly when the subject material itself signals that anything goes.

Art therapy practitioners recognize that unfamiliar, fantastical environments in coloring contexts lower the self-editing impulse that can inhibit creative expression, since there is no “realistic” reference to be wrong about.

How to Color Strange World Coloring Pages Well

Treat the underground scenes as light sources. Bioluminescent environments glow from within. On any Strange World scene page, the plants and terrain elements should be the most saturated colors on the page. Characters who do not glow should be slightly less vivid so the world reads as the light source.

Splat benefits from a highlight. Leave a small area near the top of Splat’s body uncolored, or use a very pale version of whatever color you choose. That white or near-white area suggests the translucent, gel-like quality that defines him.

Ethan’s yellow-orange jacket is the warmest color in any scene he appears in. Everything around Ethan in the Strange World runs cool: blues, pinks, purples. His jacket is a warm amber-orange that makes him pop naturally without any special technique.

The logo page works well as a graphic poster. The Strange World logo is bold and geometric. Treated as a graphic design project with strong contrasting colors rather than a character page, it makes a distinctive display piece.

4 Creative Craft Ideas with Strange World Coloring Pages

Bioluminescent World Display

Color the Strange World scene page using the most vivid, saturated colors you have: hot pink, electric blue, and neon yellow. Mount it on a black card to make the colors appear to glow.

The black background creates a light-box effect that makes bioluminescent palettes look their best. Takes about twenty minutes.

Splat Color Experiment

Color the Splat page three times using a different color scheme each time: blue-cyan, violet-purple, and your own invented version. Display all three together.

Since Splat has no fixed color, three versions of the same page become a study in how color changes a character. Takes about fifteen minutes total.

Clade Family Matched Set

Color Searcher with Splat and Ethan as a matched pair, keeping the warm earth tones of their clothing consistent across both pages. Display them side by side.

A two-page portrait of the film’s central relationship. Takes about twenty-five minutes.

Strange World Poster

Color the Strange World Logo page as a graphic poster, choosing two or three strongly contrasting colors that suggest the film’s palette. Mount it on a black card.

The logo page is the cleanest graphic image in the set and works well as a standalone display piece. Takes about ten minutes.
