Union Flag on a desk
The desk scene adds familiar objects. Color the flag first, then choose your own colors for the objects.
Union Flag on a desk →Color the Union Flag's crosses and borders
This example colors only the flag. The numbered marks identify sample areas; apply the same rule to matching areas elsewhere. Leave the surroundings white for this exercise, or color them freely afterwards.
Flag-color example
- 1. Red — central cross and narrow diagonals
- 2. Dark blue — outer fields
- 3. White — borders around the crosses
- Color the central upright cross and the narrow diagonal strips red. Follow the existing outlines rather than making the diagonals symmetrical.
- Fill the outer corner fields dark blue, keeping clear of the white borders.
- Leave the borders around the red crosses white. At the upper corner beside the pole, keep the broader white diagonal band above the red strip.
The red crosses remain separated from blue by white borders. Check the offset diagonals against the example; do not color over the narrow white strips.
Check the colors, then print
This is the United Kingdom's Union Flag, not England's St George's Cross. Its diagonal red strips are offset within the white bands. These illustrations use a 1:2 flag; other proportions are also used.
