Coloring Suggestions

  • Use warm browns and tans for the bear’s fur with gentle layered shading; add richer earth tones for the bench and tree trunks to create depth.
  • Color the bunny in soft pastels or natural grays to maintain a gentle mood; add a tiny blush to the cheeks for extra charm.
  • Make the foreground pop with bright flower accents (yellows, reds, pinks), and blend greens in the grass from light to dark for natural variation.
  • Shade the open book lightly (cream or pale gray) and add soft folds to the blanket to suggest fabric texture and light direction.
