How much detail?

Large body patches and a single leaf provide broad coloring areas with a few toes and vein lines. About the labels.

Try this palette: One autumn leaf

Try warm brown patches against cream fur, then give the leaf an autumn color.

A small coloring tip

A broad coloring tip suits the torso; use a pencil for the leaf veins.

Add another large leaf with a different outline.
