Fawn in a little clearing

A spotted fawn stands beside a single flower. Four long legs and broad ears give the page a different silhouette from the rounder woodland creatures.

How much detail?

Open body areas and large spots are balanced by narrow legs and small hooves. About the labels.

Try this palette: Woodland light

Use warm tan on the body and leave the spots cream; try a brighter green around the hooves.

A small coloring tip

Broad strokes suit the body, while a pencil tip gives more control along the long legs.

Color the spots in a repeating pattern, or keep them all the same pale shade.
