Tips for Coloring
- Natural Tones: Use various shades of brown, tan, and cream to give the camel’s fur a realistic, textured look.
- Vibrant Backgrounds: Don’t forget the desert! Use bright yellows and oranges for the sand, and deep blues or purples for a night sky.
- Mixed Media: Try using watercolors for the large desert sky areas and colored pencils for the fine details of the camel’s fur.
