Tips For Coloring Easy Animals
What colors should I use for easy animal coloring pages?
For animal coloring, the color depends on what kind of animal is being colored. For instance, a dog might be brown, black, white, or a mix of colors. Cats could be orange, black, gray or white. Birds can be virtually any color, from vibrant parrots to black crows. You can always look up the animal online to see what colors they are in real life. Essentially, feel free to use any colors you like, because coloring is more about having fun and expressing creative freedom.
How can I add more detail and realism to my easy animal coloring pages?
Shading can help add more detail to your coloring. After you apply the base color, you can add darker shades on the edges and where shadows would normally fall. On areas where light naturally hits, use lighter shades. Textures are also pertinent in bringing your animals to life, for example the softness of a rabbit’s fur or the rough patches on a reptile could be expressed with different coloring techniques.
What are some interesting features of animals that I can focus on while coloring?
Each animal has unique features that you can highlight while coloring. For instance, a bird’s feathers, a cheetah’s speed spots, or a peacock’s grand tail. Some animals have patterned fur or skin; some have horns, antlers, or long/short tails. Pay attention to these unique features as they can make your coloring page more realistic and interesting.
Can you provide some interesting facts about animals that I could incorporate into my animal coloring pages?
Absolutely! Every animal has interesting facts. For example, did you know that tigers have striped skin, not just striped fur? Or that a kangaroo can hop up to 44 miles per hour? Or that the tongue of the blue whale is so large that fifty people can stand on it? Researching your animal and incorporating these facts into your artwork can make it educational as well as fun!
