Majestic Pelicans on the Old Pier

Fun Fact

Pelicans are known for their enormous throat pouches, which they use like a fishing net to scoop up fish from the water. A single pelican can hold up to three gallons of water and fish in its pouch! They don't store food there, but rather drain the water before swallowing their meal.

Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Feather Focus - Use varying shades of white, grey, brown, or even a hint of pale yellow for the pelicans' feathers to show depth and texture.
2. 2🖍️ Wood Grain Magic - For the pier posts, try browns, greys, and even some muted greens or blues to suggest weathered wood. Use small strokes to mimic wood grain.
3. 3✨ Water Wonders - Create calm ocean water with gentle blends of blues and greens. Add subtle white highlights for the lapping waves.
4. 4🌈 Sky Serenity - Color the serene sky with soft blues, purples, and oranges for a beautiful sunrise or sunset, or a clear, light blue for a daytime scene.
