Peaceful Doves at the Garden Bird Bath

Fun Fact

Doves are known for being very gentle and are often seen as symbols of peace and love around the world. They can drink water by sucking it up like through a straw, which is unusual for birds who usually scoop and tilt their heads back!

Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Feather Details - Use light grays, whites, and subtle blues or purples to give the doves' feathers depth and softness. Vary your pressure to create texture.
2. 2🖍️ Stone Texture - For the bird bath, try layering different shades of gray, brown, and even a touch of mossy green. Use short, varied strokes to mimic the rough surface of stone.
3. 3✨ Water Shimmer - Create a sense of movement and reflection in the water by using light blues, whites, and a tiny hint of yellow. Leave some areas uncolored to suggest highlights.
4. 4🌈 Garden Elements - Bring the pebbles, grass, and wildflowers to life! Use many shades of green for the grass, and bright, varied colors for the wildflowers to make the garden vibrant and inviting.
