Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Water Reflections - Use light blues, greens, and hints of yellow to show the sky and sun reflecting in the water-filled paddies. Vary the shades for a shimmering effect.
2. 2🖍️ Rice Stalk Details - Since there are countless stalks, use fine-tipped markers or colored pencils. Layer light greens, yellows, and a touch of brown for realistic texture and growth.
3. 3✨ Distant Hills & Sky - For the background hills, use softer, muted greens and blues to create a sense of atmospheric perspective. The clear sky can be a gentle gradient of light blue.
4. 4🌈 Farm Building Texture - Pay attention to the traditional building. Use browns, grays, and earthy tones. Consider adding wood grain or thatch roof textures with small, precise strokes for realism.
