The Curious Squirrel and His Wrinkled Treat

Fun Fact

Did you know squirrels are excellent tree climbers and can even run headfirst down a tree? They use their strong claws and bushy tails for balance! Prunes are simply dried plums, a sweet and healthy treat.

Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Fur Texture - Use short, feathery strokes in shades of brown, grey, and cream to make the squirrel's fur look soft and realistic. Layering colors adds depth!
2. 2🖍️ Expressive Eyes - Give the squirrel sparkling eyes by coloring them dark, then adding a tiny white dot for a reflection. This makes them look alive and curious!
3. 3✨ Prune Details - Use deep purples, maroons, and hints of brown for the prune. Don't forget to add subtle shadows and lighter spots to highlight its wrinkled texture.
4. 4🌈 Textured Branch - For the tree branch, use various shades of brown and grey, applying strokes that follow the grain of the bark. Add hints of green for moss or small leaves.
