Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Fruit Textures - Use circular motions and varying pressure with shades of red, crimson, and deep orange to create the bumpy, slightly glossy texture of the pomegranate skin. Don't forget the star-like crown!
2. 2🖍️ Leafy Greens - Employ multiple shades of green, from olive to emerald, for the leaves. Add darker greens for shadows and lighter greens or even a touch of yellow for highlights to show their texture and veins.
3. 3✨ Delicate Details - Pay close attention to the small details like the flower petals and the intricate patterns on the fruit's crown. Use fine-tipped pencils or pens for precision work and subtle color blending.
4. 4🌈 Depth and Shadow - To make your pomegranates truly pop, think about where the light source is coming from. Add darker shades on the undersides of the fruits and leaves, and lighter tones where the light hits directly, creating a three-dimensional effect.
