Zesty Grapefruit & Ladybug Still Life

Fun Fact

Did you know that grapefruits get their name because they grow in clusters, much like grapes, on the tree? They're packed with Vitamin C!

Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Layering Citrus - Use yellows, oranges, and even a touch of pink to give the grapefruit segments a juicy, realistic glow. Build up colors in thin layers.
2. 2🖍️ Wood Grain Magic - For the cutting board, try using different shades of brown and tan. Draw tiny lines with your crayon or pencil to mimic the natural patterns of wood grain.
3. 3✨ Ladybug Detail - The tiny ladybug needs careful attention! Use bright red for its body and black for its spots and head. A tiny white highlight can make its eyes sparkle.
4. 4🌈 Texture Play - Experiment with different pressures to create the bumpy texture of the grapefruit skin and the smooth, wet look of the inner pulp. Don't forget shadows!
