Blue Morpho Butterfly Colouring

Broad wings make this blue morpho a lovely subject for slow, sweeping colouring strokes. A tropical leaf and a small blossom keep the scene simple. Use bright blue across the wings and a darker blue near the edges. Colour the body brown, leave a few pale highlights, and choose green for the leaf. Start at the body and move your crayon gently towards the wing edge. Try two blue shades in neighbouring spaces, while repeating your choices on both sides. Choose your own colours too, and enjoy bringing this little insect scene to life!
